We have been spending some down time at the house for the last few days due to the weather and my head. To explain the head part I have to go back to last Tuesday 12/22. I had an appointment with the Dentist to have a root canal fixed. They popped Pretty Woman in the DVD player (that's right this dentist plays whatever movie you chose while they work on you) and layed back. Unfortunately after he got in there he discovered that my tooth was already broken and it would make more sense to pull it rather than try to rebuild it which probably wouldn't last long also unfortunately he didn't have all the supplies he needed to pull it right then so I had to make an appointment to come back on Monday 12/28, which I did.
my mouth hurt for a few days after that because of all the pulling on things they did to get in to my tooth but was ok by the next appointment. On Monday I went back and had my tooth pulled, it is all the way in the back on my left side. Since then it has been hard to talk and eat, I am on antibiotics and pain killers though I am feeling better and better, the first day I spent mostly on the couch but the last two days we have been up and about but I am still taking it easy when doing anything with my mouth. It should be all better soon, I go back to have my stitches taken out on the 11th then in a few months we will start the process of having an implant put in to fill the spot and eventually a crown put over that. It's a long process but this way should last about 30 years rather than the 2 years the Dentist estimated if we had tried to go ahead with the root canal. I am just happy to not have to worry about it after we finish with the implant and crown.
In other news, Chance has been happy and healthy and full of fun. He goes and goes and goes... It doesn't matter whether he sleeps till noon (like that ever happens) or gets up at 5am (much more likely) he is maving all the time. In the first picture you can see he crawling inside a tree when we were walking in the park the other day. In the second picture he is playing outside, The jacket he is wearing is pretty special too. It used to be Scott's it has a sailboat on it with a big 'N' on the sail. It has to be pretty cold for Chance to want to wear a jacket at all and on this day it was so cold Mommy didn't even go outside, this photo was bravely taken by Daddy. The third picture is of our new dishwasher. It was delivered yesterday, I am so happy actually we both are... we have been washing dishes by hand for nearly two months now and we were finally able to get a new, nicer one for Christmas. The one fits so much more and has double the jets of our last one. I never thought I would get so excited over a dishwasher but I truly am.
