Pizza Pizza

Adia had her flu shot today. I left the twins with DiDi and took Adia in. I told her where we were going, what was going to happen and why she had to get a shot. She seemed ok with it, but I knew she didn't exactly know what was happening, even though she saw the twins get their shots. There were lots of kids in the waiting room, but luckily they were all waiting for flu shots too. Adia looked out the window and climbed under my chair while we waited. (There's still no toys in the waiting rooms because of swine flu.) Her name was finally called and we went back. I set her on the table, pulled down her jeans and held on tight to her hands. The look of betrayal on her face when the needle went in, broke my heart. I nearly cried with her. She only cried a few seconds though. By the time the band aid was placed, Adia was done crying and ready to leave. She was smiling again before we walked out the door, but only because she got a sticker and could press the elevator buttons. She did let me know that she couldn't walk anymore so I had to carry her.

We came home, picked up DiDi and the twins, and headed to pizza. There's a new place in town offering gluten free pizza. Adia's never experienced pizza at a pizza parlor before. I think I was more excited then she was. We ordered and sat down. Adia was literally bouncing while asking when the pizza would get there. When it did arrive, Adia burned herself on the cheese, but soon stealing olives off the pizza and eating big bites. She even asked for ranch to dip her crust in. It was a good pizza. I'm so happy that we'll have one more place to eat with her. We'll even be able to order pizzas for birthday parties!




After we finished eating, we let Adia play in the play area. It was her first time in a ball pit and she didn't know what she was supposed to do. She had to watch some other kids jump into it before she knew how to play in it. She also followed some other kids to get on the big tunnel, slide, climbing thing. I had the hardest time getting her to leave. She wanted to stay and play all evening.


We stopped by the library and then headed home. Adia fell asleep in the car so she missed seeing Daddy before he left for work. When she woke up, she asked where he was and said, "I want my daddy." I felt so bad for her. Mira had already started her nightly screaming, which had caused Leia to start crying too. We decided we'd head to the grocery store. The twins fell asleep, but woke up screaming when we got home. Mira's still screaming, Adia's watching Arthur and Leia keeps waking up to Mira's screaming. Hopefully they'll go to sleep soon because I'm exhausted.
