Our girls have a new little game they like to play. It all started when I left a laundry basket out and Reese flipped it over next to a stool to create a patient table like she had seen at my OB appt. She would lay on it with her belly hanging out. Well, with a 3 and 4 year old mind working together this quickly progressed with an OR with c-sections being performed. (FYI: the girls have seen photos of me on the table during Reese's c-section.)
1. Pregnant patient lays on the OR table.
2. Patient gets comfortable with an owl pillow.
3. Doctor covers patient with a blanket (think the sheet that blocks the head)
4. Doctor 'cuts' the baby out.
5. Doctor quickly gives the patient medicine (yes meds are given orally with a Mr. Potato head nose)
6. Patient holds her baby that is washed and clothed!
They do this over and over switching roles. I had to laugh at myself when the doctor asked me at Reese's three year check up if she does 'pretend play.' Also, they asked if she interacts with her peers. Check and check!!!
Super cute! What sweeties you have!
