Secondly- I love my job! I was insecure about a few things before jumping back into assisting after having no practice for over a year. Embarrassing as it may be, I was nervous about suctioning. Yes, that little thing that you hardly notice while you're in the dentists chair. Well, as an assistant, you have to anticipate where the dentist is going to be and move and be ready before s/he is there. X-rays- no problem. Suctioning, no problem. Polishing, easy easy. Obnoxious? Phone calls. I can do that, just don't like it. I don't like talking on the phone much. Oh, well.
Thirdly- I'm pretty proud of our latest grocery shopping trip. And by "our" I mean Sophie and I - Craig was at a nerdmongerry fest in Salt Lake again.

Next on her list of accomplishments: rocking the crib back and forth while standing until it bangs repeatedly into the wall, while calling out for mom and dad; to be followed by the same sweet Sophie climbing out of the crib like a little monkey to go exploring during the night. Let the good times roll!
ReplyDeleteLet's hope she doesn't take after her mother tooooo much, now!
ReplyDeleteYeah, you banged the crib into the wall to get our attention (which worked quite well, I might add) but you never climbed out of your crib. I caught you one morning as you threw your leg over the rail, looked down, said, "Oh, no, no, no!," pulled your leg back into the crib, sat down, and yelled for me to come and get you. Smart girl!
