State Fair 2010




My friend Amy and I went to the State Fair this past weekend and took our sons, Josh and Soren. We had a great day with the two boys! The State Fair is a fun event, and luckily there were a few things for toddler boys to do. We took the boys to see the animals at the petting zoo, then to get their faces painted, and finally to "Old MacDonald's Farm". Soren and Josh always have so much fun together....and it's great for me because I love hanging out with Josh's mom, Amy !!

First trip to the Dentist!


Well, the pediatrician told me that Soren was due to go to the dentist for the first time, now that he is 3 years old. So we finally made it to the dentist this summer! I got a referral for a great pediatric dentist in town, so that is who we saw. Soren was a champ! Is is just fearless. We didn't talk about going to the dentist, or what you do....so I was just shocked when Soren jumped up into the chair with not a care in the world. He even got to wear the "cool shades" as you will see. They had a little "Lilo and Stitch" movie playing on the ceiling, so Soren was in heaven. Only bad part about the whole experience....Mom found out that she was using WAY too much toothpaste when I brush his teeth!! I also found out that Soren does not take after me with his teeth, he probably won't need braces at all since he has the appropriate space between all his teeth for his permanent teeth to come in. So I breathed a sign of relief thinking I won't have to save up for braces in the future....however, I did get the dentist's after hours number in case Soren does decide to knock those teeth out someday!!!
