Tinkerbell

Caitlin got a Tinkerbell costume for her birthday (thanks Pat and Colleen). She absolutely LOVES it and wears it everyday!!! She is upset, though, that it doesn't magically make her fly. :)

Plug for my friend

Lila and I have been friends for several years now and I just love her. She's been doing my hair a while now too and just started her own shop. If any of you are looking for someone fun and great at hair styling, please give her a call. You will have a blast and LOVE what she does. Here is her information.



Also, Lila and her husband Michael have been trying to adopt. If you know someone who is pregnant and considering adoption, please give them Mike and Lila's information. They can confidentially check them out at http://www.providentliving.org/ses/birthmother/viewsingleprofile/0,12272,2133-1-7081-1-1,00.html. They will be great parents some day!!

First Dentist Visit

On Friday I took Caitlin to the dentist for the first time. I found a pediatric dentist that was in network with out insurance. I was hoping the pediatric dentist would make it easier for Caitlin to not be scared. Boy am I glad I did. They were so great with her. I sat off to the side, so she couldn't see me, and the dental hygienist that cleaned her teeth just talked her ear off. She was GREAT with kids. It made Caitlin so at ease. She explained everything she was going to do before she did it and made it sound fun or magical. Caitlin loved it and did great. I honestly thought she would be scared at times, but she loved it. She even sat still for x-rays. She did great and got to pick a toy from their treasure chest and the dental hygienist made her a balloon animal. Caitlin of course picked an elephant.

Four Year Olds are Crazy!!

Take Two

I finally got her to sit still for some normal pictures!

Party in the Park

And for future reference, dishwashing liquid takes out chocolate stains!
