toothless

after many hours of agonizing over her loose bloody tooth, sadie managed to get it out. now she can't stop smiling.

gemma

I took the afternoon off yesterday to spend with gemma. It reminded me of the days when my mom would take my sister and I shopping and out to eat. I loved those time even though at the time they weren't the most exciting...

I picked her up from school--she has 2 days left now. we went to Olive Garden for lunch followed by shopping at Ross (her favorite store), and then to get her hair cut and styled. she has such poofy thick hair--not sure where that comes from--and we don't get her regular cuts as it is just not a priority. gemma is such a extraordinar girl--but thinks she is average AT EVERYTHING--if only she could see herself as I do. today was her birthday party--she had 3 boys and 8 girls over. they had so much fun--it was fun to watch the interactions of them all- one of the boys who has a big crush on gemma bought her the dress she was wearing in the picture. --wow --the times have changed since i was 13:)

Happy Birthday Laken!!

We had an excellent day today--I'm so glad I took today off to spend with Laken on his 4th birthday--although I don't think he fully realized it is his birthday as his party is saturday. I took the kids swimming at juniper swim and fitness--we haven't been there in soooo long.
Mcdonalds was next on the agenda. It was so unbelievably nice to spend all day with my kids and not working.
We watched the Toothfairy tonight --what a wonderful day

have you ever rented a movie you don't think you've seen and halfway through you realize you've wasted 1 hour of your life watching the same bad movie you seen before? welcome to my friday night

I have been crazy luck lately. I happened to call a radio station and win tickets to see sex and the city 2 and go to a fashion show. the other day I entered online to win tickets to the portland rose festival which included travel there, hotel, dinner...ect....but I put my home phone number with my entry. needless to say I was at work when they called--but I have never won so many things in my life... not complaining--just wish I could use some of my winnings

sadie graduated from preschool last night, and will start kindergarten this fall. I can't believe how fast time has gone by--only 4 years ago I was at brecken's graduation. we applied to put sadie in a program at school that combine spanish speaking students with the english speaking ones. it will be an all day kindergarten and I worry that will be too much for her.
