My Two Front Teeth

Well, not mine, but Marlees. A year and a half ago Mars fell off her chair onto the tile and smacked her teeth and chipped one of them. The chipped tooth had a bubble on the gums above it this week, so I called and asked about it. They had me bring her in this morning and the dentist said that because of the trauma, the tooth slowly died and now needed to be removed. X-rays showed that the other tooth was headed towards the same thing, so he recommended removing both. So thats what he did. And here is the result:Cute! I mean I would rather she had teeth, but oh well. She did really, really good And did everything they told her with no tears! This was a shocker since her last appointment she screamed the whole time and I had to hold her down and pry her mouth open While he took a quick peek.We went to Target afterwards and I told her I would get her a little treat for being so good. She told me she didnt want clothes cause she has enough already and she is sick of clothes, but then looking through clearance she saw this Minnie shirt and had to have it. Not bad for $3.80. Then she worked it and also got this little Squinkies thing, also on Clearance for $5.08. Mommies little bargain shopper! Well, here's to hoping that Greenlei will be our child that doesn't have any tooth mishaps.

8 Almost 9 Months

So, my little Green Bean is almost 9 months, and i've been meaning to post since like 6 months. Sorry mom. She is pretty stinkin adorable as you can see. She started crawling right around thanksgiving (so like 7 - 7 1/2 mos.) She crawled kinda funny at first, one leg would stay kinda tucked in and she would push with the other, but she crawls correctly now. By the end of the next week she was pulling herself to standing on the furniture, and sometime between then and now she started cruising around the furniture. ( I know, my record keeping is immpeccable!)
Here is a good view up her nose. Look, no boogies! She is really hard to photograph though, she is really wiggly. She loved playing in the presents before Christmas and she caused a few tears in the wrapping. I thought it was cute, Bailey not so much. ( Girl can freak over the silliest things!)
And here she is gagging on her dinner. This is a common occurence still. She really doesnt like much. Cheerios, rice, bread, potatoes, and sweet potatoes. Thats it. There were some people on Anderson one day that were adults and they only eat like hashbrowns and something else I cant remember because they cant stand most things. I think Greenlei may have whatever issue those jokers had. Hopefully not.
She is totally sweet and fun. She has always been really good about just relaxing and playing instead of constantly wanting held and entertained like the others. So nice! She sucks at sleeping though, really not a good sleeper. And is a bit rediculous with the separation anxiety, which makes it really hard everytime she is not with me (unless she is in the bath, then she is happy wether I am there or not).
