Shots :(

This is Ty 2 months ago... right after we brought him home from getting his first set of shots (thus, the no pants).  He got his second set 2 days ago... yeop... we're a month behind on all his shots.  I'm doing this on purpose.  And after 2 rounds of them I am still not a fan.  I think the shots are more painful for me than they are for Ty.  I think both times he's gotten shots he'd stopped crying by the time we got outside the Dr's office... and he always seems perfectly fine the rest of the day... except sometimes maybe a little more sleepy... but I feel like crying too every time I watch the nurse poke him.  And then the rest of the day whenever he cries I don't even mind because I like to baby him and pretend that I can make him feel better.   At least we have a nice nurse though and she loves Ty and hugs him and tells him she's sorry every time after she's done.  I appreciate that. :) I swear I do not want Ty to ever feel pain. 

I was thinkin the other day... we all have to go through our own trials and things to help make us better.... but I just wish Ty would have such a happy easy life and I could protect him from everything.  The only problem is- he'd either be perfect-and die, or need to be perfected and have to go through pain. :( I choose... the millennium. lol. Really though, when I was thinking about how much I wanted to protect him it made me think of Heavenly Father and how much He probably wants to protect us.  I bet it is so hard for Him to watch us go through pain- especially when it's avoidable.  I just hope that I can teach Ty the things he needs to know so that he can avoid as much pain as possible- because I love that kid more than I ever could've imagined.  SOOOOO thankful to have him!
