We might have had some cart races…
but thankfully managed to make it out of there without a clean up on aisle 9!
Maybe not the best helpers but definitely the cutest!
See you tomorrow!

Cleaning off the iPhone!
Lots of fun times! See you tomorrow!
PJs and Pancakes
The kids were invited to the cutest Pancakes and PJs Party to celebrate Anne and Vivian’s second birthday on Saturday! They all seemed quite happy to get to leave the house in their pjs…
The cute birthday girls (who are just friends even though they look like sisters!) with their big stack of pancakes!
The party was just as neat as it could be…
with cute things for the kids to do like make a Froot Loop necklace…
baby didn’t really make one…but she did find other people’s necklaces to eat! 🙂
Everyone enjoyed the pancakes and doughnut holes…
and they especially loved getting to try lots of sugary cereals they had never had before!
It was a fun group of kids…
(Samantha clearly thought it would be better to stand in front of everyone and pick her nose for the picture rather than sit with the other kids.)
and a good time was had by all!
Happy birthday Anne and Vivie!
Morning walk
I can already tell one of my favorite parts of the day will be walking Maxwell to school in the morning – well, until he tells me he’s old enough to do it himself and only lets me take him to the corner! 🙂 But, for now, he lets us walk him all the way in and I love it.
On Monday Robert got to do the honors…
On Tuesday Robert was out of town so Spencer, Samantha, and I all got to walk him over together…
On Wednesday Robert was back but Spence still wanted to go with us…
He didn’t stay because he’s obviously “too cool for school”! ha!
And, no, it’s not cool enough for pants here but they don’t seem to care!
Baby was waiting for us when we came back…
and likes to wave to all the people dropping off their kids!
I had to miss the morning drop off on Thursday because I was in Nashville! woohoo! I drove over for the night to see the Dixie Chicks with Lyndsay…
A great concert and a super fun quick trip. Happy to be back home for the morning school walk today though! Happy Friday!
Mouth Trauma Drama again
As a kid I seemed to get hit in the mouth a lot. I had several incidents with teeth damage – starting with a fall on the concrete driveway when I was around 4 (?) that resulted in a gray baby tooth. That damaged baby tooth lead to an adult tooth that is discolored to this day. One of my biggest fears has been that my kids will get a gray “dead” baby tooth. It almost happened 2 years ago, with Spencer’s fall that totally tore up his mouth and hurt his teeth. It was terrible but thankfully, THANKFULLY he has no lasting damage. Well, literally 2 years TO THE DAY of that incident, Samantha fell too. What are the odds? August 14th is clearly not a good day in my book!
On Sunday night I got Samantha out of the bath and wrapped her up in her hooded towel. She took two steps, slid on the wet floor and, because her arms were wrapped up in the towel, caught herself on the tile floor with her front teeth. I knew immediately that it was bad. Her teeth were bleeding and she was screaming and it was my worst fear coming true. Ugh. She recovered pretty quickly and we got her to sleep. I took her to the dentist the next day. She had to get up early from her nap to go so BaaBaa and her paci got to go with us…
A little unsure about this whole dentist thing!
She didn’t want anything to do with getting an x-ray but actually happily let Dr. Thomas look at her teeth. He said she hit really, really hard. She hit so hard the tissue between her teeth tore. 🙁 Like with Spencer, he gave her a round of antibiotics and now we just wait and see. If they are going to turn gray it will happen in the next 2 weeks or so. Dr. Thomas gave it a 50/50 chance. I am heartbroken. Please, please don’t let my sweet baby’s teeth turn gray!! Prayers for healthy, white teeth are very appreciated right now!
