Christmas Pictures

I just started trying to a group shot of the kids for Christmas cards. I don't know why I do this. Every time I try to get them to sit for a picture, it turns crazy. The better shots are always the impromptu shots of them that I wasn't even planning on taking. I took a few shots the other day in their Christmas pj's..here are some of my attempts:

I'm not too picky. Just a picture that everyone is somewhat looking at the camera with a pleasant look on their face. I will try again this weekend

H1N1 Vaccine

We took the kids for the H1N1 vaccine over the weekend. I made an appointment with our local county department of health about 2 weeks ago. It went surprisingly well. They did receive the nasal vaccine, which is something new for us. We have always received needle shots, so, I was uncertain how they would react. They did awesome. (Well, we were only at the facility about 45 minutes...any longer could of been a nightmare). Our time included waiting in line, being questioned twice regarding their past and current health, and getting the actual vaccine. I was expecting long lines and tears. We had neither. But, our appointment was at 630pm, so, possibly during the day would of been more crowded. They do have to go back after 30 days to receive a second dose because they are all under 9 years old. I hope that goes just as well. And, so far, no side effects for any of them.

I am glad we decided to do it. In the past month..I have had 1 niece, 2 nephews and a brother in law ( who was hospitalized for 2 days) contract H1N1. I know it does not guarantee they will not catch it, but, it sets my mind at ease a bit.
