one week left!

So our countdown has finally come down to one week before Kari-Lynn and I hop on a plane headed for Oregon. We leave at 11am on Alaska airlines and arrive in Portland OR at 12:55 pm. We are so excited to be spending Christmas with Daddy and all the fun things we are going to do, including playing in the snow, perhaps visiting the beach, or visiting a science museum!

The past week has been slightly uneventful, though my wisdom tooth has been pushing through for the last few years and has now started flairing up, swelling like it never has before. It was so swollen on thursday morning that I couldn't even shut my mouth. I loaded Kari-Lynn into the stroller and walked to the Urgent Care. There they prescribed me some ibuprofen and some amoxicillin (just in case it was infected) and recommended I visit the dentist, and was informed that my insurance would cover an extraction! When I got home, I immediately called around and found a dentist that could get me in on Monday afternoon. I go in tomorrow to get my wisdom tooth pulled, only six days before I leave for Oregon! I am so looking forward to the relief of having this tooth gone!

Yesterday we spent the day with my Mother in law to exchange gifts for christmas. She got Kari-Lynn a couple of outfits, a couple of books, some hair things, flash cards and the Caring Corners Mrs. Goodbee doll house, which she LOVES!


I hope everyone has a great holiday, and I will update as soon as I can!
