More of the Family Visit

One of the nights Adam's family was in town we were able to go snowboarding. Grandma and Grandpa stayed and babysat....we are so lucky to have good Grandma and Grandpa's. This was such a fun night, for me anyway, but I'm sure we all had a fun time. I hadn't been real snowboarding for 2 years and it only happened once that season. I was a little nervous but it was like riding a bike. It felt so good to not have to worry about Molly and Elley and just enjoy myself with my in-laws.

Lions, Tigers, and Bears...oh my!

A few weeks ago, we were SO lucky to have Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Andrew, and Aunt Maggie come and stay with us. We did lots of fun things and Elley was so excited to have another princess at our house.....right Maggie? Elley watched Aunt Maggie put her makeup on every morning and Aunt Maggie was so nice to let Elley wear all her jewelry and try on all her lipstick.
One of the fun things we did was a trip to the zoo. It was a little cold this day but I think we all had fun regardless. It wasn't very busy and all the animals were braving the cold weather. Here are a few pictures from that day!
Grandma Pat is so brave and adventurous

Dentist

Elley went to the dentist yesterday for the first time. Well, actually it was the second time, the first time was so traumatic that he didn't even get a good look. And, we went to a new dentist...... which I think helped too.
On our way, Elley is showing me her teeth

She was so excited! She jumped right into the chair. The only thing she didn't like was the way the chair moved.


Look at that big girl! She had a purple "bib" (not sure of the technical term) that matched her shirt.



She even let them polish her teeth. She was so brave! She has 20 teeth, 10 on top and 10 on the bottom....and none of them have cavities....YAY Mommy!
