We got back from Club Med Cancun on Sunday - our second Club Med gathering with Pam's family. What a blast - we all had the best time having spent our days between ocean and pool, sailboats and trapezes, wonderful food, and two amazing performances by the kids - one production of Peter Pan, and one magic show. More to come on that along with pictures.

Pam took the kids to the dentist yesterday. The good news: no cavaties. The bad news: Rowan is missing two adult teeth, the ones that would be on either side of her two front teeth. Consequently, the next two teeth are sort of coming in diagonally at an angle toward the middle. This is not good. Pam set up an orthodontist appointment to see what measures can be taken - perhaps surgery, we don't really know. Whatever it is sounds extremely expensive and likely painful. Oh - and they said it was hereditary, so I need to speak to Mom and Dad about that.

This morning, Griffin and I watched "How it Works" on the Discovery Channel and learned how they make silver miniature items. Griffin wants to do it now so evidently I'm going to need a lathe, a soldering iron, and a whole workbench full of silver-smithing tools.
