We've had a fun full week. As we anticipate our trip to the shore, we are trying to fit in some fun things here at home. Monday we went to the library for a small play called "Once Upon a Time." There were 2 actors doing Cinderella and Jack and the Beanstalk. It was really amusing as they changed wardrobes - with the man playing the stepsisters, etc. Bridget quite enjoyed it. Then on Tuesday (after our haircuts) we went to see The Big Bang Boom Band (again at the library). They were great! A rock-n-roll band for kids. Bridget had a blast jumping and dancing around. Dillon was a bit apprehensive at first, but quickly warmed up and was jumping around too. He even tried to go up on stage and join the band. This morning Bridget woke up with muscle pains in her legs - maybe we don't get enough exercise!
Both kids had dentist appts this morning. It was Dillon's first checkup, and as expected the Dentist would like to see the pacifier outta here. Me too - so we're going to work on that. This was Bridget's 3rd checkup. I was sad to find out that she has 3 (possibly 4) cavities. I'm distraught over this - what are we doing wrong?! She brushes and then we brush her teeth. Ok, we need to floss more regularly, but her juice is always watered down, she doesn't eat that many sweets, and she has a healthy diet. I'm wondering if it's the vitamins she takes b/c she likes to suck on them. No more sucking on vitamins in this house! Since we'll be going away for an extended time, we are going tomorrow for Bridget to have at least 1 of them filled. They are in the molars - 3 between teeth and one on the surface. So, they need to be filled since she'll have those teeth longest. They use nitrous oxide - hopefully Bridget will do alright with that. If Bridget is doing alright and they have time they'll do more than one -otherwise we'll wait until we get back to do the rest. The dentist said we have caught them early. Bridget doesn't really know what's coming tomorrow - but I'm already feeling stressed about it. I'll let you know how it goes.

Maybe we ate lunch too late? He fell asleep, so I tipped back the high chair and there he stayed for an hour. :)Both kids had dentist appts this morning.
