Smiles...

I was so glad to get a few stray smiles today! Ben and Conner are still hurting, but we are stocked up on applesauce, pudding, and ice cream!

 

Extraction #2...

Today it was Ben's turn to have his wisdom teeth out! I didn't get many pictures of him today because he was much more emotional than I was prepared for. He took this hard and had lots of questions. The good news is that the surgery went well and although the surgeon said there was more bleeding than normal, we were able to get it under control. We went to a specialty pharmacy to get a compound med that would help the clots in his mouth to stay put. Thankfully, Nick was able to take the day off today so I took Ben to the surgery and Nick was able to stay home with Conner. It has been a rough couple of days!

 

Extraction #1...

Our October has been flying by! Before we knew it, it was time for the guys to both have their wisdom teeth out! The first quarter ends today at school and they have a day off tomorrow, so we scheduled Conner's extraction for today and Ben will have his turn tomorrow. This morning, the boys said good bye and good luck and Ben headed to school and I took Conner to the oral surgeon. His surgery took about an hour and he was much more awake than I expected him to be when they let me see him after the procedure. Ice and meds for Conner tonight, but he is doing well!

 

Weekend...

My parents and my sister's family came to visit this weekend and we were able to attend our niece's marching band competition! It was so much fun watching some of the bands tonight. We also celebrated a couple of birthdays and the cousins had a fun sleepover! We all stayed up way too late, but we enjoyed every bit of it!

 

Addition...

We added some pretty fun furniture to the basement this week! We are going to enjoy this space!

 

Dance!

The guys went to the homecoming dance tonight! They were able to meet some friends and they enjoyed showing off their dance moves!
