Going to the Dentist

I am going to play catch up...

Mid-September Etta went to the dentist for the second time. The first time she just met people and got to sit in the chair.

But the second time was "for real". She got her teeth flossed, polished and varnished. She sat right up - and laid right down - and was a very good girl.

Sportin' the shades to protect the eyes.



Layin' it back.



Let's get polished!

First Meeting

Uncle Erik got to meet his second #1 girl this weekend.

Well, hello there! (Same look of love as last time.)



Let's just chill.

Bag lady

Lately we've had a lot of gift bags around the house. I love Etta's imagination!

Baba Eddie Had Some Girls...

(To be sung to the tune "Old MacDonald Had a Farm...)

And they loved him very much.

Serious face. Can you smile, please?



Okay, that's a little cheesy. Did you learn that one from Erik?



Just right.

Really Trying

I am really trying to get pics of Mae...but it's a little harder the second time around...

What's that?!



Keeping the eyes open a bit longer these days.

And Baby Dolls

Etta also received two baby dolls at the shower. And continuing with her naming theme they are known as Etta (the bigger doll) and Mae.

New Wittle Dogs

More dogs, you ask? The best kind in my opinion.

Feeding...



Walking... ('Scuse me Tubs)



Brushing...



Hauling. (Check out her "sick" eyes. She's had cold for a week and is now sharing it with Bob and I.)



These were a gift from a family at Beacon Christian - the school where I now (well, again in January) teach band. They threw a shower for us last Thursday and both girls got many nice things. Etta, being two, named the darker dog Tubs and the white dog Lena. She walks them, feeds them, brushes them, and puts them "outside" in the music room. All great imagination things. Except for the day we discovered her letting them get "drinks" from the real dog water and "giving them a bath like daddy". It's just water I guess...
