Dentist

At Kimberlen's last appointment they talked me into having Maycee seen the next time we were in, so here we are. Our fun visit to the Dentist.

Maycee thinks that the tooth brush is pretty cool. They let her pick it out by herself and she chose Dora. Kimberlen chose one of the Princess'.
Getting her teeth flossed. Listening to the show "Cars".
Eric and Maycee checking out all the cute things they have used to decorate the office. The black square on the celling is the t.v., which are above all the chairs. It makes it fun.
Kimberlen just waiting. I wanted to show off the office. It is done up like the "Little Rascals" movie. In the waiting area they actually have a club house with long shag green carpet and a fenced in area and the whole nine yards. It is too cute.
Not a good idea to take a 16 month old to the dentist. She did not want them to brush her teeth and that didn't stop the dentist. He brushed until he got the fluoride on all her teeth.

Poor girl, she will never want to go back. Hopefully in time she forgets.

Retreat II

So I was lucky enough to get to go to Park City and stay at the Silver Barron Lodge in Deer Valley with the ladies from work. Last year we stayed one night and this year we decided we definitely needed two. The first night we just hung out, ate way too much and played domino's (thanks Jodi). The second day I made breakfast for all with help from Barb and went shopping, had some yummy Mexican food then went to a play called the Pageant. It was hilarious! It was men dressed as women competing in a beauty pageant, lets just say we laughed our butts off the whole time. On our way home on Sunday we stopped at the Park Silly Sunday, and did some more shopping. I was able to find a few tops for this growing belly I have. Thanks Terri for such a fun weekend again.

I do have to say thanks to Eric for putting up with me and taking care of the girls while I was gone. It really meant a lot.

This is the whole group.
Barb with her money, our work gave us each $100 to spend. Way cool.
Barb and Tahna throwing back the drinks!
Courtney and I being silly.
The intense game of domino's. Which I have to add lasted till 1:30 in the morning, We had to keep stopping and having breaks and then some of them got in the hot tub.

Girls Retreat

Wow, what a fun time we had! The tradition is to get a new pair of jammies when we get there and my mom usually does such a great job of picking them out. This year she added a bandanna to everyones outfit. That is why we all look a little gangsterish. We swam, relaxed, layed out, played numerous and hilarious games of Domino's, tried waxing and ate more than we should have. Not to mention the constant consumption of alcohol. We had perfect weather, about 91 and breezy, it was great.
Thanks girls for another memorable weekend!

P.S. Eric and the girls were just fine when I got back. The dishes and laundry were even done. He said that Maycee had a rough time at first without me, but she got used to me not there and was fine. I am glad everything went smoothly for him. Thanks honey!

Worried

Tonight I leave for Las Vegas for my families annual "Girls Trip" and Eric is already worried. He has only spent one night alone with both of them and this time it will be four. He is worried that he won't know what to make them for dinner, how to do baths the right way and that Kimberlen's hair will have to fend for itself. I keep reassuring him that he is going to do a fine job and if all else fails his parents only live about 15 minutes away. That is were he spent most of the night last time he had them. I have done all the laundry, the dishes, the house is mostly clean, the fridge is full and so is the gas tank. I think that should cover it, don't you? Well I will report on how they did when I get back. Wish him good luck and I can't wait to get some well deserved R&R by the pool!

Utah State Fair

So we took our turn and journeyed out to the Fair. It took me a while to figure out how to get my video moved from one place to another but anyway... We had a nice time. It must be a lot more fun when your a kid at the fair. I remember going with my parents and just having a great time. I think the girls had fun and they better have cause almost a hundred dollars later and nothing but these photos to show for it, it turned out to be an expensive four hours.

I can potty too

And then there were THREE

Today Eric and I went to the Doctors Office to see the newest addition to our family. Yes, I am pregnant again and we are having a BABY! Although they are hard to see the baby is growing well and looks like everything is as it should be.
Our due date looks like the end of March and a big congratulations to Aunt Desiree', the date is March 30, her birthday! I'd like to say that there might be a chance the baby will be born that day but with my history it is very unlikely. This baby will probably come early like the other two have. And for all of you that are doing the math right now, yes Maycee will be just shy of her two year birthday by two months. Anyway we are excited and hope that all goes well.

Where is the Tooth?

As I was walking down the sidewalk to pick Kimberlen up from school today she started running the moment she saw me and Maycee. I thought she was just excited to see us until she got a little closer. That was when I realized that her tooth that had been loose was missing. She was so excited to tell me about it and when I asked her if she kept it she said it was lost. Apparently the tooth fell out during first recess and somehow managed to find its way into the rocks. They have these little rocks about the size of a pencil eraser instead of sand and that's about the size of the tooth. She said that she wanted to write a letter to the tooth fairy and let her know what happened. We'll see how that goes.

Back to School

She said she couldn't smile because of the sun in her eyes, so this is the best we could do for a smile. Let alone it was taking up too much time and we could be on our way to school. Geez Mom!
Today Kimberlen went to First Grade! She was so excited to get to go to school all day long. It started last night with her being worried that she was not going to get 12 hours of sleep if she had to get up at 7 and it was 8 when she went to bed. Of course it all worked out just fine. She was quite the chatter box while we were trying to get her ready, I think it was the anticipation. I finally had to tell her that if she didn't stop talking and asking so many questions she would never be able to finish her cereal and would be late for school. That shut her right up. While we were doing hair and the rest of the morning she kept singing "Today is my first day of first grade" it was too cute.

This is her teacher in the background talking to one another mom. And Kimberlen doing her usual thing and watching other people instead of paying attention to the task at hand.
