Another one gone!!

Last night I was at Young Women's and when I came home, I hear Makenna crying upstairs, so when I go up, Matt is sitting there telling her that he needs to pull the tooth out.
I guess what happened was that they were playing around and Matt's elbow hit Makenna in the mouth and she ran to the bathroom and her front tooth was hanging there by a thread. It was already loose, but it must have just hit it to loosen it just so.
Makenna kept saying that she just wanted to wait till tomorrow and hopefully it would fall out throughout the day, but it was so close, all he had to do was pull down on it and it would've been out.
After much coaching and hand holding, she finally let Matt pull it down, and now she is missing both her front teeth. I know that Christmas is still a couple months away, but I started singing, "All I want for Christmas is my 2 front teeth." Makenna thought it was funny and started singing right along with me!!

WITcheS!!!

On Friday, I went to Gardner Village to see the witches with my mom, and sisters. Makenna was in school, so I told her we'd go back so that she can see them too. I love HALLOWEEN as most everybody knows!!! This is just the start of my Halloween fun.



Hannah didn't want to sit by the witches, so I had her sit by some pumpkins....


Maybe this is why Hannah didn't want to sit by them...

I'm so mean!!! I just laughed at her while she was crying and scared!! It's Okay, though, she knows I love her, right?!!?

Hannah's Party...

So I know this is really late getting up, but my camera batteries have been dead and I just kept forgetting to buy some new ones. Anyway Hannah had a Tinkerbell birthday party on the 12th and had some of her little friends come over and celebrate with her.

When they first got here, we put pixie dust on the girls and had them start by playing "pin the star on tinkerbell's wand." My brother in law, Tyler, drew an awesome picture of tinkerbell for us to use for this game...




After that, we played "pass Tinkerbells wand" and had music going as we passed a wand in the circle, when the music stopped whoever was holding the wand was out and got to keep the wand, we continued playing until there was only one person left...




After the game all the girls took their wands and danced to the tinkerbell music we had playing...




We had a Tinkerbell pinata..




And Finally we had cupcakes and Icecream and had Hannah open her presents....







She had such a fun time with her friends and really loved having a Tinkerbell Party!!!

Happy Birthday Hannah!!!

Tues, the 8th was Hannah's 4th Birthday. She went to school that day, and was the VIP. She got a crown and handed out cupcakes to her class to celebrate with her.

Later that day we went out to dinner. She wanted cheese pizza, so we went to rock creek pizza, they have the dinner buffet, so the kids ate cheese pizza, and we still got the good stuff.

For her birthday she got a "tinker bell bed" (which is just the tinkerbell sheets, but she always calls it a bed), and a tinkerbell nightgown. My mom and Matt's parents met us for dinner, and she got a huge thing a polly pockets and 2 dresses from my parents and a webkinz, along with 5 dollars from Matt's parents. She was so happy with all of her gifts. She loved everything.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HANNAH, WE LOVE YOU!!!




Just some quick thoughts and things about Hannah:
*She LOVES tinkerbell right now. She is having a tinkerbell party and loves anything tinkerbell.

*Lately she had gotten really funny to me, whenever I want to take a picture, she pulls a funny face and twists her face up and makes her eyes all cross eyed.

*She gives the biggest hugs, and she is so sweet.

*She does have tendancies to scream and freak out and the tiniest thing. If water spills on her she screams and you can't calm her down for the longest time. She needs to learn to "use her words" better.

*She is still so little at 4 years old. Yesterday I went and took her in for her yearly check up. She is still only 28 pounds, and 37" tall. She is in the 3rd percentile. I just think it's funny that she still can't sit in a booster cause she is not 30 lbs. yet.

*She still doesn't have a whole lot of hair. Her hair is the same length as Alexa's who is 2, and I still have never cut her hair.

* We all love Hannah so much, she is so sweet and loving and growing up so fast!!!

Snowbird 2009

Last week was our annual family trip to Snowbird. We had lots of fun hangin' out and playin' with cousins, and my sisters.

We had lots of fun crafts that we did, we did sand art, painted sun catchers, and they made their own water bracelts and necklaces...




Every day we went swimming at least once, but most of the time we would go in the morning and then eat lunch and go back in the afternoon, the kids loved it, I think it is their favorite part about snowbird...





This year we decided to do something a little different, so on Thursday we went down the canyon and went to the Sweets Factory, where we got a tour of the factory, and saw how they make all the YUMMY Candy!!! After the tour was done we got each the kids their own Sweets Beach Ball, along with some taffy and of course, Chocolate covered Cinammon bears!! YUM, YUM!!!





On Friday, we went to the snowbird center and let the kids jump on the blow up slide...





Makenna and Hannah had fun on that, while Alexa zonked out from not getting a nap all week....



And of course we went to the playground and had them get out their energy on the slides, monkey bars, and swings.
`








We had so much fun. It is always fun to get away from everyday life and just relax and take it easy for a week. I was ready to come home and sleep in my own bed, but I wasn't exctited for the 10 loads of laundry I had to make up for not doing for a whole week!!

Makenna lost another tooth...

Last week while we were at Snowbird, the kids were all in one room watching a movie, and the adults were in the another room talking, when all of the sudden someone comes in to me and start yelling that Makenna't tooth came out.

So I go into the next room, and Makenna is just sitting there smiling, holding her tooth and a bloody tissue. She was so happy that it had come out. And actually what really ended up happening was my niece, Lily wanted to feel it, so as she was feeling it she just decided to pop it out. Lily said that she wants to be a dentist. It was funny.

I don't know why, but with that tooth gone, Makenna looks older to me for some reason. She it getting in that weird stage where some teeth are missing and bigger than others, and it just makes her seem and look so much older to me than just even a week ago. We were also happy that the tooth fairy knew that we were at Snowbird and was able to find us and leave Makenna a dollar under her pillow.
