The Doctor Is IN

Christmas morning, and Gramma and Grampa have brought the present to overshadow all presents.


Personally, I think she's a shoe-in for a permanent spot on General Hospital. 

The doctor's kit to overshadow all doctor's kits... (and a personalized tag on her new doctor's shirt, designating her officially as Dr. Sammi).

As if we didn't already hear the announcement, "Mommy, Daddy, I'm siiiiick!" often enough in an attempt to engage us in playing doctor, it's intensified a thousand-fold since Christmas.  But with this new, fancy-schmancy kit, so much more sophisticated than her previous two, she's more easily re-directed to nurse her dolls back to health and leave us to our own business.


It includes swabs, cotton balls, prescription pad, appointment cards, clipboard, eye chart, bone chart, and X-ray, and a multitude of little silver instruments.  You know, just in case things get serious.


Poor bear! I walked into Sammi's room to find him in this battered, post-Christmas state. Guess he didn't see that truck coming...or was it a sleigh?







Then Daddy got hold of him... (remember SNL's Mister Bill, anyone?)

Oh, noooooooooo!!!!!!!!







All better!

Thank you for visiting my blog. I was thinking about getting Claire a doctor kit for her birthday, I have a feeling it'll be a great hit.

That's a pretty awesome set! Hope my MIL does not see it - she has sent Abby THREE doctors sets over the last four years. Our current version is mix-and-match of the nicest of the three. Still not as awesome as the one Sammi just got. :)
