Lost Tooth

5 days after Arde's 6th birthday he lost his FIRST tooth! This led to a whole array of tooth fairy questions. Is she big or little? Will she stare at me for a while as I am sleeping? I'm scared to go to sleep now. How will she lift my pillow up?

The tooth fairy left Max $1 and a small bag of M & M's. He was so happy!

Max 6th Birthday

Max turned 6 on Sept. 10. He had a friend come over that night and we went to Wild Air the next day. Since his birthday lasted for two days by the second day he was having breakdowns. We called him "The Birthday Diva". We leave Wild Air (which he chose to go to) and said, "yeah, that was fun, not the MOST fun I have ever had. I would have rather gone to Funset Blvd." That was our Birthday Diva...

A new DS!

The best for last...my dad riding my mom's bike. Lovin' the basket, dad! It will come in handy when you pick Daisys.

Sleeping?

Late one night Maddie drifted off into what I thought was a peaceful sleep. As I was in the living room I thought I heard something rustling around, but dismissed it. When I heard a noise for the 3rd time I decided to go check it out. As I round the corner I see my sleeping beauty wide awake and peeking from behind her bedroom. While I thought she was sleeping she was actually redecorating the hallway.

Looks like a geat organized mess! I can't believe it took me so long to hear her!

Maddie out of the blue says to me.."we both have diarrhea don't we mommy?" My response, "not that I know of!"
Tonight Maddie told me, "J.T. is my boyfriend." (This is a guy that is helping us design our new house) On the next breath she says, "Richard is also my boyfriend, but don't tell Daddy."

One night I told Maddie she was cracking me up. Her response was, "You want to gobble me all up don't you mommy!?"
As I was putting Maddie to bed I told her I was going to go and wished her a goodnight. "Why do you have to go mommy?" I told her my nose was dripping and I had to get a tissue. She held up the bottom part of her pajama shirt and said, "Here mommy, just wipe your nose on my shirt that's what I do."
Maddie was mad at me today (like usual). A bee came by her while we were outside and here are her exact words "Bee go away! Go by mommy!"
