We actually don't spend a lot of time with Jake in this family. Most of our time is spent with whomever Jake becomes--various superheroes, transformers, whatever strikes his fancy. When he first started school, he was Robin (from Batman) for a week or more. His left hand is "Nice Shark." His right is "Mean Shark." It can be confusing.
I shouldn't have been surprised tonight when he entered his bath as Scourge (a bad guy Transformer), but emerged as...Mr. Daddy. Yes, I had to pretend to put my husband to bed tonight. Jake was so funny about it. He deepened his voice, stood on his tiptoes, and said, "See? I'm bigger and taller. I'm Mr. Daddy." He went on to say that "Jake" (otherwise known as the REAL Mr. Daddy) had been at school too long tonight. He's planning to put "Jake" in timeout at breakfast (just to warn you, Ike) for being at school so long...
Oh, and you can rest easy, Ike: Despite his protests that he was Mr. Daddy, I put my foot down and didn't let him use your toothbrush.
In other news: Today was a doctor appointment day. Nothing major to report, except that the nurse today said my blood pressure was "perfect" and the doctor said we shouldn't worry so much about the length of my abdomen last time. The baby has now dropped a little (yay! That's the right direction, baby girl!), so my abdomen now measures just fine. I believe he may have said, "Perfect," actually. That's a good doctor visit: when I'm told I'm perfect by everyone I meet. :)
Next appointment is Thursday the 1st.

See, I'm telling you that Dr. Lowe can fix anything ;-) I'm glad your appointment went well though. Good luck dealing with 2 Daddy's in the same house though. That's gotta be tough!
Glad you had a great Dr. appt.
