Quick 5

This Quick 5 is brought to you by Jamie's 35th birthday.

1.  Resurrection Sunday was a good day in the Kimble house.  The girls were decked out, services were blessed, the eggs were hunted, the ham was eaten.  It was a grand celebration all around.

2.  Bria got to participate in her first Easter egg hunt.  Except I had a hard time convincing her to actually hunt the eggs.  She was just excited to be outside.  Thankfully she has older sisters who will finish the tasks she finds to be droll.

Can you see the jelly beans in the grass?  Who needs to hunt eggs when you can just dump the jelly beans on the ground and then eat them?

 3.  Like I said, Bria was just excited to be outside.

 4.  Joya's tooth repair went beautifully.  Our first pleasant surprise was that it only took us 25 minutes to get to the dental office.  Dr. Beth is out in Parker, and that always feels like going to Kansas for us.  But it truly only took about 5 extra minutes to get there than it does to our regular office, thanks to the miracle of highways.  Then Dr. Beth was AMAZING.  She's so nice and quick and just gets kids.  Joya had brought a Jessie doll with her, so Dr. Beth examined her teeth first, to show Joya how she was going to do it.  Then quick as a wink they whisked her back to the operatory and I slipped out to the waiting room.  It only took them about 10 minutes to do a full strip crown, and Joya's tooth looks like it always did.  Dr. Beth was worth the drive, and would have been worth the drive if it had taken an hour to get out there.  It is so nice to know that she's there if we need her.
And then Joya got to do her favorite thing: eat at a rest-a-rant.  Sonic totally counts.

5.  Bria has been under the weather this week.  That girl never had so much as a fever until she was 21 months old, and now I feel like she gets sick All. The. Time.  I thought for sure we were going to have some croup nights, but thankfully that didn't happen. Oh we didn't sleep well because of the pitiful moaning, but no scary coughing, thank the Lord.  She ran a fever Monday and Tuesday, but has been fever free since then.  But she sounded like she may have lost her voice, and has a nice junky cough every now and then.  Last night she slept MUCH better, which is a good sign.  And she's as active as ever.  But for the love, it's like she's making up for being so healthy for the first 21 months of her life. Hopefully this is the last hurrah.

Glorious weekend everyone!
