A Disney Vacation!!!!

We spent four fun filled, exhausting days in one of my favorite places on the planet.
We ate Thanksgiving dinner at the Disneyland hotel.
By the end of the trip we were all exhausted. we had so much fun.
the weather was beautiful and the crowds were large.
we had such a great time.
(note to anyone reading this, you must experience a Disney thanksgiving once in your lifetime, but next time I think I will go the week after to avoid the 2 hour wait time for nemo, the 1 hour wait for everything else and wall to wall people!!!!)

Have you ever.....

I had a strange experience at the dentist yesterday. I went in for a tooth ache, they took some x-rays and found a cavity underneath a filling I had done a couple of years ago. so the dentist put a shot in my cheek, he started drilling and I started to feel it so I told him and he said he would give me another shot. He told me to take a deep breath and he stuck the needle in the roof of my mouth. all of the sudden I felt an electric shock through my cheek, my nose and up to my eye. I jumped because it hurt so bad!! then all of the sudden I couldn't see out of my left eye. I said Oh my gosh I cant see. the dentist said oops I hit a nerve but don't worry it will only last about 20 min. apparently there is a nerve that runs through the top of your mouth to the cheek bone and the nose and up to the eye. my eye was numb for about 15 min and half of my nose and cheek were numb for about 20 min. so if you are ever at the dentist and that happens to you don't worry you are not going blind, the numbness is only temporary

16 weeks!!!

Sophie has gotten very strong.
She has rolled onto her side,
and it seems like she is very close to making it all the way over to her tummy!!
She has started showing us her sassy side
and likes to scream at us when she is hungry.
She has also been sleeping through the night for about 2 weeks!
I am a happy mommy!!
I love you baby girl!!
