Who's coming to visit?

Well it looks like the tooth fairy will be making a visit to our house tonight. Marissa finally lost one of her front teeth. It has been dangling for about a week now and she wouldn't let anyone pull it for her. By the way, what are you suppose to say when your child asks you.....what does the tooth fairy look like and how does "she" come into our house and why does she collect teeth and how big is she? I was trying to use my imagination to answer her questions. Hopefully i will remember what i said for when the next kid looses a tooth and ask the same questions.

This year for Mother's Day, my mom made me an album of all of my baby pictures along with my school pictures. Thanks mom for making the album, it is one of my favorite gifts! I know that my family has enjoyed looking through the book and laughing at some of my dated outfits and hair styles.

Marissa hasn't had her school pictures taken yet, which made me wonder what my 2nd grade picture looked like. So since i had my book i decided to see which teeth i was missing for my pictures. So yes....the girl on the left is me the same age as Marissa now.

It was so much fun to see your school pictures and see the similarities between you then and the girls now! And just for the record, we were laughing WITH you, not AT you....

Very cute! How great that you have those pictures to compare at that age. You are brave to show them because I would not even dare to pull out my toothless grin photos!

Hey Marissa! I'm so glad that thing came out! I don't think I could look at that oogie wiggle again next week! Looks like you are just as cute as your mama was when she was a little girl. :) Mrs. McCashen

I never realized how much Marissa favors you. Still favors Jeremy more, but you do look similar in these photos. Did the tooth fairy leave fairy dust in the girls bedroom?

From our home to yours....

Welcome to our home at Christmas. When I heard that Boomama was going to be having a Christmas Tour of Homes , I thought that sounded like so much fun because so many of our family and friends aren't able to make it out to visit us during the Christmas season. So here are a few pictures of our home decorated for Christmas. As you walk in our front door we have this little tree sitting in our entry way As you can see I really like snowman! This is leading into the family room... This tree is in our family room and it is decorated with all of our family ornaments. Each year we buy the girls an ornament that represents something from the year for that child. It is a tradition that I have continued from my childhood. My favorite ornaments are the ones that are homemade by the girls! This is our big tree that is more formally decorated and is in our living room. This is our third year with an artificial tree which is definitely less messy but we have had lots of fun with the pre-lite l
