Tooth Fairy Confusion



The tooth fairy seems to be a big part of our lives these days, that's why she always seems to make it on the blog. Macy has watched her sister lose 4 teeth in the past little bit and is very jealous. She constantly tries to wiggle her teeth and tell me that they're "growing up".

Macy was fortunate enough to have the muscle that connects your upper lip to your teeth wrap around in between her two front teeth, she had to get it cut. Actually, she didn't have to have it cut. If she didn't, she would always have a huge space in between her two front teeth. I didn't want her to look like Madonna, so I made the decision to have her snipped.

We explained to her what was going to happen and she got a huge smile and said "And the Tooth Fairy's going to come?" She came up with a great idea, of course the tooth fairy would come for that.

After torturing her at the dentist and my mom having to babysit her all day, she wrote a note to the tooth fairy and put it under her pillow.

4:30 a.m. Macy is upset and crying in our room, I take her back to her room and she shows me around the room and says "See, there's no tooth fairy in here!" "and my tooth is still in my mouth. See?" I had to explain that the tooth fairy doesn't stay in your room, or take teeth out of your mouth while your sleeping. She just leaves something under your pillow. At that point she discovered the dollar and went running through the house sooooo excited and woke up Kurt to show him. I had to keep her from waking up Raegan. After that, she didn't go back too sleep, she was just too excited to head to the dollar store the next day. We were all tired.

Going Back to Preschool

I feel so lucky to be teaching preschool right now. I was able to take over one of the classes at the preschool I wanted to teach at and I'm loving it!!! At first when I got the call I was apprehensive about putting myself over the edge adding one more thing to my already busy life, but so far I'm glad that I did it. I'm really enjoying being with the kids, and the time flies by.
So I guess that I'm now offically working 3 jobs and being a mom! Along with teaching I still make bows for Baby Bling and of course take pictures. I love all my jobs, but I know that I'm going to have to let other parts of my life go for a bit while I do this, my house may not get as clean as I like, my girls hair won't be quite as cute as I like it, my laundry may not always be done....but all in all I think it will be worth it as long as I can keep my sanity.

Goodbye Fall

Halloween 2009

All for One and One for All!!!!
I heard this phrase over and over this Halloween season. At the beginning of the month Kenlie called and asked Raegan if she and Mallory would like to be the three Musketeers for Halloween, all thanks to the new Barbie movie that just came out. We couldn't resist that offer! Then the younger three: Macy, Afton, and Lily didn't want to be left out of the game so they became the three Musketeers as well! 6 of the cutest Musketeers there ever was!

In order to make them darling, the moms, Kristin, Casi and I went together to buy all the materials and pattern for their costumes. Thank goodness we all have mothers and mother-in-laws that are fantastic sewers and help us all whip up these darling dresses with capes. My mother-in-law helped me, okay, let's be honest, she practically made mine for me since I decided to get sick and wasn't there to help her for a couple days. But didn't she do a great job? I just loved their costumes when we finished them.

The girls all went trick-or-treating together this year as well because we all know that the 3, oh, I mean 6, Musketeers can't be apart.

There were soooo many cute pictures that showed these cute girls personalities. I'm going to have to post more on my photography blog (when I get the chance).
