sticker face

too bad this picture came out so blurry- one night sophie decided to decorate herself with stickers

and if you look at her swollen gums you can see why she was up in the middle of the night- these teeth have been killers coming in

the tooth fairy visits

abbie's tooth started wiggling on wednesday and she woke up saturday morning asking for an apple so she could bite into it for the tooth to come out. well i just thought that she would take a gentle bite and nothing would happen- well that is not the case. she took a giant bite right in the front where her wiggly tooth was- and you guessed it- it popped right out!
here she is with the apple


sophie's new squinty face smile
aunt ginny came over with a dollar to help the tooth fairy out
and here it is

the jack-o-lantern grin
tooth fairy treasures- a gold dollar and a regular dollar
molly's excited too and ready for one of her teeth to come out!

eat your vegetables

since abbie has been diagnosed with diabetes we have changed our family's diet to include more vegetables and less carbs. grandma has become very creative in her presentation of veggies to get the girls to eat them. here is abbie's veggie burger.


and she proudly shows off her first loose tooth- complete with her first grade sticker on her shirt.

fun

the girls spending some time together


goggles are worn just about everywhere

abbie's second day of first grade

and i couldn't resist adding a picture of abbie in her jumper on the second day


molly missed being in the picture as she was still sleeping but sophie was very excited to have some time alone with big sister abbie as she absolutely adores her

abbie's first day of first grade

abbie was so excited to start school again this year- she had a calendar and marked each day with a big X on her countdown to the big day.
this year she decided to wear a skort instead of her jumper

molly wished she could go to school with abbie
and of course sophie had to get in on the action too...
abbie came home smiling and has been smiling eveyr day since- she just loves school!

dinosaur on my finger

sophie kept putting this dinosaur on her finger and thought it was so great that it just hung on by itself

okay now she wants it off- check out this expression!

okay she really wants it off now!
