Dutch's First Job

Yesterday Dutch had his first job. Chris said it's about time he pulled his weight around here. He was a practice patient for Chris' PA classmates to do examinations on for their Pediatric module. He had 4 examinations total, one right after the other and he did awesome! He didn't cry at all. Mostly he just wiggled a whole lot, which made for some interesting moments, but overall he was really well-behaved and happy to be there.

Of the 4 students that examined Dutch only 1 was a boy. The girls outnumber the boys by a lot in Chris' class. They were all really nice and did a good job. They all thought Dutch was super-cute and really well-behaved. All of the girls lingered as long as they could so they could play with him. For some it was there first time being around a baby! I guess if you've never been around one Dutch is a good place to start. Lucky them!

His paycheck for the day will go toward Dutch-related things like diapers and formula and maybe a bouncy seat.

Good job. Children need to understand early on that work is good. You can't start to early.

Awesome! Way to go Dutch! I've been trying to get my boys to go out and start making some dough, but they have just been lazy bums...
