My poor Punky


Abby has the worst luck with teeth. In her short 6 years she has had a filling, a crown, a root canal, a molar pulled and now 2 more teeth pulled. Her baby teeth didn't fall out when her permenant teeth came in so she had 2 sets of bottom teeth. Not quite the way it is suppossed to be. We waited for her baby teeth to become loose but a month into it we took her to the dentist and they decided to pull them. So poor punky had the first day of school and 2 teeth pulled all on the same day. I know, I'm such a bad mom.

As a side note, we had to take Andrew to the ER last night because his asthma was flairing up. He has had a cough for a week or so and it became really bad Sunday into Monday. After a lung x-ray it was determind that he has bronchiolitis. He is on steroids and breathing treatments every 4 hours. My poor babies.

On a side side note, Andrew starts a new preschool tomorrow. He was suppossed to start yesterday but we decided not to send him. He is going to a totally different church and he will be going 3 days a week now. I love his old teacher and am very sad that he won't be in her class or that he won't be in class with Autumn but we thought this would be better for him in the long run. I'm sure he will cry tomorrow (me too)

Birthday Party and First day of 1st Grade

What a fun and busy weekend. It was the perfect last weekend before school started. James and Jeannie came up for Abby’s birthday and were able to stay for her birthday party. The party was so much fun. We had it at Pump it Up thankfully because 25 of her friends came. I am not doing a party at home ever again. It was perfect timing because it was one last hoorah before school and all of her old classmates were able to enjoy one last party together before being split into other classes. Abby even got Jeannie to go down the big slide. I told Jeannie that I was going to post pictures so she has at least been warned.
Well, today was Abby’s first day of first grade. How did that happen? We met Abby’s teacher last week and I really like her. She is young and seems really nice. I think she will be a good match for Abby. We also found out that 3 of her friends from last year are in her class again. They did split up the 4 musketeers though. Abby became best friends with Emma, Mclain and Brooke. Emma and Brooke and in class together and Abby and Mclain are in the same class. Ok, drumroll please . . .

There were no tears!!! No tears from me or Abby!!! What a great way to start the school year. I was so proud of her. We saw her Kindergarten teacher so I think that helped a lot. Lots and lota of pictures!!!

The newest member of our family

Let me introduce you to Rose (named by Abby). Her real name is Princess Rose but with a Prince already in the house we thought it might get a little confusing. So does that make me and Marty the King and Queen since we now have a Prince and Princess? She is adorable and so sweet. She will let Abby and Andrew drag her around and when she has had enough she will escape to our bed. But that doesn't stop the kids from crawling under the bed and dragging her back out. Prince is tolerating her well enough, in fact it's been much better than I had expected. Prince just pretty much ignores her. He is on a food strike though. That's his way of pouting. She did climb up on our bed last night but as soon as one of us moved, off she went. Prince was already under the covers and fast asleep so he didn't know she was there. Now that will be the true test as to how much he likes her. I think once they warm up to each other they will have a good time together.
