Whew! This has been a week...

Saturday we took David to the water park and of course he had a blast! We then took him for his 2nd hair cut! The kids hair grows fast! We take him to a place in Benton, which is about 20-30 mins away, but it's worth it. He gets to sit on a carousel horse while getting his hair cut and the girl that cuts it is very good with kids. He just sits and watches her in the mirror, doesn't fuss at all. The attached picture is from his 1st hair cut just to show you.

David has developed a fake "cry". It cracks us up, I took a video of it but it's too big to post, so I'll have to take a shorter one or figure out how to edit the one I have. He is the master of pouting and is very good at throwing temper tantrums already! He'll throw himself on the floor, in a sitting position, and put his head down to where it's almost touching the floor and cries. It's so pathetic it's cute.

Anthony got stung twice by a wasp while mowing the backyard. He said there were a couple of him and they just attacked him as he was weed whacking some bushes. He also stepped in a huge ant hill and got bit several times on his ankle.....it wasn't a good week for him.

I had 3 migraines this week! I was really hoping that after having David I wouldn't get them anymore like my friend Michelle B., but no such luck...I think they came back with a vengeance to make up for all time I was pregnant and didn't get them. That's probably why I enjoyed being pregnant, I never had a migraine nor was sick.

David had his first visit to the dentist this morning....I know some of you are thinking "Already?", but he was missing some enamel from one of his front teeth..it just never formed correctly. It made it look like he had food stuck to his teeth all the time and it drove me NUTS! He never complained or fussed that it hurt with hot or cold food, but our doctor said we should take him in and have it checked.

David was a STAR patient! He laid in the chair and let the dentist look and scrape his tooth and then let the dentist actually put a filling on it. He only started to fuss because he was laying down for too long and because we were holding his arms down so he wouldn't stick his fingers in his mouth. The filling is the same color as his teeth so you cannot even see it; said it would last until he was about 7 but would need to have it checked every once in a while. The tooth already looked like it was getting a cavity. Dentist said when a cavity starts to form, the tooth gets soft and his tooth was a little soft. After it was all over, David got to pick a toy from the closet and he took a small pony and of course some stickers to wear on his shirt.

We are finishing packing up tonight for our vacation that starts tomorrow at promptly 2pm!!!!! We are going to NJ to visit Anthony's family, going to the beach, the boardwalk and the Zoo with Silvia (one of Anthony's dear friend for a long time). We'll be gone for 7 whole days!!!!! Anthony is taking his computer, go figure, so I'll be able to update you while on vacation when we sit down to relax at night.
Stanley is doing much better, is eating and gaining his weight back. I'm really surprise because he was so sick just a few weeks ago and I would have put money on it that he wouldn't make it through the summer. I'm glad he proved me wrong, but he's back to whinning, barking and hanging all over David's high chair when we are feeding him. LOL David and Doc are becoming best friends...Doc lets him hang on him, step on him, hit him and he does absolutely nothing. He even plays chase with David - David wil walk up to Doc and turn around and walk away fast laughing and Doc will run REALLLLY slow after David. I took this picture just the other day, Doc was laying in the door way and David walked over and just laid next to him...it was precious.
One last thing, sorry I know this is long but I'm playing catch up!

Our son likes to wear bracelets! Anything round with a hole in it goes on his wrists and he'll walk around proudly showing it off.....here he is in the bath tub with 2 little life preservers as bracelets. He wore them the whole time he was in the tub.
