What a crazy day! Saturday after getting home from our quick trip, I checked out McKay's loose tooth. Ya.... not so loose and another coming in above it, and to top it all off, it was infected! Of course he didn't complain, he really dislikes the dentist! He wiggled that tooth until it was really tender trying to get it out before I took him to the dentist. This morning I called the Dentist and made an appointment to get in today. The most difficult part of the trip is that his dentist of choice is 2 hours away (he comes to Loa 2 times a month, we just missed him!) Dr. Albrecht is so good with McKay, we highly recommend him! I called Marcus, who rushed home to make the trip, so I could tend Payton (My nephew). In the mean time, I decided to take Mia in to the Dr.! What all in one day! Mia who is potty trained, was not wanting to go potty, crying hysterically when she tried, and having many accidents. Dad offered to stay home and tend Payton, so we could be to the Dr. at 11:00 a.m. What a rush! Everyone seems to be fine tonight, a little sore. The dentist pulled the tooth, which would not have come out on its own for another 2 months ! Mia is on an antibiotic and seems to be doing better already. It helps that the kids are all making sure she drinks plenty of water!
I am very appreciative of family close by to help out, and also to a good husband and his employer that would let him leave with five minutes notice to come home.
Over all of the stress, I did find some positive in the day:
Seeing Grandpa Sorensen. He loves visits from NIA (Not and error, he calls Mia that)
As we pulled into the Walmart parking lot, Mia said "another store......Shoot!" Mom and I both laughed! She sounds so grown up!
So much for getting things accomplished today. I did get a calendar ready for preschool (thanks to Marcus' help). The month sounds exciting: a pumpkin patch field trip, Halloween party, field trip to the firehouse, and maybe making Carmel apples (depends on Miss Allison's patients!)
No picture, McKay didn't think the numb look was as funny as we did!

Glad you are all doing better today. All of this running never stops. I asked Cole last night if life could just slow down a little, he said that would be nice. I doubt it will happen.
Carmel apples... yummy!! CAn Dawsyn come up for that day?
We sure enjoyed seeing you all on Saturday.
Love you,
Kimala
Glad everyone is on the mend. Yeah, I wish life would slow down a bit too. But, I don't think it will happen! Karen Cowen (Tom's daughter) had carmel apples for her wedding reception. Sounds like fun!
Hi Allison! I found your blog through Megan's- she left a note on mine, so I tracked you down... By the way, this is Heather Blackwell (Ryan). I saw your cute pictures from the HS reunion and I thought you and Michelle should have tied for the 'not changed since HS' category! Your family is darling! Click on my name to got to our family's blog- I hope you don't mind if I put your blog on my list! Take care!
Hi,
Well, I finally got to this point. I'll see what happens here now. This is all new to me. Glad to hear that the Dr. visits were okay and everyone is feeling better. I'll probably call and get more help as I get more into finding things on your blog. Good to hear from you. See you this weekend. Mom Batchelor
