¿Quien es Mas Macho?

Yo soy Macho Max!


I'm a tough little guy. Mommy and Daddy took me to see Dr. Brown again. Last time I went, this nurse dude shot me up four times! It was not pleasant! I was guessing it would be more of the same this time, and unfortunately, I was right...


I did my usual checks, height, weight, head size. I'm pretty big for my age, 75 percentile in both height and head size - all that genius has gotta fit some how! - and 50% weight. So I'm a bit skinny for my size, but have you seen my parents? It's in the genes I tell ya!


After Mommy and Daddy talked to Dr. Brown he listened to my heart and left the room. This is when the man-nurse came back. And he had a tray with him! Four more vaccinations, luckily one was just liquid drops. It didn't taste too bad, but I had to spit some back out to show him who's boss. Si, soy más resistente que ti!


Then he pulled out the shots. Those needles were huge! If you had to get a shot with a porportionally sized needle as an adult, it would be about a foot long! And it felt like he stuck half of it in my thigh! I'll admit I'm a bit chunky there, but boy oh boy did it hurt. I tried to tough it out and not cry... but I'm just a baby! Waaaahhaaaaa! Mommy!


Last time Mommy said it hurt her more than it hurt me. I know it's hard for her to watch. We had Daddy this time and he held my hands. He also picked me up as soon as it was over so I felt a lot better.


I'm a tough little guy.
