the cake, the circus, the teeth, & the "click"

alrighty----a little catching up to do. great. this should be fun....and take about an hour! geez i wish i was getting better at this!

so, where were we? yep. rae's birthday was on a wednesday, so we had cake & ice cream friday night. we just had my sister's family (+1, hehe) & cara and her girls over. nice & small and super fun. we dug into the dancing fairy barbie cake (or whatever kind of pink & purple yumminess it was called) & opened presents. the kids were w-i-r-e-d!!

on sunday we headed to the target center for the circus. now, it wasn't the best circus....not by a loooong shot. but since rae & beast hadn't been to one before they thought it was great!! we learned a few things......

we could be related to the human cannonball

half-dressed girls amaze boys of all ages (i don't really know what they are looking at!)

blue snowcones leave you with a longlasting blue mouth

a few days later, tuesday to be exact, mattie & i headed to north branch so i could have my wisdom teeth removed. now, i was terrified for my pre-op consult, but this day i was fine. a little bit nervous, but fine. i had literally just sat down in the waiting room when they called me back to the little room. still fine. we talked for a few minutes while the doctor & her asst got me all set up, they put my iv in, & off we went. i had chosen mild sedation instead of general anesthesia so i could tell them that i was ok. i didn't like the idea of being put out completely. but when i chose sedation, i thought i'd be really out of it. not so. they barely gave me any. the only way i could tell i had it was that the texture on the walls waved at me for a few minutes & my heartrate stopped going up every time they even looked at a machine. that was it! i was shocked! i was very, very aware. and i actually liked it. the doc, asst, & i laughed & talked the whole time!! the only time i made any other noise was when she took out my bottom teeth. and they were HUGE. (wish i'd had the camera with me!!)

anyway, it was fine. i hardly took the pain pills. they're sitting upstairs collecting dust. and i haven't had any problems. i go back this friday for a quick check-up....and so they can see the kids. that's all they really care about anyway!!! so, no excitement with the teeth---unless you count mattie's $135 speeding ticket on the way to the pharmacy that is!!

ok, i've done the cake, the circus, & the teeth. onto the "click." guesses????

i'm talking about this cutie

now, it's no secret i've questioned his development. his doctor assured me i have nothing to worry about. and i know after the past 2 weeks that i really shouldn't have worried.

my little boy will NOT stop talking!! that's the click. he would repeat & say a few words, but the darn kid just won't stop now! oh, he still repeats. and repeats alot. in fact, just today our fabulous daycare provider told me "he repeated EVERYTHING i said today!" so every time she opened her mouth, every kid heard what she said twice. once from her. once from my little beast. he talks non-stop. (well, until we get to friends' houses that is. then he's quiet as a mouse)

my favorite is his little yes. well, yeSH. i giggle every time. beast was on the phone w/ my mom this past weekend & she told him she likes the way he says yes. he just said yesh right back. too cute.

now i'm just waiting on the shitfuck to come flying out of his mouth like it did rae's!!!
