Bella's Dentist Appointment

The Tuesday before Thanksgiving, I had to take Bella to the dentist down in St. George. She was excited to go, but I did notice that when we got there she got a little scared. She did, however, handle the appointment like a champ. :) The dentist said she will definitely need braces when she gets a little older (which I already knew because sadly she got MY jacked up teeth) lol.

We are going to have to make her a orthodontics appointment to deal with some issues with her molars, but we are waiting until the new year to deal with that.

Here she is chillin' in the chair, watching some Animal Planet.

Halloween Weekend

Well I had a pretty good Halloween weekend. I had to work Saturday morning, but only until about noon. I got a call from Bella that morning also, she had to tell me the tale of her costume evolution. When she went to school on Friday she was dressed as a princess (beautiful as always)...well I guess some kids made fun of the fact that she wasn't "scary". So she ended up going trick-or-treating as a "Zombie Bride".


I think she pulled it off quite nicely. :)

I also went and saw Anissa's new place. I'm sure it will look quite nicer once she has all her stuff put away. Then I went to Tonya's and visited with them for a bit. Went for dinner to Mongolian BBQ with Lynn, Mom, Anissa, Anje and Shaylie. Haven't eaten there in quite some time so it was delicious.

On Sunday, Lynn and I went on a shopping trip around town trying to find the Tootsie Child's Play candy mix bags for 50% off, but everywhere we went was already sold out of them. :( We were looking to get our flavored Tootsie roll midgees fix for the year. Oh well...maybe next year.

We ended up going to see the movie Couples Retreat. We got a kick out of it. There were some pretty funny parts in it. We then went to restaurant that Lynn has wanted to go to pretty much since we met nearly 6 months ago...it is called Anasazi Steakhouse. The main reason she has wanted to try this place out was for their fondue, however, their main entrees ended up being absolutely delicious as well. Lynn got the Shrimp and Scallops duet which she ordered "Hot off the rock" style. I ordered the 12 oz. Top Sirloin "open fired" style (grilled). To finish off we had the Dark Chocolate fondue (they have about 8 different chocolate fondues). With each pot they serve: Cheesecake, Brownies, Cream Puffs, Bananas (Lynn's favorite), Grapes, Strawberries, and pretzels (my favorite). We totally recommend this place to eat. A little on the expensive side, but not too bad overall. :)

Ended the evening by relaxing at home watching "The Amazing Race" while we let our stomachs settle from all the food we shoved in there.

Couldn't have hoped for a better weekend. :) I hope everyone had a similarly great weekend and Halloween. :)

Much Love,
Chad

Poptropica Halloween

Here are Bella's poptropica character and my poptropica character. She wants them to get married so we are Frankenstein and the Bride of Frankenstein. What great characters to be for the month of Halloween!

Much Love,
Chad and Bella-boo.

Bella's First Day of School

Here is a picture of Bella on her first day of school. She started first grade this year and has been doing very well. She has always loved going to school. I am glad that she enjoys it. She is one smart little cookie and I am very proud of her. :)

Sorry it has taken so long for me to get an update on here. Not a whole lot has been going on with me. During the month of August the Cedar City airport was closed down so they could resurface the runway. It was nice to have the time off. I was able to get Bella for about 10 days during that time which was great. I had a lot of fun hanging out with her. While she was with me she started getting another wiggly tooth, so when she got back to Krissy's, they were able to pull it out and Bella was way excited to have yet another tooth gone. :)

Lynn and I are still doing great. She has started back up in school so we are having to work around both of our schedules to get some time to hang out together. It will be easier when October comes around.

SkyWest is switching their schedule around so I will in turn be switching my work days to Wed-Sat. I haven't had a weekend day scheduled off since I started working for TSA seven years ago. This will be much nicer, in fact it will be like having the whole weekend off because I will only have to work Saturday morning and then I am done. This is probably the best schedule I've had for quite some time.

Tooth Fairy Time!!!!

Well, the time has finally come. Bella has lost her first tooth! :) She is super excited. She told me that it didn't even hurt when Krissy pulled it out with the string. I'm way happy for her. She wouldn't stop playing with that tooth at Lagoon. lol

In other Bella related news, she is NOT moving down to St. George this summer. She and I both are totally bummed about it. She misses her cousins badly. I'm glad she was able to see the girls at Lagoon and that she'll get to see them again over the 4th of July weekend.

Much Love,
Chad
