APRIL HAPPENINGS PART 2

Gotta love the toothless smile of a six year old. Now if that tooth fairy would just get her act together, we'd be all set. Sometimes it takes her until the second night to remember to come to our house! I always feel bad when one of the kids tell me, "Mom the tooth fairy didn't come last night." And I'm sorry to say that this has happened more than once. However, I see the opportunity to teach the kids about having patience and the tooth fairy will most likely come tonight, lol.






















Stella has a favorite blanket. She sleeps with it, carries it around and we take it everywhere we go. We have two of the same so I can wash the one not in use.



Now if you look closely at the two pictures, the one on the bottom is her blankie. The picture on the top, where yes, she is giving me a dirty look, she has several expressions now where she manipulates her eyebrows, anyways this is her pseudo blankie, a.k.a. Jason's long johns. If you look at the picture you can see the arms and the tag. We have found this to be so funny because if she can't find her blanket, she knows what drawer to go to to find long johns. They are the same color, same material, same texture. Actually, if Stella sees Jason wearing these she will get upset thinking he has her blanket on and tries to grab them!























One more note, check this out to read the very inspiring story of the winner chosen by Amy Wenzel for the photography workshop I blogged about in March, WOW:)

APRIL HAPPENINGS PART 1

This month is almost over, I don't know where it went. I've realized there is only about two more months until the baby arrives so I have been busy. Savanah and Preston are in full force with baseball, track and softball. This is the first year Savanah has not been dancing but with those muscles she has developed, she won't have any difficulty playing sports.

Here are some photos of Stella's first bike riding experience.
