so proud...

ok - first, as promised!! ta-da!!! here is my first EVER knitted ANYTHING! yes, i used a loom - but that's knitting too, right? now on to my hat...

next - here are the cards that I made a couple of weeks ago, long before it was announced that my favorite cropping spot was shutting down on me:

this is much like one i posted before. different papers and a little closer to the penny rug it's originally based on...

tic tac toe anyone???

and finally...

what i'm MOST proud of today. minime managed to get thru a dentist appointment! Yay! you see, last year when we did it, it was an hour of trying to get her to open her mouth for the 7 minute cleaning. this time, it only took about 3 minutes and AND, she then let them go back in and put a sealant on one (JUST one) of her permanent molars. the other must wait 6 months for the next appointment. two others may require additional work. x-rays will reveal just *what* at that next appointment. but otherwise, mr dentist assured me that her teeth are otherwise in very good condition.

i must also brooch the subject of spacer retainers to her dad. considering we just made insurance decisions and can't change until october - he will NOT be happy. sigh...
