Yeah Salem!

3 cheers for Salem! He can swallow pills now!!! We tried it last year with some allergy medicine and it didn't work. Lots of yelling and crying and wasted pills. So he has been taking chewable pills since then. Last week we talked about trying swallow-able ones again and Salem was enthusiastic about it. We bought a small 5 pack at Walmart for him. The first day it only took him a couple tries to swallow it. After that he downed it the first try! We're so happy for him...and he is too!! Today we stopped at Sam's club and picked up a 75 pack for him.Kids were great today! We went and saw the new Veggie Tales movie "The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything". Great movie!! The kids used their allowance movie and bought a kids pack to eat during it. We need to rent it so Keith can see it to. Only bummer was they didn't sing their pirate song. After that we went down to Learning Ladder a big educational store that has toys and learning things. It's a great place to just wander around. After that was my dentist appointment. The kids again did great waiting in the waiting room. They had their DS's and there is a tv there playing Nick jr shows. I got my one tooth filled. Hopefully I'll be able to eat normally soon! My right side is still sore, the gums are. The left side is sore from the drilling. Still eating soft foods.

After the dentist we went to Sam's Club where Kaden got upset because I wouldn't let him push the cart. He eventually got over it and climbed in the cart. We got some goodies, including poptarts for him, which he then loved me again! It was past lunch time so we hit Burger King which has Pokemon toys in their kids meal.
Came home and played outside. My car needed a good cleaning. Salem helped me clean the garbage out and then I vacuumed it. Salem and Kaden raced around the yard. Salem on his bike and Kaden on his moon shoes, lol. We had big waffles for dinner and I made green slushies for the kids.

We're watching the tour tonight and then early bed. Nothing too big going on tomorrow. Maybe we'll break out the slip n slide!

It looks like Salem has a farmers tan! :o) Great job Salem on the pill swallowing! You sure are growing up fast. I get to go to the dentist this Saturday :o( And probably again another Saturday for more work, I hate the Dentist. I wish I could wait in the waiting room, at least I can listen to my Ipod while I am getting worked on.
