We will have to see!

Well, the other night I had gotten dinner ready and on the table. We all prayed and David and the girls began to eat as I was up and down, eating in between pulling the cookies out of the oven and placing them on a cooling rack.

After David and the girls got done eating, David took Amy to wash her hands. Emily was still at the table and looked over at me as I began to wash my hands at the kitchen sink and she said "Mommy, you haven't finished the food on your plate are you going to finish eating?" I looked at her and said "well sometimes Mommy's have to do things in between eating and as soon as I get a chance to finish I will." And then I said "When you become a Mommy you will see." Emily then replied, "I am not going to be up and down, I am going to eat while it is hot."

Emily Lost It Today,

her first tooth that is! It has been an exciting day as it started with spending the afternoon with her cousins Annie and Alexis when this historical event happened.

David had just returned home from picking up pizza and it was the first bite that would forever change her life. She felt something hard and spit it out only to see that the fear she has had for the last few days didn't exactly play out like she had pictured in her mind. She was so scared that she was going to swallow her tooth, which I can remember as a child thinking the same thing. As you can see she overcame her fear of swallowing her tooth today! She is so excited and is feeling so grown up!

Well, Amy

had her first day of pre-k3 yesterday and loves it already! I stayed awhile and then went to go to meet Emily for mass.

I am so proud of my girls and they are growing up so fast. Emily is now beginning to have homework that needs to be turned in on Tuesdays and Thursdays which I know will not be a problem because she loves to do homework.

The girls started Kiz Choir and Awana's yesterday and loved it. Emily started Sparks and Amy started Cubbies. They are both excited and have begun memorizing scriptures. We are use to doing Awana's on Sundays but wanted the weekends for us to spend as a family so we decided to take them on Wednesday's. Wednesday's are very busy for us but it makes me proud to see the girls learning more and more about God, faith and love!

A few more Changes

Well, the girls have been sick, Amy more than Emily. We took them Saturday morning to the doctor to find that Amy has an ear infection (which we didn't realize), cough, low grade fever and cold symptoms. Emily just has a little cold that she has been fighting for over a week so they are both on antibiotics and doing much, much better.

Emily is loving school and has been learning so much. She has come home with smiley faces on her folder for the past two weeks which then allows her to pick treasures from the teaches treasure box and I must say she is all about prizes.

Amy will be starting her pre-k3 program on Wednesday and she is so excited to go to sisters old school. We have orientation tomorrow morning so Amy will get to meet the new students in her class.

As for me I am so excited because I will have a few hours to myself during the weeks to come. I will be working out, resting, having breakfast with friends & family, shopping, etc. I am excited about the new journey I am entering but a little melancholy as I am realizing that my girls are growing up.
