A Week of Firsts

On Wednesday, we ended up at the dentist office for an impromptu dentist appointment for Addi. I had originally scheduled her for a Saturday in January, thinking Ian would take her and deal with her being wiggly in the chair. That was my plan, but when they said that they had an opening right then, I decided to just get it over with. They had her lay on top of me, which worked great for her, she sat completely still while the hygienist polished her teeth. However, it was not so good for me. After a few minutes, I got really light headed, start sweating grossly and was unable to get up for the better part of ten minutes. When the dizziness did not go away, the hygienist decided that I was unfit to drive, so I had to call Marsha to come and pick us up. I don't know if Addi's weight cut off all the blood to my head or maybe my blood sugar just got to low. I called the doctor and apparently it is normal for that to happen in pregnancy, so I guess I'm okay. The good news is, is that Addi's teeth look good. She has one three year molar and no cavities.
Then, on Friday Addi had her hair cut for the very first time by Ian's sister, Chelcie who does hair at a salon in Fountain Valley. Here is the before picture that I took before we went to the salon.

Addi happily getting her hair cut.

For those of you that know Addi, you know that she never sits still. Ever. She shocked us all when she let Chelcie round brush and curl her hair after it was cut.

Addi's last first for the week was her first play session with Von. The picture explains it all...

Addi is growing up so fast. These last few months have been so great with her. Gone are the days of hitting and spitting and going to timeout several times a day. Let's hope that things don't change when the baby comes.
