First dentist visit

I forgot my camera. So crappy cell pics will have to do. Kaylee was a total rock star. She blew me away. They hygienist was shocked that this was Kaylee's first visit. She really did SO well. She was super cooperative, followed directions, and asked lots of great questions. She is already asking when she can go back.

We all done!"  And then I went from Mama, to pin down specialist. I worked up a good sweat. And we all learned that Regan has a very strong gag reflex. No actual puke, but lots of gagging. IMG_2758

I asked Regan when we got home and my arms were no longer his restraints what he thought of the dentist.  And then I took this photo. Sums up his feelings quite nicely.

 

Meanwhile both the children seem to have my teeth and gums. Everything is coming in nice and straight, good bite, healthy gums, no cavities. YEA! I count our first family visit to the dentist a success as I was expecting both kiddos to freak out.

Eye doc

 Kaylee had her very first visit with the eye doctor. She loved it. The Dr. and staff were awesome, and we all had fun. Regan and I were surprisingly entertained watching her exam. They were very thorough and she had her eyes dilated. 0917131602(1) 0917131711027She got to sport these rockin' shade for a couple hours. And she was a crack up that evening doing her homework. She was insistent that she needed to do it that night, and not the next day before school. She couldn't decided if she needed to have her face close to or far from the paper. And it was crazy sloppy. I sent a note to her teacher. Oh, and her eyes are perfect. So, yea!

Mothers and Sons

Regan and I have been enjoying one on one time together while Kaylee is at school. This is new for us, and we LOVE it. We've been going to the library, grocery shopping, browsing through stores, or we spend the entire time she is away just snuggling on the couch. Today we got to enjoy lunch with friends! Regan was bouncing off the walls the entire time.

This happened not once, but thrice! And then the waitress brought him more! Sally said she must not have kids. I agreed.  Sally I hope lunch was mildly entertaining. Sorry about the soda on your feet.

Regan was quite happy to see the baby. He is now asking for a baby brother or sister. It makes me all gooey inside. He really can't decide which because, "girls are cute, but boys are fun".  He dose enjoy his WWE time with his boy cousins…..

Little man was very excited about his pizza. He kept randomly yelling, ""I so excited!" He ate half there, and then the other half in the car.

I thought briefly about taking him home for a quick nap before we needed to pick up Kaylee, but he was SO SO SO hyper. So I called Shannon to see if I could swing by and drop some stuff off, but she was not home.

So we went window shopping, and fell  in love with this too small hoodie. It was the only one in the store. Regan ran around in it for a bit and I took pictures so I can make one for him. He is super into Batman right now. And by right now I mean the last several months. And by into I mean obsessed.
