An ounce of prevention . . .

So we lined up and got jabbed by Dr. Peeris today - Hep A and B for Scott and I, the same in junior format for Elizabeth and the boys started in with Hep A. The doc is putting us on a fasttrack for vaccinations, usually take a few months and we only have four.

She's recommended we consult with a doctor who specializes in travels so sent off a missive to him.

I also had a chat with our friend Rob Sloot, a pharmacist about his thoughts on what medications might be handy in our soon-to-be robust first aid kit.

Orthodontists onboard after today as well - need to sit back for a bit on Elizabeth which means we may have to remove her braces while we're gone and hope for the best with retainers. Reg will likely have his braces off before he meets us for good in January

Made an appointment to get Reg and Elizabeth in for eye exam too - we need some extra pairs given the rate Reg is going through glasses.

Eye glasses, braces, teeth and jobs. What a day. Now if we could only do something to deal with that roll around the tummy that won't look so good in a bathing suit . . . .
