Bowling and Teething

I think its official, we are on the last molar. Now I know they get some as the years go on but she is a late teether (she is almost three and getting her last one) so it won't be for a while. Therefore, I have to believe that my post from a few days ago Take a Deep Breath Everyone, JUST TAKE A DEEP BREA... was rooted in her teeth. We had a good morning yesterday and then, well, bowling was not so successful. Poor girl. She doesn't do that great with lots of lights and sound and people anyway. Top that with having been at church, going out to lunch (I'm surprised she napped ok) and then going out to dinner and then bowling in a bright, obnoxiously loud place that was totally new, well, we really were just asking for trouble. Oh and the molars, don't forget the molars. I won't go into all the craziness or the fact that R and I were warding off meltdowns literally every five minutes but will just try and highlight some of the fun.

We got the bumpers put up of course and B getting the ball down the lane only took about eight minutes before it lightly bumped some pins and maybe knocked a few over. She of course wanted to run after her ball down the lane and was a little sad when she couldn't. We bowled with another couple from church that has a little girl one day younger than B. It took the 6 of us 2 hours to play one game and that was with the guys hurrying up and playing for the girls at the end. Wow. So here's a little picture run down of the evening. It was fun to do a "first" in bowling.

She much preferred this machine to actual bowling.

Giving it a go with Daddy.

These activities were much more entertaining for her.

Here they Come......And there they Go.

Lucky Guy! He's got two blonde's in the bowling alley!

And why would her socks be dirty? Because they don't have bowling shoes in her size. Disgusting but Oh Well!
