A Visit with our Dentist

I wish that I had my camera with me when we went to do this. What darling pictures they would have been! Oh well. I'll remember next time. Anyway, this last weekend Adam took me and Clara to his dad's office to clean my teeth. It was definitely time. We set Clara up happily in the waiting room with a movie and some snacks while we went in a hygiene room for the cleaning. Clara was so cute. . . every so often I would feel her next to my head checking in with us. She said "Mommy, is Daddy fixing your teeth so their good as new?" And then when we were all done she came in all ready to jump up in the seat for "her turn". Luckily Adam said her teeth look really good, so he took a tooth brush and cleaned them for her. She is very aware of the fact that her Daddy is a dentist and he fixes teeth all day. On occasion she calls him Dr. Dad.

Clara is 3

Clara had her 3rd birthday this last week and it was the most fun so far! At 3 she understands the whole concept of birthdays and loved that the whole day was all about her. She got a special celebration at school
and then we went to a place called The Jungle (similar to Chuck e cheese). There her favorite part was the balls, although she enjoyed playing the games for tickets too. But, as we learned, a 3 year old plays ski ball different than you or I would!
