Doctor Visits

Well, after 10 (I'm not kidding) doctor's visits, two anitbiotics, six shots (no joke...Zach was not a very happy three year old) and a cough medicine you would think that Zach would be rid of whatever has been making him cough (and anything else that might be lingering, too) but yesterday we had to go on ANOTHER DR's visit, and got albuterol, the little mask that you use with that and another anitbiotic!!! Now I thought that since he had to get 6 shots because he wouldn't take all of the first two anitbiotics he would never want another shot....little do I know. He took the inhaler and did very well, but as soon as I tried to give him the new anitbiotic he said, "this is bad, I want to get ONE shot" (he said this while holding up one finger). I tried everyway to convince him to take the medicine but he insisted that he wants to get the shot and even told me to call the doctor. Even putting it in food and drink does not fool him. I guess I should just call the doctor but we have another appointment next week...maybe I can convince him to take it between now and then. I know one day I am going to miss fighting with him over taking his medicine but for now it is very tiring.

Something Funny!

I know I posted about the things that 3 year olds say before but Zach has come up with another funny....he used to say "I will not" when we would tell him not to do something (in a very matter-of-fact tone). Now he says "I will won't". He also loves the letter "R". We have to find them on anything that has writing. And you should hear him sing his ABC's!

Dollywood

Well, we made our first official trip to Dollywood yesterday. We had a very good time. The boys wanted to all get wet but I vetoed the biggest water ride because it was not quite warm enough and Zach is still sick. We really liked the Rythm of the Dance show (Irish dance during the Festival of NAtions). As always, we went to the Kingdom Heirs show. Dan likes southern gospel music, and they are a good group. Another perk of working in the lodging industry in Sevierville, TN, you can get season passes at a GREAT discount (less than the cot of one day)!
