The Stepstool

Remember this post ? this was in 2008 when she painted this stool so she could use it to reach the sink. Here she is now on the stool, she hardly needs it now. I don't always notice how fast she's growing up until I look at stuff like this.

The Tooth Fairy

Lauren lost her first tooth today and she got a bonus deal of 2 teeth at once :) She lost 2 bottom teeth at school sometime today, they gave her a little card with her teeth attached to it. The tooth fairy comes tonight for the very first time.

Weaving

We were at a craft store the other day and they had a Weaving craft on clearance for $5.00 so I thought what the heck, we'll try it and see how it goes. We got it home set it up and Lauren went to town weaving, she has made 1 potholder so far but was working on another one today after school. I like this, she doesn't ask to watch t.v. all the time now, she wants to craft after school. not a bad deal for $5.00 :)

Winter Fun

Lauren started school on January 4th and she LOVES it, she was sad today because it was a snow day and she couldn't go to school. We are having a snow/ ice storm here in GA and there's ice everywhere today. We spent the day around the firepit roasting marhmallows.

First Day of School

Lauren's first day of school is today at Trinity, she was so excited. She wasn't upset when we left at all, she said " Bye, see you later" and went off to play with the little girls in her class. She has 15 kids in her class and most of them are girls so she was happy with that. I thought I would be sad but she was so happy to be left there that I felt excited for her. She's a big girl now :)
