Monday was Caden's appointment to get his 1st shots. After much debate we decided to get the normal shots and not to worry about all the buzz on effects from the vaccines. It's all too easy to get swept up in the controversy, and I figure Nate and I got them and we are fine, plus God is watching out for our little one, and I'd rather trust Him than fear something that is probably mostly hype. When I thought about it, I realized how lucky we are here in America to have vaccines available to us, unlike many countries where they are not and parents would do anything to get their child protected. Because we have the luxury, we now have the option to choose to not get our kids covered. But what happens if we all do this and certain diseases kill again? It's already happened in certain towns. Crazy. If this comes across as my opinion, I apologize. I don't know what I think but I guess writing it out helps me explore it. All I know is that nothing about links to autism or anything else has been proven.
Here are some pics of our doctor's visit. Poor little guy.
Oral vaccine - didn't like that at all!
Ouch!
Mumma feels bad :(
Teary eyed but okay.
Conked out outside.
Asleep at home in his sleepy wrap.
