today = fun and exhausting

today was such a fun, but exhausting day. the girls and i left the house at 8:00 this morning and didn't get home until 10:20 tonight! i had a dentist appointment in paola to have the permanent crown placed on my tooth (the last of the big dental work before i can get braces! :/) so, i dropped the girls off at my friend sarah's house and was off to the dentist. now, this tooth that was being worked on was dead due to a root canel done way back in the 7th grade so he didn't think i'd need to be numb. he said 90% of the time it isn't necessary - i looked at him and said i'm pretty sure i'm in the 10%. sure enough, i was. here came the shots (3 or 4, i can't remember), painful! i told the hygentist (who's due with baby #1 in two weeks) that getting an epidural is less painful (and i wasn't kidding!). anyhoot, it's a good thing he did numb me because the stinkin' temporary crown would not come off. he had to cut it in half and take it off in two pieces. lots of shoving and pushing the permanent crown in and 45 minutes later i was out of there. i went back to sarah's house and we had a lovey time chatting about all sorts of things. we can talk for hours and never run out of things to talk about...

lunchtime came and it was time to go. the girls and i tried out the new gambinos pizza buffet. it wasn't too shabby and the best part was the worker didn't charge me for the girls. he said his thoughts were that kids 3 and under should be free because they don't eat much (well, he doesn't know my kids!). ha, molly ate 3 pieces of pizza, a cheese breadstick, and regular breadstick plus had some fruit cocktail. sophie actually had a bit less than normal, only eating 2 pieces of pizza and a breadstick along with fruit cocktail. the worker was in the back, so he didn't see how much food my children were consuming for free!

we made a quick stop at our paola home to grab the hand weights that were left in our coat closet and check the status of the airfresheners and then we were off to sam's house, another wonderful friend. we spent the afternoon gabbing and settling disputes amongst our children who all wanted the same toy at the same time. these kids even fought about picking up the toys and who would pick up what! they were all in much need of naps.

the girls and i left a little before 5 to get molly to gymastics. she did really well tonight and got to do lots of beam work (her favorite). sophie was also very well behaved there (a rare thing) and played nicely with the cars and watched molly. after gymastics we headed to my parents for dinner and to let the girls spend some time with grandpa and grandma. molly pretended to put on plays and so we had to sit in the dark for quite a bit while she seranaded us in a very high pitched voice (yes, it gave me a headache!). sophie was exhausted and spent a great deal of the evening crying. we left and headed home. i carried the girls straight to bed and they are sleeping soundly.

matt should be home in a bit....i'm exhausted. goodnight blogger world!
