The Dentist!


Today was dentist day for the Walters' clan! All four of us had check ups today including Charlotte's first check up! The girls both did SO much better than I expected. Julia checked out the Bernstein Bears dentist book from the library last week and we have been talking about having Granddad check our teeth. When Laurie came out to ask who was going first Julia's hand got about halfway up and then she quickly pointed to Charlotte and said "Charlotte is"! Julia did end up going first though and Charlotte watched every move. They were both pretty cautious about everything going on but neither one of them cried or pitched a fit. Success!

Showing off her clean teeth!
Thanks for the check up, Granddad!

Horse Camp & Movies

Julia had her last day of horse camp today. She has loved every second of it, but I will be glad to sleep in tomorrow! 
 
Charlotte and I headed to Dothan for the morning after we dropped Julia off. Our first stop was Kohl's. She was so funny looking at everything. She would look at something and say "Mama, that's pretty!" or "Mama, you need that!" She asked for some new make up and since it was on the clearance rack for $2 I couldn't tell her no. She was so excited! 
We made a couple more stops and headed to the movies. On Wednesdays and Thursdays the movie theater by Hobby Lobby shows "old" movies at 10 and 2. Today's movie was "The Croods". It didn't hold Charlotte's attention as well as some other movies, but for $3 including a popcorn and a drink it was worth it!
Mrs. Karen posted this picture on Facebook today. Julia said that this was the best week ever! She's just upset she doesn't have horse camp tomorrow.
Our new neighbors came over for dinner tonight. Julia and I made a cake while Charlotte was napping. It's a recipe that I found a couple weeks ago, but I've been looking for an excuse to make it. I made the cake and Julia decorated it. It started out with just a blueberry smiley face and then she filled it in!
 
Ignore her hair, she had just gotten out of the bath! 
Julia and I saved the batter for Charlotte to lick when she woke up from her nap. Julia was pretty hesitant to save her one, but she was excited when Charlotte offered to share it with her!  
Tomorrow is Friday, it's supposed to rain, and we have nothing planned! I can't wait for a lazy day!

Horse Camp

Julia had her first day of horse camp today. To say she was excited is a gross understatement! When I picked her up I asked her what her favorite part was, her answer was "the horses"! 
 
ready for camp

Mrs. Karen posted these pictures of camp on Facebook. Julia rode Bella today. She was off the lead line the entire time and even trotted again. I'm so excited about some progress!
Charlotte and I hung around the house this morning and met Michael for lunch at Torrerro's. Charlotte was so excited to pick Julia up and see "her" horse Lilly, but she fell asleep before we got there. Julia was exhausted this afternoon too but fought a nap like it was her job! Thank goodness for early bed times!
