I thought last Friday was the 13th...

I'm not actually superstitious, but yesterday was such a weird day! So many weird/bad things happened yesterday. Most of them were small...but the combo of it all made me and Johnny wonder what is going on!

First of all, Cohen had to go to the dr for his one year checkup. He is completely fine, 50% for height and weight, very proportioned, (but 95% for head...go figure) but he had to get a few shots. He has already been cutting teeth the past 3-4 days and been pretty darn grouchy!
Then I dropped him off at home with my sister (who was babysitting) and Ava, and I went to my dentist appointment. I have this tooth that is pretty much EVIL. It was the first tooth I ever had a cavity in, back in high school. Later, when I was pregnant with Maddie Kate, my dentist in Nashville discovered that it had another cavity under the original filling. So I had to have another one. Then a few years ago, it went bad again and I had to have a root canal done on it. Back in November, it started hurting again, and the dentist ended up doing a second root canal on it. I mean, isn't that crazy enough? Once the roots are dead, we should be good right? But no, I had a second root canal on the same tooth. Well, last week it started hurting again, and over the weekend my cheek swelled up like a basketball, so I started taking antibiotics that I had another refill on that the dentist had given me before...got the swelling down and pain down. This finally brings me to yesterday. I went to the dentist and he x-rayed it. He thinks I either have another root or a crack in a root, so he is sending me to a specialist. If it is a crack, there is nothing else they can do and they will have to do an extraction and I will have to have a bridge! Ahhh! If it is an extra root...(which mom says my brother had an extra root when he had a root canal done...so who knows) then he will have to do a THIRD root canal. AHHHH! Either choice is not cool....but I guess I would prefer the root canal...even though those are miserable too!

Okay, then last night I'm fixing dinner and Johnny decides he wants cookie dough. This is pretty much tradition around our house at least once a week to make cookie dough and eat it raw. (I have been trying not to eat it lately though! lol) Ava always wants to help with any baking/cooking, so she drags up a chair to the counter, and while Johnny is getting out the other ingredients, Ava decides to get out the flour:



Yup, this is what happened! The flour is in the pantry, which is off of the laundry room, and she apparently dragged it off the shelf and the lid fell off...she was just upset because her new boots (the cute striped ones) that she got for Christmas had flour on them!

So then Johnny stops making the cookie dough, and starts to clean up the mess. We just got a new bagless vacuum, and we were afraid flour might poof out of it...but it didn't too bad. So while he is vacuuming, he steps on the floor vent, and gets electric shocked! He said it felt like it went in his foot and up his whole body! He had to stop vacuuming for a few minutes because it made him feel real weird. I touched him right after that and he shocked me, so it must have been something really strong. Then he goes ahead and vacuums the rest of the flour, then we dumped out the container on the vacuum, but the inside part is covered in flour, and we don't know how to get it out. So Johnny gets the old vacuum out of the garage, and vacuums the vacuum! (Danny Tanner, anyone?) So he takes out some parts, including a filter, and it's there on the floor while he is vacuuming, and he accidentally vacuumed up the little filter from the new vacuum with the old vacuum!

Are you still following this?? I know it's nuts...

So we take the bag out of the old vacuum (which is a very full bag, by the way) and he starts digging through it to find the filter. We finally cut it open and dug around in it and he found the filter. Then he had to wash out all the parts/filters and set them out to dry. They are still sitting there...I really hope the new vacuum will still work...we might need new filters though? I don't know!

Then right after supper I made him the cookie dough...at least that tasted good! After that I went to switch a load of laundry from the washer to the dryer, and found some money. I thought I had checked all the pockets of his pants, but apparently not. The more laundry I pulled out, the more cash kept showing up. Money in the wash isn't a big deal of course, you just let it dry, then it's good to go. BUT... there at the bottom of the washer was a memory card that Johnny uses in his "deer camera" (he puts it on trees in his hunting spots and then checks it to see how many deer are in the area...whole other story...) that was apparently in his pocket too. Oops!
So it was just one thing after another yesterday...silly mostly...but we just kept looking at each other like, "are you kidding me?!"
