Another one bites the dust

Ry lost another tooth last night! I don't know if there's much in life more exciting to an almost 6 year old then a wiggly tooth! Thank goodness there's many more to go!

City creek

We went downtown to the new City Creek Mall today with Grandpa and Granny Kate. The mall was amazing!! I can't wait to go back down on a warm sunny day and let Rylee play in the water! There were so many great stores. Our favorite (me and Ry) was 77 kids (American Eagle). Rylee had fun trying things on and showing off to us:)

Happy Spring!

We have Easter fever a little early this year! Eggs were boiled and colored last night... and an Easter hut decorated tonight!

Happy birthday Granny Kate...

We love you!

My life be like...

I'm one lucky girl.

Have a happy day

Loose tooth madness

The past couple of weeks Rylee's first loose tooth has been endlessly on her mind.

Shes been patiently awaiting the day when her tooth would no longer be inside her mouth.
Yesterday was the day.

Her tooth was more loose than ever... and more painful then she had anticipated. Rylee had a playdate scheduled after school but sadly she decided to cancel her plans in fear that her tooth would hurt too bad. She sat on the couch most of the afternoon pushing along the backside of her tooth with her tongue. Around dinner time her tooth was so wiggly it was hanging by its last thred.

Dinner was on the table when the emotional rollercoaster began. Rylee had bit down wrong on her tooth and blood appeared. Her tooth was sticking out sideways, clearly causing pain. Rylee wouldn't let anyone assist her in pulling it out. After many pep talks Rylee decided that Granny Kate could "deliver" her tooth when she got home from work. So, when Granny walked in the door from her long day away she washed her hands, grapped a papertowel for leverage, and yanked that baby tooth right out!

After about 10 minutes of constant crying Rylee decided she would first go to the mirror and see her new look, then admire the tooth.

Now, in my opinion the best part about loosing a tooth is the tooth fairy. For Rylee shes not ready to part with her new treasure. She's planning to keep the tooth.
