Johnny's first trip to the dentist

This week Johnny had his first dental check-up and Molly had her second.  Molly was not one bit hesitant about going and was eager to get right up in the exam chair.  I had to ease Johnny in by letting him sit on my lap at first but he warmed up and sat alone for a better part of the exam.  I love our dentist, their office is amazing.  Let me just say, it is nothing like my childhood dentist office! The exam room had 2 chairs so the kids could go at the same time (meaning half the time I have to be there) and it was so big Samuel was content walking around checking things out while the older ones were being looked at.  Hopefully this will start them on the right track so they won't have such a fear of the dentist like me! 

 The kids played dentist at home after their appointment!

Halloween 2013

The weekend before Halloween we enjoyed a trunk n treat at the church where Molly and Johnny attend preschool.  The kids had fun getting candy, going on a hay rack ride, and jumping in the bounce house!

 On Halloween night our little doctor, nurse, and injured patient ventured into the neighborhood in search of candy.  As you can see, they collected quite a load.  Molly has always loved trick-or-treating and this year was no different.  Johnny was a little more reserved (consistent with his personality) but it didn't take him long to figure out the routine and he happily went to the houses with Molly. Samuel was content eating a sucker in the wagon the whole evening.
