One of Marie's Christmas presents this year was a doctor's bag full of play medical tools. Marie is very familiar with these items as she has had her ears looked into one too many times and Andy listens to her chest to check for wheezing if we are in an asthma flare-up.She hasn't had much interest in the kit yet, but last night she discovered it in her bedroom. Before I knew it we had a full-on physical examination happening in the living room. Not only did the baby need her lungs and heart listened to, but also her head, foot, arms, and face.
Next Marie checked the baby' blood pressure. I wish I would have gotten video, because there was so much commentary happening. I think Marie was working on building rapport with her patient...
Then it was Marie's turn for an examination. She had the baby listen to her heart and leg too.Sidebar - what it is about a laundry basket? Marie loves this thing...
