Ouch!

Ben had a routine checkup at the doctor last week. We knew he was going to need a shot, so we gave him a little pep talk so he'd be prepared.

This news did not go over well with Ben. He was stressed about it all morning.

And it only got worse. As it turned out, he needed five shots. The poor kid had bandages all over his arms.

He did seem to take some solace in showing me his battle scars later that evening.
