The joy of being a dental student wife......


So I went down to the dental school again today. Cam said I have 11 cavities that need to be replaced/filled and 4-yes you read that right 4 crowns-gold ones!!! By the time this year is over I am going to know the dental school as well as a dental student. The thing I hate the most about going to the dentist is-why do I bother to do my hair? You always walk out with bed-head! The back of your hair is always smashed and it seems your neck is cranked one way or the other so you always have a flat side of hair too. Cam does a great job and I guess if it's the only way we can be on a date without kids I will take it. Oh, I am also his guinea pig for his dental camera!


p.s. at least I get a cool t-shirt with the CASE logo on it!!

Audrey, I feel your pain. :) Andy keeps reminding me that I need to come in for a check up, and he tells me that he knows I have at least one cavity because he can apparently see it. ahh....but somehow, my schedule keeps alluding me. :) But if you need someone to be watching your kiddos while you go in for your "dates" with Cam and the camera...call me!!!

At least you don't have irreversible pulpitis. But if you ever do get it, I know a good student doctor that can diagnose it for you.

Claire's Birthday

Claire's Birthday
Claire's B-day was May 27th but it was freezing cold. We did it in a park but everyone was bundled b/c the wind was blowing so much. Needless to say it was a short party, and the ice cream didn't melt.

Princess Claire

Mommy Claire

Mommy Claire
Claire has a great imagination. She will make anything into play stuff. shel loves to be the mom. In this pic. she pulled up her stroller and was reading her baby a book. The different color rings on the stroller are boy and girl rings. The ones on the left are girls and the ones on the left are boys. Claire gets really into her books. Cam said yesterday sometimes he can't tell if she is just reading/pretending or if she is really crying! She is her own person for sure.

After the Egg Hunt

After the Egg Hunt
Enjoying the spoils after the Easter egg hunt. Brig will shake and egg and if there is something in it he will give it to us to open. He's a smart cookie with a sweet tooth!

Variations on Winter

Variations on Winter
We got a suit for Claire at Old Navy and as all girls are, she couldn't wait to get it on. Mind you it's like 25 outside. To make it even better, Grant was headed ouside to play in the mounds of snow we got, I had to get a pic of them together!

Claire's mishap

Claire's mishap
Let's explain why Claire looks so freaky!! O.K. so we were having a fun family night together a few Sundays ago. We were tossing the kids up in the blanket and instead of Claire landing back in the blanket she landed on her head on the floor. We took her to the ER and a few hours later found out she had a hair-line fracture on her skull right above her eye and this is what she looked like the next day. We made sure to tell Grant not to say anything to her about her eye, as to not make her too upset. He said o.k. so a little while later he thought I was out of earshot and he said your eye is so gross, I can't stand to look at it anymore. Then he walked away!! She is our cute Claire now and has healed great!!!.

One of the things I will really miss about Cleveland and our great house is the Mangolia tree outside one of our front room windows. It is a huge beautiful tree with delicate blossoms that only last a short time. I love it!

Going Camping

Going Camping
Claire and her friend Halle today decided they were going to go "camping" like their brothers Grant and Tyler. I wonder who will last in the wilderness the longest. Grant and Tyler with a backpack full of food, bandaids, matches ect. or Claire and Halle with a backpack full of fluffy shoes and stuffed animals!

Food Man

Food Man
Brig could eat all day if we let him. He really loves food, maybe we need to stop feeding him so his belly won't be so big so he can walk!! He knows when the fridge is open and makes a crawl for it as fast as he can. He will reach for our candy cupboard too. The little stinker!

Dentists in training

Dentists in training
This past wash day the kids and I were sorting out all the dirty clothes in Brig's room (man were there a lot of them) Anyway, I had gone downstaris to put a load of wash in and when I started to come back up I could hear Grant and Claire laughing. I stood on the steps to listen for a minute but couldn't figure out what they were doing. I went up and they were dressed up in Cam's scrubs! They were having a ball being dental students together so I had to get a pic!
