This morning felt like an episode to John and Kate plus 8. (A favorite at our house...makes our life seem so tame.) It was time for our bi-annual visit to the dentist and I bravely took an appointment for all 5 us at the 8 a.m. block. (Josie came along and was shuffled to whoever wasn't in the chair at the moment.) If only I had a television crew to document the hilarity. Max couldn't figure out when and what to bite during the x-rays, Ella's nonstop questions to the hygienist, and Josie's pterodactyl scream. (Her famous scream that comes out of nowhere without any warning. I had a friend once who termed such behavior as going from "zero to freak.") Perhaps Hollywood should come calling...yet somehow BTR and AMR plus 4 seems rather pathetic in comparison, don't you think?

4 kids at the dentist - a harrowing experience indeed. I'm so glad you lived to tell. By the way, if BTR & AMR + 4 is pathetic, what would you call our meager bunch??? (j/K)
I have to wonder sometimes exactly how my life would come across on camera. I love watching J&K+8 as well ... makes me feel a little better (and sometimes worse) about how things are going around here :)
