A busy day with visits to the dentist and Grammy's house

Today was an adventure! The girls did a wonderful job at the dentist today! Daddy took them since I had to go to work this morning. He was very impressed that neither kid was fidgety and tolerated everything! Dental hygiene is hugely important to me because as a kid I didn't take care of my teeth and to say it was painful is an understatement. I want it to be better for them so we take care of our teeth. As demonstrated by their behavior today, dental checkups are not scary and we don't dread them. Both Daddy and I are very proud of our kids!

After the dentist, they went to Grammy's house for lunch. My kids came home with bags of glass knick-knacks and many were broken periodically today. Grammy knew I would not appreciate it, but told me that she has a hard time saying, "No" to her granddaughters. Hmmm, I had already figured that out. Though Grammy and I don't always agree on what her granddaughters should have and not have, they greatly benefit from time with their Grammy. She is a character (Auntie She calls her a "trip".) and I love her.

Once the girls and I got home, we stayed in for the night. "Toy Story 2" was picked to watch yet again and we cleaned the house. Sofia made an adorable mess of herself cleaning the shower and Samantha cleaned (including dusting!) her room. She found an earring of mine that was recently lost and was so happy! Maybe this means Samantha will follow the steps of her often neat-freak mother.
