Dental Woes

This post is to make all parents out there feel better about themselves.  Chris is a pediatric dentist and discovered that Clark needs 4 crowns, despite brushing and flossing. Most kids need to be put to sleep to get all of that work done but we decided to give it a try without putting him to sleep.  He did quite well.  Laughing gas and a movie on the ceiling did the trick for Clark! He got one "silver tooth" and needs 3 more. He's excited to go back!

Technically we aren't supposed to take pictures, but Isaac did it.  I'm innocent.

There's the shiner!

Chris only gave him half of the numbing medicine but he got SO NUMB!

Yep, that's right.  Reward your children for cavities!

Winter Continues

Are you getting tired of seeing "snow" pictures yet??  Here's some of our latest adventures: 

Reflection Lake

 Matanuska Lake Trail - It starts at a University of Fairbanks satellite location farm. Random - but the boys loved the cows.  Isaac talked about the "moos" for days.

He kept dipping his sandwich in the snow to make it a "snow sandwich".

He was crying about 3/4ths of our walk until I taught him to knock the snow off of the trees.

After so much snow, we are ready for our trip to Texas! 80 degrees there!
