Just an FYI...
If you are trying to get tons of stuff done before having a surgery that will put you out of commission for at least a month...
Do NOT schedule all four of your children to have well child appointments with the same doctor... on the same day... one right after the other... in the same tiny exam room... without your SO or a friend to organize the heathens.
Your children -will- make tons of noise, push buttons on the wall, say "MOOOOOOMMM!!! SHE KEEPS TOUCHING ME!!!" over and over at the top of their lungs, have to go potty 13 times (I counted), argue about who is going to go next, tear up any paper in the area (including the paper on the exam table... all 20 feet of it), climb over and under every chair while trying to run around the crowded room, and insist on hitting eachother after you say "They're usually very well behaved!"
Trying to keep them from doing the same in the waiting room while waiting for immunizations will earn you a withering glare from 4 military nurses, 6 parents with only 1 infant each, 3 parents with a single toddler each... and one 15-16 year old who had her iPod earbud yanked out when your almost 3 y/o tripped and landed head first in her lap.
Thankfully there will be one grandparent there who will look at your children and say "Well! They're a rambunctious bunch, aren't they? Reminds me of my own kids when they were younger." Which will cause at least one of the parents to blush and look away. (HAH! Your mamma schooled ya!)
*shudders*
At least that's over with for a while.
Now I get to wait for 3 days and 4 nights before my hysterectomy. Yay for drugs?
