All of us in the car!
We got there a little early, so we read some books in the waiting area till it was our turn. It was nice of the hygienist to let us all come in the same room. Lola was the helper to keep the twinkies that wasn't in the dentist chair calm and entertained... good thing MBMell had books in her bag, just kidding.. the twinkies were over the top amazing at the dentist. B went first, was super excited to watch the tv on the ceiling and listened to the dentist. He looked at her teeth, brushed them, and then applied fluoride. She has all her teeth, and needs to work on eliminating the thumb sucking. She was such a good patient! T was next and waited patiently on Lola's lap for his turn, checking out what was happening with B. He had the same calm experience. So much so that the dentist commented "we never get to clean all the teeth of most kids"... good job! T is growing his last set of molars and the drool is evident. T loved the water that the dentist sprayed in his mouth, and commented on that after. The twinkies were so good they got a stuffed friends.
Proud twinkies!
Since the twinkies were so successful, the 2 appointments made were not needed for time (done way sooner that we anticipated), so MBMell asked if we could do haircuts now. Lola agreed this was better than going in the afternoon after nap like originally planned to try and get them done. The kids also did fantastic. We went to Bird Barbershop, walked right in and sat down. Lola went with T and MBMell had B. T was done in about 10 minutes, and even got the back of his neck shaved. She mentioned that most men don't sit that still for the shaving of the neck. B was a little antsy, but still was successful.
always thinking!
The crew made it home after a very successful morning. We watched some Mickey Mouse Club House while the Girls made lunch! Lola's speciality omelettes!
After a poopy diaper while trying to nap, the twinkies fell asleep, the ladies ate a bag of chips and cookies and just chatted on the couch! It was a great afternoon. 2 hour nap, we opened the packages from the door, B was very excited to give DD his new socks that arrived, but he was still at work. "I will hold on to them until he gets home". she placed them on the couch until he arrived. when he did get home, she ran to get them, and immediately made him try them on! so cute! We also had a fashion show (trying on "winter" clothes to see what fit, for the next season). The kids loved putting on each others clothes and wearing their Halloween costumes.
The socks!
We had a picnic!
making a fashion statement
We went for supper at The Yard house. The food and company was awesome. Lola orders the ahi every time!
After supper we got back to the "new House", got the mail, and headed for bedtime routine. We had a short chat with uncle Adam and then went to bed!
After the kids were sleeping we cleaned up, and just chatted. DD went to bed early. Lolas last full day made me "really Happy". We have been working on feelings while Lola has been here, and getting better at expression how we feel. T asked us in the car if we were happy. We all answered yes!
Lola is getting sad, as tomorrow is her last day. And hopefully doesn't get stuck in Minneapolis as she doesn't have a seat (has to get an assigned seat at the gate). A little anxious and a lot sad. But will be happy to see AA at the airport tomorrow when he finally picks her up instead of the other way around!
Till tomorrow, Lola.
