"Doctor Make Teeth Shiny"

Lola went to her first dentist appointment today (I know, we're negligent). She was hilarious and she loved it. After they were all done, she said "doctor make teeth shiny!"  She got a great checkup -- they said she had beautiful perfect teeth.

Great Ice Storm of 2009

Kentucky was hit hard by an ice storm the last couple of days.  400,000 people were without electricity in the freezing weather and the National Guard has been called in.  Yikes!  We were lucky -- only lost power for about 12 hours.  We also lost the gutters along one side of the house.  You can see how thick the ice was on the tree branches in the first picture . . .

The house across the street looks very bad . . .

Baby Z, Part Deux

We had another ultrasound of Baby Z yesterday.  All the parts are there, but the doctor said we were two weeks behind where we thought we were.  Dunno about that . . . 

With this newfangled technology they've got these days, they were able to give us 3D images of the little guy/girl cookin' up.  Here's a nice foot and crotch shot, for those of you inclined to analyze such things:

And finally, here's a semi-creepy shot of Baby Z looking rather Homer Simpsonish.  The blob on the right is Susan's adorable placenta:

Lola's First Haircut!

Lola went to the salon today for her very first real haircut.  She obviously enjoyed the pampering and the attention.  Thanks Rebecca!
