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!

Reganism: on adoption

IMG_2524

Regan asked for seconds of pizza then folded his arms.

Regan prayed we could adopt a baby for the first time by himself. "Bless we could adopt a baby soon I can be a big brudder."

He also prayed that Daddy would have a good day at work, Kaylee would have a good day at school, and he would have fun at Aunt Shannon's house.

He did not bless the food though. He now prays that we can adopt a baby soon in all his prayers. I asked him why he wants to adopt a baby, and he said, "Babies are so cute. I can be a big budder, have so much fun."

So there you go. Regan is ready to be a big brother.
