She got her first round of vaccinations today.  That's her with her battle scars.  What a champ!  She had an interesting reaction to the shots.  For the first few hours after she left the doctor's office, she was wired.  Very awake, curious, and really wanting to play.  We knew we were in trouble because we could not get her to sleep.  Then, without warning, she starting screaming.  Loud, wailing cries.  Her whole face turned red.  She screamed for an hour.  Then, as quickly as she had starting screaming, she fell asleep.  And she slept for the rest of the night.  We'll see how tomorrow goes....
