Today was Toby's appointment with the oral surgeon to have his extra tooth pulled. BJ stayed home with Norah. The whole appointment took up an hour and a half, but it only took the dentist 5 minutes (maybe less) to pull out the tooth. Thank God for Scooby Doo on the portable DVD player! Toby did great! He put up with the laughing gas and Novocaine like a champ and then settled in to watch his movie. The dentist popped in, checked the numbness of his teeth and then took out the extra tooth. So quick!
Toby is thoroughly enjoying his day of recuperation. So far we've watched movies, drank yogurt, eaten blue, red, and green Jell-o, and built crazy Lego castles. Now, while I'm trying to do a few things on the computer, he's pretending to be a hair dresser and styling my hair. He just said to me, "These corks are to make your hair a little more stylish." He just pinned old wine corks in my hair. :o) (The reason the title is in quotes is because this is supposed to be his quiet time, and therefore my "quiet" time. Doesn't always happen, though.)
In an hour we drive BJ to Providence for a flight to Prague. My newest find out that way: a Chipotle! We don't have any quality Mexican food nearby (or anything that qualifies as Mexican), and I stumbled across a Chipotle last week while on an adventure with the kids to go to our nearest REI (also near the airport in Providence). While driving around to get to the REI I also discovered a Ted's Montana Grill and I found the elusive Trader Joe's (also the closest one to us in CT). This seems to be the norm around here: you drive around the same place hundreds of times and then you discover something that's been there all along.
I just got up to grab a drink and noticed a bird is in our enclosed porch. Gotta run before Toby decides to adopt it (or before our porch gets overrun by small animals).
