My youngest has been waking up between 4:30 and 5 the last few days. I have to work tomorrow, Saturday, and Sunday and my husband works Friday so there are no sleep in days in my future. Yaaaaaawn.

We found out yesterday that my almost 5 year old DD has 3 cavities! We are going to see a pediatric dentist in 2 weeks but I am FREAKING OUT about her having to get them filled. We take care of her teeth religiously because SO had issues with cavities when he was young. I never had cavities growing up. DD is TERRIFIED of needles and I am not ok with anesthesia at her age. I have no idea what the dentist is going to recommend but hopefully it's something minimally invasive that poses no risks. She only drinks milk and water and doesn't eat any candy except for 2 cookies that she gets for snacks after school. But she is a big fruit eater and I think nursing to sleep for so long didn't help. We weren't flossing yet because I thought she was too young. Aparently they started between her teeth and only flossing could have prevented it. Wish they had told us that when she was 2:/

They should be able to do them under nitrous oxide and a local numbing aid. DD had a couple of fillings done just before she turned 5.

sammysam Some people just have bad genetics when it comes to teeth, please don't feel like you've done anything. My husband never flosses and had never had a cavity in his life. I've had like 15, despite good dental hygiene. Hugs, momma.

Today was the first day in 12 days that I haven’t had to wear a face mask when I go outside. We have had unhealthy and even hazardous air quality due to fires. It’s been awful and scary while pregnant. It felt so good to breathe outside but it is pouring. I’m also so excited for Thanksgiving tomorrow.

Is anyone shopping today? I usually go out just for the hell of it but DH is working today and I'm not sure I want to venture out alone with 3 kids. Let me live vicariously through you! 😜

Nope. I'm in Canada so I'm just at work today. I might check out the online deals at some point. I need to start doing some Xmas shopping for DD:/

No shopping for me today. I don’t have the inner strength to deal with the crowds. The nausea is also kicking my butt so I’d rather deal with that misery in the comfort of my own home. We might do some Christmas decorating today but that’s probably about it.
