dr, dentist, marriage

Eye Doctor - Check!
Poor B has been having trouble seeing for quite some time and finally took the plunge and went to the eye doctor. He's been avoiding it because he was certain he was going to need glasses and he was right. He's a full time four-eyes now! He hates the idea of wearing glasses so he's already looking into lasik - he's such a character. His doctor told him he wasn't a good candidate at this time...perhaps he should wear glasses for 10 minutes before rushing into surgery!

Dentist - Check!
I've been suffering from very bad headaches and although I have not a received a good why, one of the issues could be issues with my teeth and gums. I spent 2 1/2 hours at the dentist today getting a deep gum cleaning. Yowsers! I was pretty numbed up and luckily I didn't have to go into the office in the afternoon because my face was definitely slacking on the left side. Good news is my mouth feels great. Bad news is I have to go back in two weeks for the right side.

DU Study - Check!
B and I have been participating in the University of Denver marriage study for 11 years and we had our yearly appointment tonight. We went in filled out our questionnaires, got videotaped arguing (they ask you a heated question about your marriage and then leave the room and let you go at it - slick!), more questionnaires, and then videotaped having a friendly discussion. The DU folks said they'd be calling us back next year so I guess we'll take that as a good sign and assume we're still compatible. Grandma and Grandpa Meyer watched the girls this evening so we could participate and already volunteered to watch them for the study again next year. I think they enjoyed their time together. We only got about 2 miles from their house when we received a frantic phone call from Grandma Meyer that we had forgot Annabelle's Shmooze. Boy, that would have been a rough night without the bear! Needless to say, we went back for it and Grandma got a big "Oooooh, thank you, Grandma!" from Annabelle.

Pictures of the girls - Check (kinda)!
I have been a bad, bad momma this week and haven't taken any pictures of the girls. {Insert collective gasp heard 'round the world!} I haven't posted pics since Sunday and according to YaYa that's far too long for a YaYa to wait. I gathered up some old photos that hadn't made the blog and posted them below. I don't want YaYa going through GG and Annabelle withdrawal!! Gotta keep their YaYa happy! I'll be much better going forward.

My sweet little GG is now in to everything and is absolutely a kick in the pants. Her vocabulary is expanding daily and she now uses sign language regularly. My favorites are gentle, milk, please, and more.


B now has 3 ladies to fight for the remote...making sweet, sweet "music". ok, yes we'll call that music!Now here is my little Annabelle. She is sassy pants! She is talking so well these days and she is sure to let us know what she wants. She is still claiming boss status of the house, but she's having a bit more trouble keeping GG in line. She's very organized and likes things her way...I have no idea where she gets that?


She loves reading books and stickers so what on earth could be better than a sticker book?!?! Jennifer gave her a princess sticker book for Easter and it's a coveted favorite.
