Ella and Andrew are off this week for spring break, and what kid doesn't enjoy a visit to the dentist on their spring break :) Actually Andrew has always loved going to the dentist so it was very important that Ella's first trip be pain free and as pleasant as we could make it. I also had my dentist appointment, so we had Ella sit with me and we tried to explain everything that they were doing so she would know before it was her time. She did great. We just did xrays and teeth cleaning today. We know we'll have our fair share of dental appointments in her future, but we wanted to keep this one a happy visit.
Our dear friend Betsy watched the two little ones while we went to our appointments, so when we were all finished, had collected our loot from the toy chest and picked up our balloons, we headed to Aunt Betsy's house. She has the best back yard - a gorgeous view of the lake and a fabulous swing set for the kids to play on. The weather was fabulous, so we spent the rest of the day playing outside.
William finally got over his concern about walking on the grass. At first he just wasn't sure what that was and wanted to nothing to do with it. But soon he was crawling and walking all over the place. Ethan on the other hand wasted no time in walking all over the yard, searching for the best stick.

| Ella - love that smile as she enjoyed the swing |
 |
| William - still not too sure about that grass |
 |
| Look at that smile - Ethan wins me over every time with that smile |
 |
| That grass finally was conquered - and he tackled the hill with a little help from his big sister |
 |
| I can't believe how big Andrew is getting... |
 |
| ...but certainly not too big to try rolling down the hill |
We had a great time, and it was the perfect end to the day - made everyone forget that the day actually started at the dentist.
