Some Mommy Time

Today was a slightly crazy day. Nicholas had his first day back at preschool and was totally ready to go by 8am! Even though he knows what time school starts, he wanted to leave early "just in case". After dropping Nicholas & his present for his teacher's birthday off at school, Matthew & I headed to the eye doctor for my check-up. He was pretty agreeable in his stroller for the first 40 or so minutes, then just wanted to be held! After the appointment, we spent some quality time playing together before heading back to preschool for Nicholas' birthday treats! Our friend Tatiana made the cutest dinosaur cookies for Nicholas' party! The kids enjoyed them so much - some ate the cookies, some played like they were toys!
Then for the Mommy time. Some moms shop during their free time, some moms go to the spa. Not me! I spent an afternoon at the DENTIST!!!! I'm sure you are all so jealous! Now, I don't normally mind the dentist - I view it as a necessary evil. I WANT clean, healthy teeth, so this is how I get them! Today was another story. My visit today was to remove sealants placed on my teeth during childhood & also to remove several fillings from way-back-when that had a piece missing & replace them. So it was a LOT of drilling & holding my mouth open. Fun times, right? At the end, she told me to go home and immediately take 4 ibuprofen. Unfortunately, I can't take that. :( So I'm not feeling so great tonight! Luckily for me, my wonderful family will take great care of me!
