Tooth Party

Abigail has been asking when her teeth will fall out since Corban lost his first! About a month ago, the children were playing and Abigail bumped her tooth and it loosened.  Her new tooth started to grow but the baby tooth took its time to come out- so for a week you could see both teeth!
Finally, in the middle of the night it fell out!  She was SO excited and came to tell Daddy and Mommy (and wanted to wake up everyone but waited until morning!). 

For the first tooth lost, we do something extra special 
(other teeth we have an ice cream party!).
Abigail wanted to go on a fancy date with Mommy and Daddy!
She picked out what we would wear, 
I helped her get ready and took her to Daddy's office for a little bit and then they came home and picked me up.  
We went to a restaurant on 
Las Olas and sat outside.  Abigail really liked the cheese platter and her Shirley Temple drink.  We played tic-tac-toe and hangman.  We talked and listened with our beautiful big girl!

Hadassah saw this dress and thought it was so beautiful and asked if it would be a good dress for when she gets married!

October dates





Corban and Daddy space date

Corban and Daddy went to 1/2 day class on space that was part of the homeschool STEM program at the science museum!  
Corban was so excited 
because he loves learning about space!  
They built and launched a stomp rocket, learned about constellations and black holes in the planetarium, and were the pilot on interactive aviation simulators.


Abigail and Mommy make a meal date


This was Abigail's favorite date last year 
and we had fun planning and making dinner together again.  She chose pizza 
(made with homemade dough and sauce), 
cucumbers and bell peppers with hummus, 
and a chocolate chip pie with ice cream.  
Abigail loves to help in the kitchen 
and is a great cook!
