The twins had there first visit to the dentist today. I wasn’t sure if they were going to have a full dental exam today or just “go for a ride” on the chair. Megan and I went first. (Mike met us there also). The twins were in the room with Megan while she got her teeth cleaned, the hygienist Heather said they were very interested and excited to have their teeth done. It just so happened that my hygienist Rosie and Megan’s hygienist Heather both has cancellations after us so the twins had a full exam – no exams or fluoride, just an exam and polish. They did FANSTANIC! I wasn’t really concerned of them crying, I was most concerned with them not liking the flavors of the polish and such. They were in luck – Annalyse had root beer (the only flavor of suckers she likes) and Meredith had chocolate mint (one of her favorite candies). We held off on the fluoride because it was already 20 minutes after 6 and they wouldn’t be able to eat for a half hour and we hadn’t eaten dinner. Dr. Carlin said everything looks great and no one has to go back for 6 months. Heather was impressed with the eagerness of the girls in the chairs, she said every family usually has at least one crier!

Saturday morning we woke up to our first snow! There wasn’t much and it melted within an hour or two of waking up, but it was definitely our first snow.
And………………………….
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas in the Voakes house. We have our Christmas tree up! We were coming home on Sunday from getting the girls Christmas pictures done (I know we are early, but hey, it wasn’t very busy!) and we saw a house in our subdivision with garland along their railing inside. Mike said we should put our tree up, I told him that I wouldn’t discourage him from doing it – so during the Packer game last night, he put our tree up!
Have a good week! We managed to get two hours extra of sleep because of the time change. One on Sunday (well, not really) and one on Monday. Sunday night I remembered to change the time on my alarm clock but evidently I forgot to set my alarm. All of a sudden at 6:45 am this morning, I heard the twins getting up. I had to first think what day of the week it was and then I had to think what time I usually wake up at. Well, I usually get up at 5:30 and leave by 6:50, needless to say it was a rush and good thing Mike was working close to home today.
