Sunday--we visited with lots of family--well not lots but lots for us to see in 1 day. A visit with my mom that was supposed to be a talk about this little bloggy of mine & it's future turned into a file transfer of blogging lessons and us talking about her work and interests...she really does get side tracked...so if you were wondering where I get it from there's your answer! We both have habits of working on several projects at once. Difference is she is better at finishing them that I am. I'm working on it.
We had a great visit though and it makes me feel even more LUCKY to know that great weather and outside gatherings are around the corner so we no longer need to hide in our houses and not see our families & friends.
Then we headed to lunch to see my o so fab MIL and meet her new beau. Not shabby if I do say! wink wink He seems like a very nice person and we look forward to seeing more of them in the future. Looks like some baseball games with all of us is in the future! Who doesn't love a good baseball game!!
Monday, well it was Monday. Late to work and it all just went down hill from there. But when driving home glad that the day was over I thought back about all the things that irritated me and thought how silly was I? And then my Ah ha moment, another relative was coming to visit me. Well Aunt Flow you will not get the best of me this month. Take that!!! Ever since I had that thought she's been fighting back with great back pains. Little witch!
Tuesday, I really remember nothing from the workday at all!! What I do remember is this: I have the most awesomest teenager, PG, (wait, did I just say that???) She is pretty awesome, but don't get me wrong she has her Aunt Flow weeks too, this week just happens to not be it!!! YEAH!!!! We had the YE Cheer banquet last night. Not sure why they called it a banquet when it consisted of hot Hawaiian Punch and cupcakes but who am I to judge! Oh yes we paid all those dues, just kidding, It was fine. It was very emotional for a lot of the girls, mine included. PG received her VARSITY LETTER, the BEST FLIER AWARD and I believe BEST NEWCOMER award(I honestly can't remember what they called it, and I can't even find the dang thing now!) Oh so proud of her. She has accomplished a lot this year in cheer @ school & competitively. All while keeping her grades up with minimal threats. We watched one of the seniors sign her letter of intent to go to MNU. That, I thought, was really cool!!
Wednesday. Today was PB first trip to the dentist. The past few days we've talked about showing his big, sharp teeth to the dentist and he was ready to go. That is until we hit the entrance door. I could tell as we sat in the waiting room this wasn't going to go well. The longer we waited the closer he go to me. Hugging my arm like I was going to leave him there and never return.
Alex, your turn.Uh oh here we go. I so wish there could of been 2 of me, so someone could of been taking photos. I bet they have surveillance footage. It would be worth paying for a copy of that. As they tried to make him comfortable and get him in the chair he was having no part of it. He actually stood in the hall, pulled his jacket up over his mouth and shook his head no. After several unsuccessful attempts to get him in the chair. The assistant tells me
You made an appointment for a cleaning so we're getting a cleaning. You'll need to grab him and sit with him.Guess they can only be nice for so long. (she really wasn't mean) She proceeds to tell me where and how to sit and that we will lay his head in the lap of the dentist.
So starts the big tantrum
NO STOP I DON'T WANNAWe got sat down and situated and I think his dentist was hiding behind a curtain somewhere. In she came, flossed, polished, fluoride brushed--DONE. BOOM all in about 10 minutes. But don't get me wrong he whined the WHOLE time!! But there were no actual tears so I know he was fine.
Off to the prize drawer, just try and stop him. I bet that drawer felt violated as fast as he snatched a toy out of there. He didn't even know what he grabbed, he just knew he needed something after all that agony.
Now here's the part I'm a little worried about--he gets to pick a new toothbrush & a t-shirt.................we are now the proud owners of a pink toothbrush and a purple t-shirt.......WTH???? Safe to say his photo won't be going on the "t-shirt photo wall" in their office, that is unless I can dye it, let's say good shade of BLUE maybe.
But NO SUGAR BUGS (that's cavities for you peeps that don't or haven't had little ones for a while) Now if he can get 10 punches on his card-1 for each visit with No sugar bugs-they will give him $50. Seems like a deal right. Do you know that is 5 years with no cavities????? We won't count on seeing that $$.
Have great rest of your week! I'm still busy this week so I hope to catch up with the both of you again this weekend! :)
There are no photos in this post. But rest assured I've been taking some. Frankly I'm just to tired to mess with right now and the 2 of you have probably seen a few on FB already!
