Caitlyn went to the dentist Monday. I was SO proud of how well she did! She watched Jacob and the entire time kept saying my turn my turn! Got right up in the chair and patiently had her teeth cleaned and let the dentist do his evaluation. They have a television screen on the ceiling and she watched Dora most of the time. On the way to the dentist she thought we were going to a dance class. I suppose dentist and dancing sounded the same to her so I was worried she was going to be disappointed, but she enjoyed her visit the receptionist even said we can dance if you want too.:):)... Unfortunately she has to go back Monday for 2 cavities, but hopefully we have gone early enough that they are not too time consuming and painful to fill. The dentist seemed confident that she would do fine.

Yesterday we had a jammie day and just stayed in pj's all day. Today I think we are up and out of here though. Keeping Caityn indoors makes so much work. She poured a huge tub of oatmeal out that her elder brother left out and ran to me to say "I made a mess again mommy!" with a huge grin on her face. That is just one of several yesterday. She then handed me what was left in the tub and told me I needed to put it up high so she could not get it. Anyway, I think we will take a trip to the book store. Soon I will have to start taking them to the library instead, I think. Now that they can read pretty well they are going through 3 or 4 books a day. At Barnes and Nobles home school families get a 20 percent discount so that is nice.

Also I wanted to mention that if anyone would like a custom blog template, my blog friend Verna is doing them to raise money for her orphanage donation for her darling son Noah. Look at those cheeks, is he a cutie or what? She generously gave around $2000 dollars she has earned to another family recently and now the next couple of months will go towards Noah's. She can do Christmas Cards too! She is very talented and has answered questions for me a couple of times as I try to design my own templates.
