Dylan loses or has his first tooth pulled!

On Monday, February 10, 2014, Julie told me to look at Dylan's tooth on the bottom, I looked in his mouth and asked him to show me his loose tooth, he pointed to the bottom tooth and I see a permanent tooth coming up behind it.  Julie said she was going to call the dentist.  It was a snow day so the kids did not have school.  We had an appointment at 3:15.  Dr. Pat Murphy looks in his mouth and told Dylan that his permanent tooth did not do its job and that is push the baby tooth out of his mouth.  So after some talking it was decided that Dr. Pat would pull his tooth, which he did, after some screaming and tears.  He did not put his tooth under his pillow last night because he wanted to save it and take it to school on Friday for show and tell.  He is too funny.

Our beautiful Sissy turns 7

Our beautiful Sissy turns 7 on February 13th, Sissy is a middle child and of all 5 grandchildren, she was the easiest baby.  The other 4 grandchildren don't like to hear me say that but it is the truth.  She is so laid back and quiet.  But she is a riot too.  I took her out for her birthday shopping.  On this early Saturday morning, it started with going to a 9am basketball game that Leah was playing.  Sissy and Charlie were there with their dad.  I gave each of the kids $1 to spend at the concession stand.  Sissy and Charlie bought kit kats.  When the game was over and Sissy and I were about to leave, she said I have to go to the bathroom, she ran around the basketball court to the restroom.  About 4 minutes later I see Sissy come out of the restroom running around the court with a long stream of toilet paper flowing from her mouth.  I am looking confused at her when she comes up to me and ask, what is the problem.  She said she bit down on the kit kat and her front tooth fell out.  That was the start of our shopping trip.  From there we went to Toys R Us where we were successful in buying 3 special gifts.  An Aurora doll, Aurora's puppy and a Barbie head that she can style.  As we were leaving Toys R Us I asked Sissy where she wanted to go to lunch, she said Steak and Shake.  We proceeded to Steak and Shake and ordered our food.  Sissy had to go to the bathroom and when she returned, she said her stomach didn't feel good and she needed to go home.  We packed up or food and went home.  I hated that our day ended on that note but we did get her birthday present. I sure do love this beautiful blue eyed girl.

Sissy being a riot.  She was supposed to be eating the curly fries but found another use for them.

Kylie and Leah spending the night at Grandma and PawPaw's house

We had our first Disney Family Meeting Saturday, January 20, 2014 for our trip coming up, thank you Brian for all your help in preparing for the trip.  We all met, had lunch and then started making reservations for things we want to do.  Leah and Kylie said they wanted to spend the night so after everyone else left, we went to 4:30 mass and then out to eat.  Leah suggested a Chinese Buffet, she talked Kylie into agreeing on going, so that is where we ended up and the first picture is them pigging out.  Then they wanted a spa treatment, Kylie brought a mud mask, so they put on swimsuits and put on the mud mask.  They just had a ball and stayed in the water til it turned cold.  After that they went to their room and watched kids shows.  In the morning they both ordered eggs and french toast sticks, the little princesses got their wish.  It was a great time.  We really enjoy our time with our Grand kids and hope they will be able to look back on these memories and think they are as special as we do.

Leah our star athlete turns 10

Leah is our super athlete, she plays all sports and puts 110% in everyone of them.  We love to watch her play soccer the most.  She is excellent.  Leah is super sensitive and wants to be everyone's friend.  I had so much fun shopping with Leah for her birthday, she wanted to go to Claire's, which we did and she picked out over 20 pairs of ear rings and other fun things.  We completed her shopping in less than 30 minutes.  From there we went to her favorite eating place, Chinese buffets. It is so much fun shopping with the kids for their birthday presents.  I love you Leah more than you will ever know.

Another GREAT Christmas 2013

Our tradition is the Friday after Thanksgiving, everyone comes to our house and the grandkids decorate our tree for us.  They take turns putting the angel on top of the tree and I take a picture of it so we remember who did it the previous year, this prevents fights.  Also, Brian and Mary bring all the leftovers for another Turkey dinner, it is great.  The second picture is when they are done decorating.

Christmas day starts around 11am at our house when the kids start coming.  The first thing we do is take some family pictures and we threaten the kids to smile nice or no presents.  We had a great Christmas as you can see with all our pictures.  We are all so blessed.

 

Dylan turns 7

Dylan turned 7 on November 30, 2013.  I took him shopping for his birthday gifts about 2-3 weeks before his birthday.  We went to Toys R Us and he picked out legos and a trash truck, he loves trash trucks for some reason.  Dylan is very much a boy but he still likes to cuddle and will come up and hug you when you least expect it and tell you how much he loves you.  He loves the women in his life.  He will break a lot of hearts because he is such a lover.  Dylan may take a lot of time to convince him of things and teaching him things but he is well worth the extra time.  I love him so much.  He is my Boo.
