Before I got sick, we had lots of playdates at parks because the weather was gorgeous all week.
On Tuesday Rylan and I met Kelly and Charlie at Fannie Mae Dees Park. I took the boys there when we first moved here but hadn't been back since. The playground and park are great and the boys had fun exploring.
Rylan REALLY wanted to climb this wall ...
Whenever Charlie gives Rylan a hug, he always says, "Aawwwww."
These two appeared ready for naps when they both started staring into space ...
On Wednesday morning the boys both had dentist appointments for a cleaning. Originally their appointments were supposed to be back-to-back, but they changed them so they were at the same time. Luckily it worked out fine. We go to a pediatric dentist so they were in the same room. Carter had a hygienist that was super with him - showing him everything before she did it and letting him feel things. He really liked her. I was then able to sit with Rylan who is still in his super shy phase. He didn't really want to open his mouth but eventually did though the hygienist had to battle his tongue then that he used to try to push everything away.
The staining that both boys have is much better than it used to be now that we use electric toothbrushes. The dentist was able to scrape off the majority of Carter's and a tiny bit of Rylan's. Neither boy had any cavities and the dentist said they both did better than most kids their age do.
Later that morning we met Missy and Heather at the Brentwood Library with their kids for storytime.
Carter wanted to take a picture with Luke ...
One of Carter's preschool classmates came to storytime (Claire) and she sat next to Carter at storytime. Then she also came across the street and played at the park with us. I don't think she ever said a word but had the biggest smile on her face the whole time. (She's next to Carter in the picture below.)
On Thursday our upstairs air conditioning FINALLY got repaired. Another repairman from the company that installed the unit came as well as our builder's warranty representative. Together they found the leak. A nail from the crown molding in the dining room went through the coolant line (on both sides of it). This wasn't our first time dealing with the problem. We had the same thing happen when our new roof was installed in Knoxville (see this post).
Anyway, they had to tear down a section of crown molding and cut a hole in the drywall ...
That was only the second hole they made. They first cut out a large section of drywall in our closet under the stairs ...
A repairman is coming on Monday to repair all the drywall and molding damage. Thankfully all this is covered under our new home warranty. We are sleeping much better now that we have air conditioning again. It's been warm here and the pollen is so bad that leaving the windows open isn't a good option either (plus ours only open from the bottom and we aren't going to risk that with the boys).
My mom is here for a week so hopefully I start feeling better soon and we get to do lots of fun things!
