Going to the Dentist

Macie had her very first dentist appointment the other day. She was ok with the idea of it, but when it really came down it, she is just like her mother and doesn't like the dentist!!!!! :)
I am really glad that Geoff was able to be there, because there is no way that I would have been able to handle both of the girls by myself with the way that Macie was acting. She REFUSED to get in the chair, lay down, or even open her mouth. Geoff ended up holding her on his lap, making her lay down, and she then she finally relaxed a little bit and opened up her mouth.Here she is crying and Geoff is holding her arms down saying that it is ok!
Here she is finally opening her mouth!
Then we really needed to get her in the actual chair, which Geoff accomplished by basically forcing her into the chair. Once in the chair, she was fine, I think that it was just the thought of it. In the end, she got a bag with a toothbrush and some stickers in it so she left a happy little girl!
Although she still says that she is scared of the dentist (which I never correct, and Geoff always does by saying that it is fun!)

And here is Addie sitting like a big girl in the chair with no fussing! What do you think, I think that she likes the dentist!

Family Visit

This past week my family was in town. We had a lot of fun!!! It was nice to have family come and visit us!!! We were super busy and did a lot of driving, but it was worth it and the girls actually did super well!!! Here are a few of the things that we did:
Celebrated my mom's birthday!
I made the cake! It was my 1st fondant cake and it was fun!!
Next we went to Cedar Point ( a huge amusement park!) It was a lot of fun and they had some fun rides for Macie and even Addie got to go on one! Here are some pics from the first ride she went on (and everyone else went on too!)

And this is my way cool brother Tyson! For those of you that know him..this is really funny and totally him!!!
Then we were off to Niagara Falls. We did the Maid of the Mist (a boat that takes you right to the falls) It was a beautiful day for this and although Addie cried nearly the whole time, it was fun.
