The Doctors Balas

This week Pip woke in the night saying his ear hurt. He never does that so I gave him ibuprofen and called the doctor first thing in the morning. We switched to the office of our Pedi in our new town and were VERY happy with them. Got back to me quick, saw us right away, even gave us our first dose in the office. Very efficient and easy. Before we went Pip and I role played a bit what the doctor would do (check his ear) and would not do (give him a shot) so he would be at ease.

The next morning before school Phil reported that Pip and Vivie continued the doctor game with him as well. After some coaching, the new and improved game went like this: They sat him on the sofa and Vivie came out with a piece of paper with "DAD" written on it. Vivie would say "The doctor will see you now". Phil would go in and Pip would check his blood pressure, heart beat, ears, etc ... and eventually give him a shot. Very cute.

They night they played with me too and even Vivie traded places and was the doctor too. Here I am getting all checked out.
