Another month gone...and another tooth!

Happy Halloween! October has come and gone. And November is here. This year is almost over, can you believe it? Not I, Not I. We've had a fun filled month. Isaac has lost ANOTHER tooth! And yes, he lost this one AT SCHOOL, while eating lunch again. I'm not so disappointed this time. I'm just happy he didn't swallow it :o)



Isaac is doing fantastic in school, he just accepted a math and reading award at his very first Honor Assembly. He also participated in his first Red Ribbon week, which represents 'Just say No to Drugs'. The school had a dress in red day and whoever dressed in the most red won a prize. Well, guess what ~ Isaac won! He wore 6 red shirts, 2 red scarfs, red pants, red underwear, red socks, red shoes, basically ALOT of red! And he made a sign for the school parade.
































Isaac was a dragon this year for Halloween. So cute...and so big. I don't realize how big he's gotten until I see these pictures. MacyJo was a fairy princess. And we had fun taking some pics of her in this costume. To say the least....it was quit a challenge. Isaac and I carved a huge pumpkin....the one he picked out at the pumpkin patch. Next year we'll be downsizing on pumpkins ;o)










































MacyJo has found fun in destroying the toilet paper and messing up the towels in the towel cabinet. She's so mischievous these days...it's just a hoot watching her explore and learn.





















Well, Kris and I are still staying busy with work, church and family. Nothing really new to tell. We are just so thankful for every blessing. We're looking forward to the upcoming holidays and colder weather. We love all of you, take care!

First time for everything

A couple of Sunday's ago, we were at church and Isaac came running up to me yelling, "Mommy, Mommy! Look! My tooth is loose, My tooth is loose!!" And was it loose... it was barely hanging on. I thought, Oh yay! ....we're going to get to see his tooth fall out today and the tooth fairy will be visiting tonight. But no, it didn't happen that way. He had to loose it at school the next day while eating his pb&j sandwich in the lunch room! I wasn't there and that made me sad ;o( But I was happy that his thoughtful teacher saved it for him and even presented him with a tooth award, how fun!! He was ecstatic when I picked him up at school that day, couldn't quit smiling and held on to his tooth & tooth award till bedtime. And then the tooth fairy came! And boy was he excited when he woke up the next morning with money under his pillow. This is such a cute little milestone. I just can't believe how much he's grown, it really does go by TOO fast. I remember when he first started brushing all those cute baby teeth. Here is a pic of his beautiful smile and missing tooth. SO adorable! I love him so much!!



And my sweet baby girl MacyJo was in her very first pageant yesterday.....and won! She is now the new 2008 Little Miss Sherwood, can you believe it!! This was so much fun. Macy really showed out and worked the stage when she was up. She got crowned Best Personality and Little Miss Infant QUEEN! She got a huge crown, trophy, flowers and sash. She was so cute! I love her so much too!!
