Nolan's 1st Dentist Appointment
Nolan had been chewing on his finger a lot this past week and I figured out why this morning. I noticed three new teeth that must have all broken through over the past week. That brings his grand total to 16 teeth! The dentist was surprised that he has so many teeth. Only four more to go until he has his complete set of baby teeth. I had low expectations as far as how Nolan would react to the dentist and being in the chair. He cried throughout the whole thing but at least they were super friendly and very quick! Nolan sat on my lap and we both laid back in the chair together for the appointment. Even though he cried during the cleaning, at least I could hold his arms down and attempt to comfort him. So needless to say, I'm glad it's done and Nolan now has a mouthful of clean pearly whites!

Happy 4th!
I hope you're all having a fabulous summer! We just got back from the Hurter Reunion at the family farm in Paris, KY (just outside of Lexington). Nolan had a lot of fun playing with all the little kids and loved being able to see cows, horses, and dogs!
We're looking forward to a laid-back relaxing weekend up in Lake Geneva for the 4th. My parents can't wait to get Nolan to the beach and out on the boat! On Tuesdays and Thursdays, we're taking parent/tot swimming lessons at our park district pool and he's doing really well. Yesterday he was all about sticking his whole face in the water to try and blow bubbles. He kept doing it over and over again. Pretty funny.
Nolan's latest fascination is trucks. He points out each and every one as it passes on the street and he tries to say "truck". He's repeating so many more words lately. And he's obsessed with humming the tune to "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star". The first time Dave and I heard him do it, we just sort of looked at each other and asked "Did he really just sing Twinkle, Twinkle"?! I found out that they sing it at daycare a lot so that's where he picked it up.
Everytime Nolan sees Elmo now whether on a book, toy, or on TV, he'll clearly say "Elmo" so that's definitely his newest word. And just a couple weeks ago he started saying "cheese" everytime we took his picture. What a ham!
Have a great holiday weekend!
