Lindsay's New Room

Since Lindsay was born, I always felt that purple suited her
better than pink. I've been wanting to paint over her pink walls
for nearly 3 years. I finally did it and we love it!

New Do

Isn't Lindsay's new haircut supercute?

Lindsay at the Dentist

Lindsay had her first visit to the dentist. While these
pictures make it out to be a pleasant visit, I assure
you, it was not. Let's just say that Lindsay was very
interested in all of the tools the dentist had and had to
put her little fingers on them all. She was pleased to get a
new toothbrush, which the hygenist had to use to clean her
teeth because there was no way she was going to allow the
rotating brush in. She loved the water sprayer and spit sucker.
I don't know the technical terms, but you know what I'm talking
about. I was told that most kids hate that part, but not Lindsay.
That was all she wanted to do.

When it was time the dentist to exam her teeth, I had to hold her down
while she clenched her jaws shut. With three of us, we finally got her
mouth open so the dentist could count them. She has all her teeth, no
extras or missing teeth. The dentist told me that we would probably be
visiting an othodontist in the future because her top teeth are very
close together and when she gets her permanent teeth, which are larger,
it will get crowded and they will probably start to twist and turn. Let's
not think about that bill yet.


While the hygenist was coaxing Lindsay to get her mouth open,
a dad walked by with his daughter. He did a double take at
Lindsay and said how cute she was. He said he has a 8 year
old daughter with Ds who was the same way when she was
little. Now she loves going to the dentist. I guess there's hope.

My Kids

No really good reason to post this, but it is a
pretty cute picture of my kids!

Smilin' Kids

We love having cousins Ryan and Owen live
just 5 minutes from us now. I took
Alex, Ryan and Lindsay to the park while Owen
got his check up.
*Notice, they are all looking at the camera
and smiling at the same time.

NC Zoo

For our first day of spring break, we went to the zoo. This is Alex
and Lindsay in some rather large eggs.

This is Lindsay's new favorite way to travel.





The chimp came right up to the glass to check Lindsay out.
At one point they were pointing at each other, but our
camera was too slow.
