4 teeth - 4 teeth = 0 teeth

From what I can tell without being bitten, all four of Paige's canine teeth have come in now which makes her teeth total 16. Yesterday I went to the dentist and got all four of my wisdom teeth removed. So that makes my teeth total 28. So the title of this post is the equation that best sums up our recent teeth gain as a family. hehe.

I was so happy to have our backyard play area yesterday. I just felt like taking it easy yesterday, and they had told me to do so. Mike watched her in the morning, but in the afternoon it was up to me. It was a fairly warm day and after Paige got up from her "nap" (she didn't sleep), I let her watch a couple of episodes of Dora, then we went in the backyard where she went down the slide a ton, and played in the sandbox. The most I had to do was occasionally shuffle my chair backwards to take advantage of the dwindling sun. She was out there for more than an hour, and even had a yogourt as a snack on her little table. Sometimes it's nice to be able to get out of the house without going anywhere, you know? We can easily go for a walk in the morning, into the backyard in the afternoon, and for another walk after dinner on a nice day. I'm looking at the weather now and it looks like rain. We're stuck at the house for another 2 hours or so until it has been 24 hours since my teeth came out (I can then finally brush my teeth and rinse my mouth!).

I don't think I even mentioned it, but I had been looking at Kijiji to search for a used toddler slide. When one came up from someone in Burlington, I jumped on the offer and went to pick it up a couple hours later. It is faded from the sun, but does the trick for sure. I can let her go up and down it without worrying about her hurting herself if she falls off since it is so small and close to the ground. Such a great addition to the backyard as she goes from the sandbox to the slide, back to the sandbox, kicks a ball around, has a snack, etc. We can spend an hour or so out there easily.
