Well, it's the weekend wrap up, plus last Thursday and Friday! We've been so busy the last few days! Both of the girls were scheduled to have dentist appointments for this coming Wednesday, but because it's my day to work I called to reschedule, and they were able to get us in Thursday. It was perfect since it was my day off! I ended up keeping Megan home with me. We dropped Gretchen off at school and then came back home so I could get dressed, then we went back to pick up Gretchen.
Megan was so proud of herself because she picked out her clothes Thursday morning. DJ got her up out of her room, and she was standing at her closet saying "I want to wear this dress and this coat." So, that's what she got to wear.
Addy Pearl rolled over twice from her belly to her back during her Thursday morning naps. She honestly has been rolling over for a while, but i've been in denial. It's going to be sad that I don't have the actual date written down, but she's probably been rolling over in her crib for the past month.
Anyway, I got Gretchen picked up from school and then we went to the dentist. I take them to a pediatric dentist and they have a huge play structure in the waiting room and the girls had the best time playing. I was really terrified how Megan would do at the dentist. This was her third appointment, and her last two I was literally holding her down. It was not good.
Thankfully this time went much better! They took Gretchen to a room, and then Megan and I went to a different room. Megan picked out a Tiana toothbrush and then the hygienist brushed her teeth. I tried to prepare Megan all morning by telling her that we were going to get her teeth brushed.
Gretchen was a pro. This was her after her cleaning.
Megan was waiting on Gretchen to get finished.
Once both girls had their teeth cleaned, the dentist saw them and happily reported that there were no cavities!
Thursday night is suppose to be DJ's early night to get home from the football office. I thought it would be fun for us to carve our pumpkins and I knew that if we didn't do it on Thursday, that we wouldn't have another chance.
He didn't make it home until 6:30 but we were determined to get the pumpkins carved.
The girls had so much fun playing in the 'guts'. They were even eating it!
I bought little pieces that you can stick in the pumpkins to make silly faces, and that kept the girls busy while DJ carved.
I didn't get a picture of our completed pumpkins, but I will! As soon as the girls were finished we dunked them in the tub and put them all to bed! It was a late night, but totally worth it!
DJ flew to New Orleans on Friday, and I worked in the afternoon. I had been looking forward to Friday night all last week because I had some fun activities planned for the girls.
I made mummy dogs, and planned on making monster pudding, but it wasn't ready in time for dinner. So I served "eyeballs, bugs, and ghost cheese". Yeah, I'm that creative.
One of our neighbor's came over to play before dinner, so I asked her to join us. The girls were happy to have a friend!
The pudding I made finally set so I let the girls make "monster pudding" before bed.
We just stirred in a few drops of a food coloring and added sprinkles.
Then, I let them watch a Sofia the First show before bed.
Addy hung out in the swing.
Megan has learned how to open her door, which meant for an early morning on Saturday. She was up by 6:30 and Gretchen woke up around 7. Thankfully, the girls played well together in Megan's room and I was able to rest a bit longer.
Once I got up and fixed the girls breakfast, Megan told me that she wanted to sit with Gretchen. I just thought it was so sweet.
That afternoon, I found the girls coloring pictures together.
After dinner, we decided to paint our pumpkins that we didn't get to paint on Friday night.
I gave each of the girls two small pumpkins to paint and I painted two larger ones.
After pumpkin painting the girls got a bath and went to bed.
DJ came home a little after 11 on Saturday and we both tried to sleep in on Sunday! I somehow convinced him to get up with the big girls and Addy and I slept until 9, and then once I got up, DJ went back to bed!
Meggie was so sweet all day and wanted to hold Addy or have Addy sit with her
I spent most of my day appliquéing shirts while the big girls played and Adalyn napped. The girls had tons of fun making a fort out of barstools, chairs, and blankets in the living room! It kind of makes my type A personality go crazy, but i'm slowly trying to learn to let the mess go, and thankfully Gretchen has been much better about helping clean up in the evenings before bed.
Now, if I could only get her to clean her room!
