We had a feeling that something wasn't quite right with Rachel's teeth. Good thing she went to the dentist today. It should only take about 27 more visits before she's looking better :)
Rachel chose these teeth as her 'prize' :) She was so excited to finally be able to go to the dentist. Today was her first ever visit and she did great!! The dentist told her she was the "most patientest" (those were Rachel's words obviously!!). She had a good time and was so happy when the dentist told her that her teeth were the cleanest of all the kids!!
We had appointments for Nathan, Daniel, Peter, Andrew, and Rachel and were there from 2-5pm--WOW! I figured it would be fine since it was Haven's nap time. Hmm, I must have forgotten to remind her. She slept for maybe 10 minutes when we got there, sat in her carseat and played for about 15-20, told me that it would be a good idea if I picked her up, and proceeded to be the bestest baby for the next 2 hours!! She fell asleep for about 30 minutes in there sometime and I fed her before we left. Other than that, she just let me hold her and was perfectly fine. I am so thankful--it could've been utterly miserably if she had been fussy.
The other kids did well, too--they were very quietly "fussy"!! They brought their school to do, but the books and toys that were there proved to be too much of a temptation :) That's fine--we can do school tomorrow. Rachel and Ethan liked playing with the play food, Sarah read, Peter complained, Andrew walked around, Daniel and Sarah played checkers (Sarah won!), and Nathan read and did homework.
Bottom line: no cavities for anyone and we were able to have 5 kids seen for less than the price of one at a 'normal' dentist!!!!!!!! (These were dental students.)

If a picture is worth a thousand words,...
then, here are about a zillion words for you. (I really can't believe a whole month plus has gone by without any pictures. On a positive note, school is going well, papers are getting corrected, dinner is getting made, dishes are getting washed, the kids are getting attention, the house is still a mess, ...)
Well, that gets us through the 21st of September. I don't have any other pictures ready to put on here. I'll try to get them on here soon. (I know you've heard that before, but I really will this time, I promise.) But, anyway, these pictures should be enough for a little while :) I also want to put on some more pictures of Tom and me as little people!!!
*Haven baby book addition: first tooth on my birthday--September 21; 2nd tooth one week later. She weighed in at 18 lbs and was 26 inches long on September 25--the size of an average 7 month old (she was 4 1/2 months). She rolled over for the first time on October 11--she went from back to tummy and then tummy to back within 15 minutes or so. (I think she's my latest one to roll over.) She loves to roll over to her tummy--she's a little wiggly thing now :) She's still the SWEETEST baby around :)
Andrew's 9th birthday--Sept 1
