Took Kate for her immunisation yesterday at Novena Children Clinic. This one was scheduled at 12 months old, but as we were travelling, I decided to wait until we settled down before giving her the jab just in case she fell ill. She is a rather sociable child and immediately gravitated towards the other children. #5 is such a protective gor gor and he pulled up a chair and sat right behind her. Not sure if he was guarding her just in case she fell backwards, or if he was making sure she wasn’t bullied by the older kids.

There was a new born baby and she kept trying to look at the baby. I think she found it very amusing to see a baby tinier than herself. In the past, I used to take the older ones to the GP just outside my street to get their injections, but they constantly picked up germs from there and came back with more illnesses. So now, I prefer to take them to a PD as most of the kids there are also there for their jabs.

#3 wanted to have the honour of cuddling her for the injection. Kate doesn’t know what she’s in for!
 |
| “Why are they meddling with my butt?” |
 |
| “Waaaah… that hurt!” |
She cried for about 2 seconds and we managed to distract her. Dr Keoy is very good with babies and children and he is really gentle with them. We got into the car, gave her her milk and she was in good spirits again.

| Ha ha, that was so funny.. |
