Dennie Kids: March 25, 2010

Highlights from today:  (click here for pictures)

• A very early morning for Reagan and Mom-in the car at 6:30 (more on that later)
• Anderson waking up and climbing in bed with Dad for a movie or two.  Graham joined them next while Campbell slept for a little while longer.  She had eaten at 5 and slept a little while this morning
• Reagan and Mom arrived at the dentist before 7.  The took Reagan's blood pressure and weighed her.  Next the dentist gave her the meds and then we waited and read magazines for the next hour.  Soon it was time-she wore the gas nose thing, didn't flinch when she had her shots and the dentist was finished within 15 minutes.  She did absolutely wonderful-I guess the meds were needed
• Mom reading to Reagan while waiting and some of the story had Spanish words in it.  Reagan said, "I know those are Amish words."  She also said that she thought that this morning was trip morning since we had woken up so early
• Since she was a trooper, we headed to Target to pick up some shoes.  While there, Reagan must have been feeling the side effects of the morning.  She told Mom "let's head on" and then asked "can we walk faster"
• Nonna and Pops coming over to hang with Campbell and the boys after Dad went to work
• Anderson eating the whole bag of donut holes and half of an apple and Graham was not far behind him
• Reagan having pudding and a few donut holes-when she ate the last donut she whined that she wanted another one.  Pops was ready to drive and buy her another dozen but Nonna had one in the car that satisfied her sweet tooth
• The morning was fairly quiet-actually everyone played by themselves in the den while Mom fed Campbell
• After a late lunch and reading a few books at the table, Graham fell sound asleep.  Reagan tried her hardest to wake him up so he could pull his chain off of the countdown.  She shook him, yelled in his ear and rubbed his head but he never stirred!
• Reagan and Anderson pulling off Graham's chain and their own since we are a few days behind
• Afternoon naps for everyone-but then Campbell woke up for a bottle right during naptime!  She was soon back asleep and Mom even took a quick nap!
• Making banks and painting them before and after nap-Graham doesn't have the painting thing down just yet so he mainly paints his tummy, hands and table
• Dad coming home and everyone having supper and then running a few errands
• Playing at Grannymom's house after dropping off her trip pictures.  Staying over there very late but Reagan had earned a movie before bedtime so her and Anderson enjoyed that while Campbell and Graham went to bed
• Reagan is now sleeping with her new shoes – she did take them off but they are right beside her in bed.
