Finally the tooth is gone...

Londyn's front tooth got loose way back in October and we just kept thinking it was going to fall out. We went to the dentist in November and he even said he thought the Tooth Fairy would visit before Santa but nope...still no Tooth Fairy. One month, then two and next thing you know 4 months had gone by and still the tooth was holding on strong! Finally, with Daddy's help the tooth got pulled!
Londyn's tooth that was hanging on for dear life! 
She could push her tooth out over her bottom lip to give the appearance of a "redneck smile"

And it's gone!!

Unfortunately the tooth got dropped but with the help of the Tooth Fairies magical fairy dust, she got the tooth and left some money.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Every year Matt tries to find a way to make Valentine's Day special for me and what better way than a home made craft. He puts a lot of thought into them and takes the time to make something so nice for me. They are things I will cherish forever! This year has a particularly funny story to go along with the craft. Apparently Matt had found a "flower" craft but hadn't found the time to make it and Valentine's Day was fast approaching. So he told that me he needed to go to the bathroom, in the mean time, Brooklyn was covering herself from head to toe with a melted Creamie. The time finally comes when Brooklyn is in desperate need of a bath but Matt is still in the bathroom. I proceed to ask if he needs a magazine?? Is he almost done?? What's taking so long?? Basically I keep bugging him to get it done and get out so I can put Brooklyn in the bath. Well, Monday morning when I got to work there were 3 cards (one from Matt and 2 from the girls) and these darling crafts, made in the bathroom. Who says men can't multi-task!

Thanks Matt! These are great! I love you so much!!
I was hoping to have a special dinner made and surprise their girls with their Valentine's but poor Londyn ended up getting really sick so she didn't get to enjoy hers for several days. 

Showing off their fun "Love Bugs"
I would like to thank Grandma and PaPa for always sending the kids such cute Valentine's in the mail. They just love to get mail and it's even better coming from the greatest Grandparents ever! We all love you very much!

Silliness...

With every passing day I get the chance to really get a glimpse at how silly Brooklyn is. Although she is only 2 her personality shines. She loves to giggle and that giggle is contagious! Next thing I know Londyn is right there with her giggling too. It's music to a mother's ears. Here are a few shots that capture how much fun Boo has in front of the camera so you can imagine how much fun she has behind it as well. We are so thankful to have this little blessing in our home, she brings so many laughs to us all. 
For some reason Brooklyn loves to wear this hat.
And here is her silly face

Brooklyn saw Londyn going cross-eyed and she wanted to try.

What silly girls!!
