Thumb Guard


Well, Luke had his dentist appointment this morning. Surprising he went in and handle it like a champ. Last time we went they told us to begin talking with him about eliminating his thumb sucking. That in itself is a pain in my butt. I tried and we stayed on him. His mouth hasn't gotten any better, more than likely due to night time sucking. They told me to order a thumb guard. I was thinking it was $20-$30 bucks. WRONG...$70 plus shipping. I plan on ordering it, but let me tell you now...I will be pissed if it doesn't work. I am also a little disappointed that all the doctors claim thumbsucking is no big deal until they are 5. Dentist believe 3-4 thumb sucking should be given up. It is so hard for him, and I will be bracing myself for long nights with little sleep.

Where did the week go?


I wish I had something fun to report, but I don't. The Mize house has been on lock down for the past week. Not the type of family fun I was looking forward to. Mackenzie ended up with an ear infection and RSV, so me being the responsible mom I am refused to go anywhere that other kids might be hanging out. As crazy as I get staying home, it just isn't worth getting another kid sick. I am hoping she kids it by this weekend because breathing treatments with a 14 month old SUCK! I dread it. Luke is feeling better and I know this because he spent a large part of his day in timeout due to testing the waters. The picture is one of Luke's gifts from Santa. This Mack Truck is all I heard about for months. He loved it and hasn't put it down all week.

My goal next week is to fins a preschool for Luke. It is crazy that registration begins the end of the month. GEEZZZZZ...I am thinking I should start a preschool. They charge way too much around here. Luke will also be starting soccer. Should be hilarious!
