God bless her little heart, she has the shortest little legs in the world. I truly believe she is going to have my exact body type; short legs, long torso, big hips. She did really well throughout her appointment except when it came to the doctor's sticking things in her ear and mouth. Truthfully though who can blame her, I would be upset too if some stranger started sticking things in my ears and mouth out of nowhere. Then of course at the end came the dreaded shots. Poor thing had to get her TB test, which is a shot in the arm, and then she had to get another 3 shots in her legs. I will admit that she was a trooper, and even though she screamed out as it was happening she calmed down very quickly as soon as it was done. The rest of the day was the norm, except for some reason that night she had trouble sleeping and woke up multiple times in the night which we have not had to deal with for sometime now so it was pretty frustrating. I am sure she was just sore from the shots and was also maybe having nightmares from them as well. All in all I am always thankful that my babies are healthy and happy. It truly is all that really matters.
Today was quite an exciting day as well. I had to be at the dentist bright and early to get some work done, and as all of you know I am terrified of going to the dentist. I would go get a pap test everyday of the year rather than go to the dentist. I think my fears stem from the fact that I have ALWAYS had issues with my teeth, so I never really get the chance to go for just a cleaning, it is always a cleaning and let's do a root canal, or let's do 3 or 4 fillings. Which was the case today, I had to get 3 fillings. Now I will say that my fear of pain associated with dental work has gone away, and I will attribute that to 1) having had an abscess tooth before which is out of this world unbearable, and 2) having been through contractions with my children. The pain of those two things make me feel like anything less than that is a piece of cake. Anyways all went well with my dental work and the only real pain I had was the stupid numbing shots which left my mouth feeling like it was sagging to the floor for a good couple hours or so. I then returned home and gave Lainey a nap and got Madden ready for school. As we got to Madden's school, his teacher was at the drop off area and got Madden out of the car. As soon as she opens the door she says," There's my favorite guy." To which I replied, "We won't tell anyone," and then she said, " Oh I think they all already know, I can't hide it very well." It makes me SOOOOOO happy that my child is in such loving and caring hands. The fact that she goes out of her way to tell me how sweet he is, and how he melts her heart makes me so proud of my sweet little boy. Most mom's I am sure would dread dropping their kids off at school, but I know that he is in good hands and is learning far more then he could ever learn from good old mom. The last part of our day was a photo shoot for Miss Lainey bug. Jackie who does my pictures had asked if she could use Lainey to model off a bonnet she had just received. She thought with Lainey's big eyes and chubby cheeks she would look adorable. I of course was more than willing to drive her out to her house if it meant some more free photo's. The shoot went well but Lainey was not in the best of moods. I can't wait to get the pictures so I can put them up for all to see.
I am looking forward to dinner with my BFF tomorrow night. It is getting harder and harder to find time to get together so I very much cherish anytime that we possibly can. It's so important to keep those relationships in check because they need TLC just like any kind of relationship does. Once again thanks for chugging along with me and hope everyone has a lovely Thursday.
My kids like to be pushed around in old diaper boxes....(don't judge, Ha!)
