April Catch Up

I know it's already May, but I'm still playing catch up with April!  Here's what we've been up to.

Adler had some dental work done, as she had several teeth where the enamel was actually chipping away.  The dentist had to go in and reconstruct 3 of her molars.  I was so nervous for her (because I absolutely loathe going to the dentist), but she was actually excited about it!  They make it so fun for kids now, with movies on the ceiling, blankets, stuffed animals and special gifts afterwards.  She seriously thought it was fun.  So I sat back, chewed my fingernails and tried to act completely calm.  They've got this pediatric dentistry down to an art now!

Adler attended the cutest spring tea party at her friend Ella's house.  She was so excited that they drank "real" tea.  She also learned what a sugar cube is, and I have no idea how many she popped in her mouth during the party!

Micah was out of town on his birthday, but he managed to get home just in time for a late dinner.  He decided to hit up some local food trailers for his special meal and for dessert we went to Gourdoughs!  That's right, in lieu of cake we had these amazing dessert donuts from one of the most popular trailers in Austin!  Yum.

Owen tried out ice skating at his friend Aiden's birthday party.  He had a difficult time in the beginning, but after a while he started to get the hang of it!

Owen finally lost his first tooth!  Most of his friends have lost 4-6 teeth at this point and he has been anxiously awaiting this moment!!  He was a little freaked out at first by the blood, but got over it quickly!

Here is Adler with her friends Ella and Anna at the Zilker Botanical Gardens!

We took the kids to see the Cat in the Hat performance.  It was really cute and great for young kids!  Adler is still talking about how funny that cat was!

Micah's boss throws the most awesome Easter party every year.  She has been hosting this party for over 10 years now and has the perfect property for it! There were multiple egg hunts (broken down by age groups), other kid games, balloon animals, prizes, food, drinks, and a band!

Egg Toss!
