Hide and seek at the doctor's office

When you have a twin, you have a built-in playmate wherever you go. Even the doctor's office can be fun! Unlike those boring grownups, a playmate your own age never tires of fun games of peekaboo and hide-and-seek.

"Where's Helen?"


"There she is!"

"And there's Will - peekaboo!"

We had a perfectly nice trip to the doctor's office, with two almost perfectly behaved toddlers. (Unlike the poor woman whose blog I read because she also has two sets of twins, though I have had doctor trips eerily similar to the one she describes -- but Cort doesn't believe me, because he was able to join me today and, of course, everyone was on their best behavior for some reason!) Will has two ear infections and the crud (my medical term) and Helen has just the crud, but no wheezing or anything and we got antibiotics for both (love our doctor - "Do you just want some antibiotics for Helen too?" "Why, yes, what a splendid idea!"). We should be good as new in a couple of days. Not that they look very sick in these pictures anyway.
