A strangely spooky thing.....

Well now this probably won't be the strangest thing you'll see on here...but it'll probably be pretty close.

Mikayla and I had our dental appointments yesterday and this is just so fascinating to me. 

WARNING:  if you get creeped out by x-rays....don't look any further...

Here is Mikayla's panoramic dental x-ray...and it totally fascinates me.  (Yes I studied it while her teeth were getting cleaned).  I think it's neat to see all - like ALL of her teeth...baby teeth and adult teeth alike all at the same time. Now there's something you don't see every day...a mouth with 48 teeth in it. You can see both rows of teeth in there!  It's weird to see how big her front teeth will be - without seeing them... weird....huh :) 

So what do I know for sure....

I know her 12 year molars are almost 1/2 way developed (makes sense, right, being that she's 6....and they're 1/2 way grown)

I also know...that for right now... there are no wisdom teeth, sometimes by now the tooth buds would show, but hers aren't showing, genetics intrigue me because I don't have any wisdom teeth, neither does my dad (but both my mom and sister did), but Michael has his and so does his mom.  So it will be just another genetic interesting fact :)

I also know that panoramic x-rays are really weird!!  and well...I guess I am too!!  LOL

Happy Valentine's Day!!

 HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!!

Well I will have to say, I went a teeny bit crazy with Valentine's this year but really, I couldn't help it!!  So after she went to sleep, I did a little decorating in her room with a banner and some balloons :)

It took three trips to get them all up there! 

What is Valentine's without a mini tea set, right?  Now this was actually my mom's mini tea set and I love that we have one for all seasons!!  :)

 Heart hair do, :)  this is from Saturday (my practice run)

Here is the do for today :) 

here is the table set up :)  I wanted her to have a little bear to take to school and yet have some presents to look forward to for tonight.

So I had that all set up before she woke up, then this morning, she came into our room and told me in a whisper..."Mommy, there are balloons in my room"...... I said "I know, Happy Valentines Day!!"  She got soooo excited then she ran back upstairs to get some and bring them down and she was walking around holding them on her head saying "I have antlers, I have antlers"  (LOL heck whatever makes them happy right)!

When she saw the table.... she screamed with happiness and said "You are the best mom ever!!".... awwwww this little girl melts my heart!

Good Morning! 

Antlers...LOL



Happy Valentine's Day!!!!

Lets Bowl!!

We were invited to one of Mikayla's best friends birthday party.  Its so fun because they have been friends for 3 years (1/2 their lives) they went to Primrose together and now to St. E's together.  It's soooo cool, I know I still have my friends from way back when, so it's neat to see it all start for Mikayla.

So we went to the bowling alley...and let me tell you, these kids were WIRED up...seriously I have never seen any of them act as crazy as they were there, all of the moms were looking at each other like...wow... so I decided that they were acting that way together because they were doing everything they can't do at school. LOL  I took all of these pictures with Mikayla's Christmas camera...she loves that I use it too (I didn't feel like carrying the big one around plus I need to get the lens fixed)

Mikayla was on the all boys team.... yikes!!!  And she didn't mind...even more yikes!!

We all really had a great time!!!  I love it!!! 

Little Flower Girls!

We had our Little Flower Girls Club meeting on Friday.  It really is fun and Mikayla has said she wants to do it again next year.  So we arrived, it was so much less frantic than usual YAY for small favors.

She was working hard on her page here.  :)  It thrills me to no end that she enjoys being crafty and making things.  She has her own scrapbook too...actually she has two now, one she makes for anything and one for Little Flower Girls. 

AHHHH the moment has come!!!  She earned some patches, I will get them stitched on her sash and you'll see them!!  She was so excited!!! I was too....we got our patches!!  YAY!!  so as each girl gets called up, everyone in the room claps and says "God loves you".  It  is just so neat!!

She was so happy!!!
