Today's Happenings

I took the girls to the dentist this morning and it was a first for Megan. She was totally fine until they reclined the chair (so basically before they even started to do anything). She actually did really well. She let them clean her teeth and even let them do x-rays. After she was done I asked if she would come back again and she said yes. So the trip was a success. Julie even did fairly well considering she is terrified of any Dr's office. Good news: Both are cavity free.
Jill of course hammed it up and would give the greatest grins and giggles to the dentist while he was trying to talk to me. I think he had a little soft spot for her and gave her a toothbrush of her own. It has this gum massager on the end and she just loves it.

Today at school Julie did a little presentation for her class on things about her. What she likes, her talents, what she likes to do, her favorite book and etc...You make a poster and then the teacher hangs it in the classroom all week. They are called "Hero of the Week". Julie did a great job and then the classmates can asked her questions about herself. For Julie's talent she wrote loving my friends. Her teacher thought it was very fitting. She is my little social bug.

Here are other things she put on her poster. First and middle name (obvious from the picture), her favorite food is Mac & Cheese, favorite thing to do is play T-ball, her favorite book is "Are You My Mother?", favorite color: red (this changes day to day). I think she picked it because she could spell it. Her favorite animal is a cheetah. I heart Julie!

Okay so this is totally random but I thought I must share. Julie went to a birthday party 10 days ago. She got a balloon and accidentally let it go and now it is up in our vaulted ceiling. STILL THERE, after 10 days and doesn't even seem to be losing helium. What they crap did they put in that thing? I am going to keep you updated and let you know how long it takes for this balloon on steroids to make it back to earth. It is hard to tell from the picture but Julie tattooed the balloon with some great pictures and some names of her friends.
