FiNaLLY!....

Ok, finally she has lost her top two teeth!! She is in 2nd grade, 7 yr old, she lost her bottom two like two years ago so this has been a long time coming! They didn't look like the rest of her teeth because they were loose for so long, so the first one came out about 4-5 days ago and then last night the other one came out! woohoo! Her new teeth are already pushing through, and she talks with a "th th" sound, aha!! Hooray for the Lilybug losing her teeth!

PreschooL!

Today was Piper's 1st day of preschool! Hooray! I can't believe she'll be in kindergarten next year! She has been waiting and waiting to start since they started after regular school did so she was super happy today was finally HER day! They are doing colors this month each time they go, so today on her 1st day she had to wear RED! I was a little nervous because she had a hard time with swim lessons and gymnastics this summer and decided last minute she didn't want to do them, so I was afraid this would be the same outcome. But NO! She jumped out of the car and said, "BYE"..and I was like, WAIT..I can walk you to the door on the first day, haha, and once we got in she was so OK it wasn't even funny, she was ready and excited. So hooray! I think she'll do quite well in ABC Ranch Preschool and hopefully it will teach her to "listen" a little better, heehee. Love that Piperoni...

18 mo..going on 3yr!

Ok, Belle is 18 mo old, does she even look like it? I swear she looks older, maybe it's all the hair, or the silly faces, or the constant chatter and words, or the extreme case of "copy cat" she has...she is just growing so fast! We don't go in for her Well Baby check up and shots til the 22nd, but I just had to share some pics of this big girl. She's a total sweet heart, very in tune with emotions, she really should be an actress because she knows how to do every emotion so well..lol! She loves to do everything her big sisters do, she loves to color and be outside and she's a great dancer! This girl knows how to shake it! Poor girl gets mauled to death by Piper and she's learned to say, "Pipey!!!" to get her away, and unfortunately it makes her SQUEAL..so really need to reform Piper in bugging Belle to DEATH! Other than that she is so goofy and fun and goes down for naps and bed easily (thank you heaven above..), but she is also our "barnacle" baby, my "koala", so I'm a tad nervous about bringing a new, needy newborn into our family when Belle is very attached on my hip, we shall see...we sure do love this little "bitty" (as teddy calls her) and all her very friendly waves and blowing kisses constantly...maybe potty training won't be too far off!! let's cross our fingers..until then she'll be our comic relief and our affectionate sweetie...
