Last week we took Ally to the dentist for the first time. . . We held off last year since she’s always been super sensitive with anything in her mouth, strong tastes etc. We started off nice and easy and decided to just have the dentist take a quick peek in her mouth and do a super quick brush with just the teeniest bit of floride. . all in all he was done in a little over a minute. She wanted to sit on Nicholas’ lap since she saw him get his teeth cleaned. She was cool with it until the chair laid back and the dentist approached. In the following progression of pictures, you can clearly see what her feelings were regarding the whole ordeal. BUT. .she survived and got a balloon dog and a tooth shaped ring that left her smiling by the time we left the room 🙂

We’re good. .sittin’ with my big brother. . .

Oh crap!. . .He’s not coming for me is he???

Escape! Escape!

Ally likes to ‘play’ hopscotch now. . though her version doesn’t actually involve any hopping or jumping- Tonight’s version involved running up and down the numbers and telling Bryan and I when to “GO”. There are times when she tries to ‘hopscotch’ and she makes one narrow step, then a wide one. . .then a narrow step. .Too funny! She drew with her sidewalk chalk some tonight and wasn’t happy about the chalk dust on her hand. She had the same problem last year but got past it after playing with it a few times 🙂

Today’s warm weather inspired me to go through some of Ally’s clothes that I have put away for this coming summer. She had a ball trying on some cute summer dresses and skirts. She insisted on getting her big sunglasses and wore them around the house saying “Ready for Beach!” over and over again. I’m not sure where she got this as she’s never been to a beach! LOL! I think we are ALL ready for the beach. . or at least consistently warm weather 🙂 I caught this picture of her with her sunglasses on the top of her head wearing a very nice summer ensemble. The skirt is size 12-18 months. . yes, she’ll be 3 in a few months. LOL!
