Doogie Houser watch out!

Grace's new passion has been playing doctor. Her Auntie Hill sent her a doctor kit when she had surgery over the summer and then we got her a kit as well. Needless to say, she is always looking for a willing patient and on occasion will let us be the doctor. I guess I shouldn't say that all of her patients are too willing- poor Isaac doesn't get much say in the matter. Interestingly, Sid enjoys the game tremendously. He seems to always have a real life "boo boo" or ailment and Grace is just the person to provide lots of attention. Good natured Isaac takes it all in. When asked where his "booboo" was, he happily cooed.

The kid will sleep anywhere. And he does a lot of eating and sleeping. He had his two-month appointment on Thursday and he is what we call a "big kid." He is in the 96% for height and weight- just like his big sister always was-and still is. He is 14 pounds and 25 1/8 inches. He is already wearing size 6-9 mos. He has almost outgrown his infant carrier- the pediatrician said I could keep him in it for another month. Gee thanks- b/c lugging around a huge baby, who cannot completely support his head, in out of the car to Grace's pre-school in the freezing weather is just what I was hoping to do for the next few months! He has completely recovered from his RSV. He is healthy and happy and just precious. And I have to brag- I have gotten several compliments on how "pretty" he is. People think he is a girl even with tractors on his overalls or dressed in blue from head to toe. Oh well, I'll take the compliment either way.
Grace leaves no white space on the paper- this one took a while to finish.
Stamping is fun- when the stamps stay on the paper.
