It finally happened we had a Perriton girls trip. I have been waiting for this day for 10 years. We have been missing out. It was a blast. We ate, played and talked. Highlights of the trip were as follows being extremely frightened of a moose we came across, finding out Summer is afraid of chipmunks, the play we went to, food, more food, hot tub, and being with family. I feel so blessed to call these girls my sisters. They have been nothing but kind and excepting to me. We missed all those who didn't come. Next time ladies!
Our tiny tornado really shocked me and took the dentist very serious. The first and only time I have seen her calm and obedient since she learned to walk. It's a miracle!!! She loved the toothpaste and I figured out why half way through. All kids have a sweet tooth. This little girl is clearly addicted. Anything sweet she calls Gummy. If she says any "gummy" it will ALWAYS result in a tantrum. Her brain gets focused on that and there is no distracting. She kept asked them for "more gummy please". She even wants it in tooth paste form.
Layla and I have NO idea how this happened. Our guess is over time her earring just slid right out splitting her ear lobe in two. Yup! Poor girl. If your going to have your earring ripped out this strategy seems to be the least painful. Since it healed as it slid out we had to see a plastic surgeon. 9 stitches later she should heal and be back to normal in no time.
Safe to say we were non-stop sick from Christmas on through April. I had a never ended sinus infection that wasn't responding to ANYTHING, Londyn had ear infection after ear infection on top of Pnomonia. Liam decided to join in on the fun and also had Pnomonia. That's how we roll around here when we have a lot on our plate. It feels like topping it off with illness really seals the deal so life can push you over the edge: But... We survived and are now feeling much better and I found the cure to my sinus infection!
Yup the new Aquarium opened and there are sharks! Liam had a field trip and couldn't believe his eyes. He was a little disappointed to find out they didn't have any Great White Sharks but I was fine with that :)
My besties (Erin, Brooke and my Mom) and I thought it would be fun to take the kiddos on an adventure this Spring break. It was fun and we found tons of topaz. I decided if I am going to get out of the house with my kids and not feel crazy from chasing Londyn around my best bet is to take them to the middle of no where with no other people around except those who I can trust won't judge. It was very relaxing! Yup believe it or not I left the house with all three kids all day and it was relaxing!
He is my best friend and has a passion for The Muppets which is totally understandable because they are AWESOME! So we treated him to in my oponion the best movie of the year.
And things like these are why I think The Muppets are hilarious!
Sometimes I forget how sweet and innocent my children can be (like when they are fighting or throwing tantrums). These are some of those moments. Love them.
As usual, the Leperchaun got away. The note mentioned we caught him but he called the tooth fairy to come and help escape! Layla as usual was obsessed with the idea of a little green man. He tricked us by sticking underwear on everyone's head. That little stinker.
Liam made his Mom and aunties proud on the court and was quite the little basketball player. Baseball is not looking as promising. At least we are narrowing down which sports to peruse. My favorite moment of his basketball season is when all the first grade boys line up at the free throw line and they would bounce pass it to them and the little boy would shoot. Liam was towards the end of the line. When they bounced him the ball he quickly dribbled it while spinning around grabbed it and woosh! He had the teenage helper boy laughing. My little globe trotter!
