Medical Examination

Today was Lucy's medical examination, it was not a good experience. Lucy was very traumatized. It entailed checking her temperature, ears, throat, weight, height and a quick body exam. She fought tooth and nail. With the help of another mother holding her tightly, the doctors finished their exam and then Lucy was fine as if nothing happened. Everything checked out fine, except for heavy wax in the ears which we need to address when we get home. So now we know, she hates baths and doctor exams.

Afterwards the our group of parents met in the executive room of the 22nd floor at the White Swan to finish up the rest of the paperwork. Two hours of filling out papers and signing signatures. James did the paperwork while I watched Lucy. James and the other parents were pretty spent by the time they finished. Later in the day I did some gift shopping for family and friends, while James watched Lucy.

We are at the tail end of our journey, Wednesday and Thursday left and then the flight home on Friday. Our stay here, away from all the distractions of home was a blessing to get to know and bond with our daughter. We really needed this time to really concentrate on her, but it is time to go home and get Lucy in a structured environment. Bye for now, got to get our little firecracker to bed.
