Julianne goes to the dentist

Julianne had her first dentist appointment this week - the dentist said she had perfect teeth! She did so well - she let the hygienist clean, floss and give her fluoride. In the beginning of the appointment the hygienist told her we she was going to make her teeth clean and sparkly - so what Jules do... When she was done she asked for a mirror and said - "they're not sparkly..." :-) Kids take things so literally!!

Getting her teeth cleaned

Open wide!

Look at those "sparkly" teeth!

One month down...

On Sunday, Will turned one month old!!! Okay - I just have to say - I'm GLAD that month is over. I'm not one of those people to sugar-coat things so I'll just say it like it is - It is harddd taking care of a newborn! Will isn't the most content baby and has the most heart-wrenching scream, so there have been many hard days this first month. However I am happy to report that the last few days have been better - I hope this continues! Thank goodness for my mom, Nick's mom and my sisters who have helped me and made sure I am keeping my sanity.

By looking at the pictures, you can see that Will is a good eater!!! He isn't the best sleeper though. He will usually give me 4-5 hours first at night, but then is up every 2 hours or so and has trouble getting back to sleep around 4 or 5 am. That makes for some short nights and long days for mommy!!! His daytime napping can vary; one day he'll sleep a lot and the next day he'll only take short cat naps which makes him quite cranky!

1st Day of Preschool

We officially have a preschooler in our house now! Julianne has one week of preschool under her belt and she loves it! I was very proud of her - she wasn't scared and has faced all the new things like a really big girl! I suppose mommy was more nervous that she was for this new adventure...
