1st dentist appointment 12-8

T went to the dentist for the 1st time today. I was so worried since she hates having her teeth brushed. She didn't see the dentist, but the assistant counted her teeth, brushed them & then brushed them with flouride. I was so proud of her. She did great. She got a Clifford book & got to pick out a little stuffed bird.


Merry SITSmas

Merry SITSmas to all my SITStas. Hope you all have a happy Holiday season. For those of you who never heard of SITS (Secret is in the Sauce) check it out here.

Town tree lighting

Last night we went to the town tree lighting. It was snowing & really cold. I think a lot of people didn't go because of that. We tried to make the best of it. We made this a family tradition last year. We stood near the bonfire for a little while & had free cookies (I had 5 of them. Not sure what my problem is lately. I guess I can blame it on pms this weekend) & hot choc. Then a local church had their free spaghetti dinner with salad & all. We missed the actual tree lighting again this year because we were inside eating. This week is going to be really crazy. We got snow last night. I'll add some pics soon.

Yum of the day

I bought this last week because I had a coupon. It's so good. I brought it out after T'giving dinner. Luckily everyone was too full from the food, cake & pie that they left me some.
