Not much new since last I posted. Here are the bullet points (literally).
- David said his first two word phrase. Any guesses? That's right. "Hush, dog!"
- We had a fun Labor Day weekend with a trip to the lakefront, Brookfield Zoo and Navy Pier, not to mention multiple trips to the park down the street.
- We rode the ferris wheel at Navy Pier, and David's eyes were huge taking in all the machinery and lights. He is especially fond of the roof of the Skyline Theater.
- David discovered ketchup for the first time this weekend and spent most of Monday night's dinner licking it off of fries, which he promptly redipped and relicked.
Finally, on a personal note, if anyone out there ever has to call your pediatrician at 3 a.m., let me assure you that she does not want to chit chat. An enthusiastic "Oh hi, Dr. So-and-so! How are you?" does not make up for the fact that you are waking her up for symptoms that in no way represent an urgent medical problem and that have been going on for the last 6 days. I beg you, ask your question and get off the phone. If she suggests an office visit in the morning, please do not think that describing what your child's throat looks like to you for a fourth time is going to change her mind. It will only make her regret that she didn't decide to be a kindergarten teacher.

David needs to come live with me. Between his vacuuming skills and his desire to quiet barking dogs, I think he'd fit in perfectly!! Can't wait to see y'all!!
So did you call the dr. or are you the dr.? Sadly, I know I am one of the guilty ones that called my dr. at 3am many a time with my oldest child. Poor MK, she only goes to the dr. if she turns blue :)
We love ketchup too. Your work snippets, as ever, make me want to take an indefinite maternity leave.
