Mazzy had her 4 year-old check-up at the pediatrician’s office yesterday. Her doctor is a woman, but the nurse we see most of the time happens to be male. Yes, a male nurse at a pediatrician’s office might seem a little strange, and I admit that I was maybe a little…I don’t know…confused by it at first, but he’s great and now that I’ve gotten used to him, I really like him. I guess the only thing that bothered me was the fact that I specifically wanted a woman doctor and then suddenly there’s this dude taking care of my daughter, but he’s good so whatever.
He also happens to be a pretty good-looking guy, not that I usually even notice. He’s friendly & good with the kids, even though Jack screams every time he looks at him.
Mazzy, it turns out, might like him a little more than she let on in the office yesterday. He kept trying & trying to get her to talk to him, but she’s shy sometimes & would never speak a word to him.
When Brett got home yesterday & was asking her about the visit, he asked her if she liked Drew*. She got the funniest look on her face, a sort of embarrassed smile, and said, “Forget about it!” When he asked again, she got even more flustered and more adamant that he “Just FORGET ABOUT IT!” (I’ve never heard her use that phrase before.)
I think it’s safe to say that she’s got her first little crush. Yikes!
*Name changed to protect the innocent.
Awww, that is too precious! I haven’t noticed any baby crushes with my kids yet, but I do remember having a mad crush on my swim instructor when I was about 5. His name was FLIP. (Yeah, I remember it 30 years later!)
