My Effing Teeth!

So my teeth have been bothering me for a while. I decided to make an appointment with a dentist here. And guess what... my wisdom teeth need to come out. ASAP! 2 of them are impacted and one of those two is also infected. WONDERFUL! I am so thankful for my dental insurance right now. It took a procedure that would be $3000 down to $400. Yay. I mean $400 still sucks but its WAY better than 3 grand!

I am getting knocked completely out. I guess one of them is stuck in the bone or something like that. I go in Wednesday the 27th at 10:30 am. I am very thankful they were able to get me in so fast. I am being seen by Queen Creek Smiles on the corner of Power and Rittenhouse. For anyone in the area.. I highly recommend them!

So below is a pic of wisdom teeth.. where they are, and which ones I am having removed. This is not my x-ray, but it will tell everyone what I am having removed. The green arrows point to the problem teeth...

Mine right bottom one is growing outwards towards my cheek. My left bottom one is growing at a 90 degree angle to the tooth in front of it. My top two have partially erupted. This is very painful.. and I would recommend that anyone that still has their wisdom teeth have them removed before they have pain!

AAAHHH for dental bills.. I just want to scream! Mine will be $400. Jeffery's is going to cost us $1200. He has to be knocked out completely, because the laughing gas had no affect what so ever on him. That appointment is on the 23rd of June I believe. $600 of that is the cost for him to be knocked out! I guess we should receive some of that back from our ins company.. but it really really sucks that we have to pay the cost up front. Grrr... money sucks.. why cant everything just be free?

Awesome Web Site

http://www.modcloth.com/

I saw an add for this website on the side of my screen on facebook I believe. I NEVER click on them, but the outfit they were showing looked awesome. These clothes are great! I am now using these clothes as my weight loss rewards. I will buy my first outfit when I lose 10 more pounds. 10 Pounds after that.. maybe some neat retro style shoes. I totally dig the 50's style clothing.

The First

My first blog!

Where to start... i'm Erin. Mommy to 3 kids, wife to a wonderful husband. Notice how I put mommy first? Makes me think... don't know what about really.

My husband is currently deployed to Afghanistan, and will be coming home in January... or as my son puts it "after sandy comes". Its really hard to do everything that is required in taking care of 3 kids.. one of them being a 2 month old. Some days I get SO stressed. I wish I could just get over the stress and enjoy my kids. It seems that if its not one thing, its another. One kid crying, one kid hungry, and so on.

Well enough of that. Its 10:30 and I should be sleeping. 10:30.. psshh.. I remember when the party didn't start until 10. Oh how times have changed. No more late nights and dance clubs. Now its early mornings and Yo Gabba Gabba (which is a really weird show btw... "don't bite your friends"). That show is like crack to my kids. When it comes on, they come from wherever they are to watch it, and they actually sit for all 20 minutes of it! Jack Black was their 'dancey dance friend of the day' the other day. HILARIOUS!

What else.. oh yeah, Lorali is allergic to milk.. or sensitive to milk. So that means I can't have ANY dairy products, which TOTALLY blows. I bought some rice cheese the other day. It said "gourmet melt"... YAAAA...NO... more like the magical no-melt cheese that holds it shape up to 400 degrees! It looks like cheese... but tastes like what it is.. rice in a costume.

I miss my husband. I can't wait until he is home again and we are a complete family. Well, thats it world.. im off to bed... Reidhead out
