Let me see those pearly whites!

I took the girls to the dentist today. This was Emily's 3rd time and Allie's 1st. At her first appointment, Emily did awesome. No tears, no fighting, perfect. The second time I took her I took Allie with us so that Emily could show her how easy it was. Yeah....it took 3 of us to restrain her. Needless to say, I was a little concerned about how today would go. There were tears, but it went much better for Emily this time.
Then it was Allie's turn.
I never know what to expect from Allie. This is the child that has a screaming fit over the smallest things, but doesn't cry when she gets shots at the pediatrician's office.
She climbed right into the chair like a champ. We go to the same dentist as the Gosselin children (Jon and Kate Plus 8), so the dentist gives sunglasses to protect the kids from the paparazzi...


Just kidding....not about the Gosselin part, they really do go there, but about the sunglasses-they are so the light doesn't bother their eyes.

Allie was very interested in all the tools Dr. Kristin used


I am so proud of my big girl! She did great!



Check out that shiny, cavity free smile!

A little crafting fun...

Emily was begging to do a little Christmas craft today and I had to improvise quickly. I wanted something the girls could do pretty much do on their own with limited help from me while I cooked dinner.
We decided to make some little reindeer. I thought they could both make Rudolph, but Emily nicely explained to me that "no one ever draws or sings about the other reindeer" Well said Emmmy! :-) Emily decided to do Blitzen and Allie did Comet.

I drew some triangles for the face and let Emily cut them out---she took this job very seriously!


I found some foam that we traced hands on to make the antlers. We chose yellow for a little flair!
The girls colored their reindeer and decorated the faces



Next Emily glued on the antlers


And....VOILA! Our reindeer were complete! Emily did one extra--this time she did do Rudolph because "Mommy, he is the most famous one", but she gave him purple antlers because that is Mommy's favorite color!


So....not a hard craft by any means, but the girls had fun, I got to cook dinner and we have a little extra decoration for our Christmas house!

I'm Baaaack!

I really am going to try and update this blog again. It's been a crazy couple of months, but I think I am getting back on track! I plan to start posting the fun crafts the girls and I are doing and keeping everyone up to date on the goings on of the HipHickChick House!

That was quick....

I very quickly set up a blog for Baby Sew Chic!

It is clearly still in the beginning phases, but please bookmark it and check back often!
