Well, after one look the doctor said eczema. Really? Is that possible, she was in a spica cast for 12 weeks and not even a slight rash! But it is and we got some medicated cream for it and she's much better. Man, I'm glad she never got a break out in that cast, that would have been awful! I guess it just has been so hot lately and with the humidity that is what did it. I count my blessings that Mabel's casting was from October through January and not in the heat of the summer! I feel for anyone who's baby is casted during the hot months, that adds a whole new element to the experience.
Mabel's free spirit has taken her to liking to "drive". This obsession started when we went to the beach a few weeks ago and I was changing Mabel in the car. I had to change her in the front seat and after she had her diaper on I handed her to Zack in the drivers seat so I could get her clothes together...so began the love to pretend to drive the car complete with the "vroom-vroom" sounds. I don't want to encourage this too much seeing as she gets older it may be dangerous her to think it is acceptable to climb into the drivers seat of the car and play with stuff. I vividly remember doing this as a kid and putting the car into neutral by accident. She knows that she needs to sit on Papa's lap so that is good. Now when ever I bring her somewhere and try to strap her in the car seat she just points at the steering wheel and says, "Papa Mabel. vroom-vroom. pleeezzzz?"
