BIG News!!!

Nathan lost his first tooth tonight!!! After being whacked in the nose with the rinsing cup in the bathtub we did a tooth check. I really thought his loose tooth might have been knocked out from the whacking in the tub, but no it was just barely hanging on. I tried to get him to yank it out, but that was a no go. So mom to the rescue. I yanked it out and we did the tooth dance!! He is very excited and could hardly stop smiling tonight before he went to sleep. He is very eager to get to school tomorrow and show his friends.

We Have MOVED!!!

We have been in our new house for 2 weeks now and we are loving it!! After a crazy time getting to the closing table, we hurriedly got one set of contractors in to scrape and re-texture the ceilings and and then another set of contractors in to paint from head to toe. Then we hurriedly moved in our stuff. The painters were still painting as we were walking in with boxes and furniture. It was a hard moving weekend and week to follow, but we are starting to come out of the moving fog. All the boxes in the house are empty, but we have a garage full of boxes to go through and clean out.

The kids are having such a great time. They each got to pick the paint color for their rooms. Nathan's room is blue and Abby's is pink. Do they fit the typical sterotypes or what!?!

This weekend we have been recovering from the severe storms we had here last week. We lost a tree in our backyard and some shingles off the roof. Great welcome to the neighborhood.:-)

Fun times with the chainsaw!
