Shawn lost his first tooth on September 19th at school. He was so excited. He has another one pretty loose right next to the one he lost. Every time he would have us wiggle his tooth to see if it was ready to come out,
Lillyanne would make us check her teeth too.
We got some goldfish, We have a fantail goldfish, a black moor goldfish and a redcap oranda goldfish. Lillyanne has been fascinated with them and will just lay there watching them. Except for one day a few days after we got them she climbed across the counter got the fish food and dumped the whole canister in there.
Shawn and Rhiannon are LOVING soccer. They are doing really good at it. Little naturals. Rhiannon likes to play goalie. Shawn just likes to be there kicking the ball and scoring.
Family Haircuts. I got my haircut short. No more pony tails. When I came home Rhiannon really wanted her
hair cut, so she talked me into cutting her hair, then Mike asked me to cut his. I have never done a male haircut.
But gave it a try. Turned out pretty good.

Rhiannon and Shawn had an eye doctor appointment. I took her to a different doctor just to confirm what the last doctor said. She does need to wear her glasses ALL the time and an eye patch over her right eye for two hours a day. She has a lazy eye on her left and is nearly blind in it. They dilated both of their eyes and she had a soccer game right after. She had a hard time seeing but did pretty well.
Lillyanne and turned 2. We just did a small family birthday party. I like to design things and made little invitations and decorations from the image I scanned on her monkey jammies.
We made chocolate chip cookie dough cupcakes with a chocolate buttercream frosting.
She slept through the beginning of her party and we just went ahead and ate. When she finally woke up we did the cupcakes and presents. She kept complaining her tummy hurt her and holding her tummy.
She was not into being sang to.
Rhiannon is doing well in school so far. Her first few weeks we were getting progress reports that she was talking to much. But now she is doing much better and getting perfect progress reports.The got Netbooks this year. She is really enjoying using it. They are learning how to email, chat, make documents, and power point presentations. They do a lot of their math and reading on it too. It is some program with AT&T. They donated Netbooks to our school district to test how well it helps with learning.
Shawn is doing great too. He is loving school. He sits so good and pays attention that when he gets home he is bouncing off the walls. But I would rather him be good at school and drive me crazy at home. Soccer has been a good thing for him to get energy out. His coach coaches his oldest sons (age 8) team too and Shawn has been practicing with them too. He loves to cook and help in the kitchen anytime he can. He makes dinner sometimes. He also helped with Lillyanne's cupcakes.
Lillyanne is a ham. Her hair is finally growing and getting longer. It has a little curl to it. She is talking more and copying EVERYTHING the two older ones do. She is now fully potty trained. She surprised us a few days before her birthday. Before we went to Utah she would go #2 on potty every time. Then we came home and she regressed. But now she does both pretty much every time. She had her 2 year check up the other day. She is 32 inches and 21 pounds. She is in the bottom of the charts for her height and below the charts for her weight. No concern though because she is proportionate and continuing to grow.
