Phone Pics

Just a few pictures that I've taken with my phone....

Bri's "mean" face. Oh the many, many times I see this in a day =) She even tries to roll her eyes at me. Ha! That is hilarious. 

Jeremiah can be the best big brother ever. Sure the girls get on his nerves at times, but there are also moments like this. Just to make her happy, because she wanted to play Pokemon, he will let her mess up his game and play.

This picture makes me laugh. I use to leave the closet door open in the girls room, but that quickly changed when I would wake up to a massive, literally massive, piles of books on her floor. Apparently Bri has turned into a night owl and while everyone is asleep, she reads. So, I started to lock the closet. One morning I woke up to this. A very organized, everything in it's place {well for a 3year old} line of pull-ups. She is my daughter =). I like organization and everything to be in place. {Excuse the white marks.....she also got into the diaper cream...she is something else!}

 Now, this REALLY makes me LOL. Avery, especially. One night I wanted to take a picture of us girls in Avery's bed hanging out. My phone flash is so bright though, it made Avery cheese really big and make big eyes. But, made Bri do the opposite. HA!

Tooth Fairy Time

The Tooth Fairy has been super busy these days. Not leaving money/gifts for lost teeth, but trying to complete this..... 

I found this really cute idea on Pinterest, of course.

Jaimee Rose has an easy DIY to follow as well as She's Making Cards. You can pretty much find everything at Hobby Lobby. I did, however, just today (see I'm slacking), buy the door knocker at Miniatures. 

Although, I totally forgot the mail slot so I will buy that as well.

Today I decided to tackle this door finally and buy the parts I still needed, until I realized that I put the numbers on the wrong side of the door. I kind of freaked for a minute thinking I'd have to buy another door, but I can just use the left over numbers. I just have to paint the other side first and add the extra trim to the other side.

Here is the idea behind the Tooth Fairy door.....basically this is where the fairy enters and leaves money/gifts. The box next to the door, here is my plan with that... In hopes that this little box lasts over the years, this will be the box where all of her baby teeth are kept.

In all honesty, I kind of think it's a bit weird/gross to keep all the teeth, but when I look back on those I have of Jeremiah's, it's kind of sentimental in a weird way. Ha!

I'm giving myself a week to finish this little project and start this cute, fun tradition with Avery.

I say the Tooth Fairy has been busy because, well Avery has had her teeth out since mid February! Oops! :) And I've kind of put this door thing on the back burner. So, I think I will use the idea of mailing Avery the door; Like she got a special gift from the Tooth Fairy. Possibly write a little letter telling Avery to put the door in a special place so she can visit her that night.

Here are a few things I, ahem...the Tooth Fairy will be doing as well....

Fairy Dust!! Gotta leave a little at the front of the door! Every Fairy has to have Fairy Dust! :) {I'll DIY my own though}

Tooth Fairy Kit. So cute huh! I like this because I want to date when she lost her teeth. Plus, a cute little letter and certificate from the Tooth Fairy is adorable!

HowDoesShe shared a cute idea on how to leave the tooth.

And there ya have it! Our Tooth Fairy tradition! I'm sure I'll add more or change things over the years, but for now I love it all. :)

Oh the things I wish I knew when Jeremiah was the girls' age. Alas, with everything new I find, I just start it now....

All I want for Christmas...

are my two front teeth"

As most know, Avery has always had some type of issue with her two front teeth. When she was 2ish, she had to be sedated to have her teeth filled since she had missing enamel. That was one of the worst days of my life. Just watching her go from a hyper child to knocked out cold, was just crazy.

Anyway, well a few months back, she finally let the dentist clean her teeth and we were told that she would start to have an abscess here soon, in the next year for sure. Well, sure enough, she had one.

At our appointment she was a little scared but did great. I held her hand the whole time as she watched Nemo. Our dentist did great, hiding the pretty big needle that he used on her gums. She had no clue what he was doing. The minute he started to pull out one tooth, she went crazy. She could only feel pressure and didn't know what was going on.

The plan was to pull just one, but as he showed me the x-rays of her mouth, he told me that the other would do the same in about a year as well, so I just said to pull the other and be done with it.

Let me tell you, one of her teeth's root was looooong! That was pretty crazy to see.

She did really great for the whole thing, even with the freak out...can you blame her?!
