Paper Trail from the Pediatrician

This week Jacob had an appointment at the pediatrician's. The last of the 'follow-up' appointments. We could say there was a lot for them to check into but really I think they just wanted to see him for themselves. We, of course, were in contact with his pediatrician the week we were in the hospital and she's been tracking his progress through other doctors notes in the system but this was the first time she had seen him since the surgery.

He made her smile. Can you imagine?

(oh and the appointment went well too. all good. back to only well baby visits in our future!)

Jacob would jump in here to say that wasn't the best part. Visiting the pediatrician's is big fun for Jacob. There really are few things more fabulous than being able to wiggle around on an exam table that is entirely covered with paper that crinkles. The whole table. The paper crinkles with every wiggle (!) It is un-Beeeee-lievable. It really is the best. Jacob would strongly suggest you try it.

This time on our way out I ripped off a big chunk of the paper from the exam table and took it with us. You know, 'cause that's the kind of mom Jacob has.

Bliss!

And just in case you thought it was a short lived fascination... No.

Jacob played with his crinkly paper from the Drs office the rest of the day. He had Ms Em laughing about it all day. He played with it until it had no crinkle left! He is dedicated to his fun, I tell you. Not easy wearing a piece of paper out.
