Lexi had a dentist's appointment today. It was the first one where she actually had her teeth cleaned. She was crying a little bit at the beginning but she soon calmed down and cooperated very well for both the hygentist and the dentist. Her teeth are rather close together and she has an overbite, but no cavities so we will just have to see how her adult teeth come in. Lexi even talked to the dentist which is kind of unusual - I couldn't get her to say a word at her 4 year old health check up the last week of July. She left with a new toothbrush, some toothpaste and a purple monkey which she enthusiastically played dentist with once we got home.
We went to the park after supper as it was a beautiful evening. She was acting so squirrelly some other kid there (maybe 8-10 y.o.) asked me if she had had a lot of sugar. No clue why she was so hyped up but she definitely was as she danced around and shouted nonsense. Leaving the playground she said she missed everyone and that her heart was broken. I couldn't get her to clarify who 'everyone' was but I thought it was funny for her to say that about her heart.
I will start having weekly monitoring visits for Baby #2 next week. There is nothing wrong but because of my thyroid condition and my age they want to do a whole lot of monitoring just to make sure everything is ok. This child is as active as her sister was in the womb and does a lot of pushing and kicking on my abodomen. I am ready for the end of September to be here and this baby to be out in the world.
Lexi and I checked out a daycare last week that is close to home and has good (long) hours. I think it will work out fine and it's not outrageously expensive.

Sounds like all is going as well as expected.
