Harper loses a tooth!

Harper's bottom two front teeth have been a little wiggly for a while. Recently, one started to get very wiggly. She complained that wiggling it hurt, so we didn't mess with it too much, but I would check it every once in a while. on November 5, it was loose enough, that I told her I thought I could get it out if she wanted. she decided it was time, but she asked for Tannah to hold her hand while I pulled it. A push back and a pull forward, and it was out:).



She was so excited to leave her tooth for the Tooth Fairy.





Tannah asked no less than five times if the Tooth Fairy was going to leave her a note as well. She also immediately started wiggling her top teeth:)

Harper was very excited to find her sparkly note and 5 dollars in the morning.

Five Years and Seven Months

I'm amazed by how busy our lives our with two Kindergarteners and two full time working parents. I know it's only going to get worse. It's busy but fun.


At 5 years and 7 months:
  • The girls love drawing, coloring, and arts and crafts.
  • They love playing outside and jumping on our neighbors' trampoline.
  • Harper's favorite food is macaroni and cheese, and Tannah's is hot dogs.
  • They love Wild Kratts and Elena of Avalor.
  • Harper lost her first tooth! Tannah has lost two teeth.
  • The girls wear size 6 clothes and size 12 shoes.
  • Their little personalities are so different. It's funny to see how different two children born on the same day and raised in the same family can be:).
  • They love playing together, but they also often can't keep their hands off each other, so someone gets hurt frequently.
  • They love riding the bus, computers, and art class at school.
  • Every morning, I open the door to whichever room they're sleeping in and turn on the hall light. They get dressed, brush their teeth their hair, and come into our bedroom. It's nice not having to do quite as much to get them ready in the mornings anymore.
This age is so much fun. They're very independent and have lots of opinions.

Carving Pumpkins

The girls were so excited to carve pumpkins this year. They each picked out a pattern and actually did some of the prep work/cutting this year. And they both scooped out the insides.






We roasted the pumpkin seeds!





Harper's bat.


Tannah's boo.


We only got a few pumpkins this year:)

Wei-Yand's sister and her kids came to visit us last weekend, so we took everyone to the pumpkin patch. We all had a blast.

Halloween Event

We went to my sister's house a couple weeks ago for a community Halloween event. The girls were excited to wear their skeleton PJ's with their cousins.


Shimmer and Shine!!












It was a really nice event. There were face painters.


Balloon artists.


And Harper really wanted her picture taken with this Dracula:).


 My mom made costumes for all of the kids, and they all coordinated this year.


So much love!
