The Dentist

Jax had is first dentist appointment and he did great. Yes he was VERY nervous but it helped that his sister made it look so fun.

Here he is waiting to get pictures of his teeth taken

Now he is getting his teeth cleaned and watching a movie on the ceiling

Here he is listening to the movie and waiting for his turn to get his teeth cleaned

All done and would not even smile for me. That look is one of I can't believe you made me do this.

Here is Maddison she is a good sport and making it look fun so Jax would not be so nervous. The whole morning she is giving him the pep talk on how fun the moose dentist is and that he would love it.

All done and showing off her new toothbrush!!

The SHOTS

A little sore and very tired but still one tuff cookie!!

Hey at least she got a cool band aid!!

Well yesterday was the big day that Maddison has been dreading or maybe I have been dreading... we went to get her kindergarten shots yesterday and instead of going to the doctors office I went to the health department because I did not want Maddison to ask me every time we went to the doctor if she was going to get a shot. So we gathered a few friends and decided that if she went with some friends then she would not be so scared. Man and it worked she was so brave until she found out that she was the only one that was going to get them that day. Her friends were going to get theirs another day due to complications so into the tiny room we went and she sat on my lap and then looked over and the lovely nurse had left all the shots sitting there on the counter and that is when maddison FREAKED out. She started crying then as the nurse came closer with the shot she started to scream and as the shot went in she lost it. Then we had to do that FOUR times and each time she would say "I don't want that... no more shots.... and lots of screaming and kicking. Well needless to say I think Jax is traumatized and he does not want any shots for the rest of his life and I hope we did not scare off Maddisons little friend who stayed to give her moral support (Thank you for staying)!!! But over all it is OVER thank goodness and she is alive to tell about it!! (Which I am sure we will hear about it and everyone else!!)

Jax and his socks

Jax has a HUGE fetish with feet...yes a little weird i know... He also loves socks. He will put any socks he finds on his feet and he will steal socks right off your feet when you are not paying attention. Brynlee is his victim because she cant fight back yet but he always steals her sock and pulls them off her feet every chance he gets. Here are a few pics of him and his socks.

Blessing Day

We finally blessed Brynlee and it was good we did it when we did. We blessed her in the same dress that Maddison was blessed in but a month later and I was a little nervous because man Brynlee is growing fast. At first we were taking bets to see if the dress would even fit and I was to scared to try it on her so I waited until Sunday to try it on. Well.... It fit it was really snug but hey she only had to wear it for and hour. It was great to have the whole family around and Lacey and Tyler were in town so we were glad to have the whole crew. Thanks everyone for all your help and coming up it was so fun!

Three Months

Our little Brynlee who is not so little... turns three months today. It is hard to believe that it is three months already, boy time flies when you are having fun. She is so fun..... she does have a great set of lungs on her and she constantly reminds us all day long that she does. We went to the doctor the other day and this little chubby weighs 14lbs and is 24 inches long. She is in the 95% for her age. Yes 14 lbs. We do feed her chocolate milk on a daily basis because that is my stress food! She reminds me a lot of Maddison. She is a great eater as you can see, she cries a lot, she has acid reflux, she is beginning to hold her head up more and more each day, she LOVES to sleep on her tummy and lately has been sleeping 10 hours each night. Now that I wrote that it will stop because that is my luck! My Favorite is when she smiles it is an ear to ear grin and she just warms my heart! I am so glad that she is so healthy and part of our family we just love her so much!!

Sledding

For Daves 31st birthday this year we went sledding. It was a week bit chilly with a high of only ten degrees but cold is only relative when you have a great sledding hill only two minutes from your house!! It was a blast as you can see from the pictures we had a wonderful time.

Christmas EVE

We had a wonderful Christmas this is what we did on Christmas eve........ We played minute to win it where we had to bounce all the balls out of the tissue box that was strapped to our butt. We had our grandparents come over and had a nice dinner and program. We got in our warm christmas PJS and the best of all was the present my dad gave my mom on christmas eve. My mom lost her wedding ring while she was up here watching my kids when Brynlee was in the hospital and in order to get into the NICU you had to take your jewlry off and in the process she lost her wedding ring. So my dad came home from droping my grandma off on christmas eve and he was holding a box and he said 31 years ago i asked your mom to marry me on christmas eve and i want to ask her agian and he opened the box and there was a ring it. He had her wedding ring remade. It was beautiful!! That made the whole night it truly was the best present given!!
