Ally is wicked excited that I have gone back to work. She is sooooo happy to be with Grammy and Grampa all day. I am glad she enjoys them so much, and I am so happy we had a wonderful summer together. It was our best summer yet (not hard to beat the past two anyway).

So...Ally's oncologist is very much for getting Ally's teeth capped. We are willing to go through with this plan, but we were not happy with the first dentist (as I posted before), so we got ourselves a second opinion. Daddy brought Ally to the dentist on Tuesday (his day off from working the weekend) and it was wonderful. They were very nice, they complimented Ally, they empathized with our situation, and fully understood it was not our fault. YEAH!!!! So, here is the rub. We have to wait for an estimate for this second place, to see if it is comparable to the first dentist. (Health Insurance does not cover teeth, we already checked into this, they will however cover the anesthesia and the room, just not the dental work.) The estimating lady at the nice, new dentist had a couple questions about the notes the nice, new dentist took, so we have to wait until next week to get the quote, and see if this dentist (a private practice) is in the same ballpark as the evil dentist.....hopefully they are, so we don't have to go back to them. I will let you know when we have decided what to do!

PS: Starting school on 2 of the hottest days of the summer is NOT a fun way to begin a new school year! But I do enjoy being around other adults!
