Happy Halloween

Tooth number 2

It finally fell out. Literally just fell out as Miriam sat up in her bed one morning. In the Kendell family we like to let the tooth get so loose it is hanging by a thread before considering it to be loose enough to come out. Even then, wanting to wiggle the said loose tooth causes terror and crying. It must come from the Kendell side. (Walkers are much braver) The tooth fairy, stealth as always, took the tooth and left a dollar.

Here is what has happened

So I'm a little behind in my blogging. Sorry, life gets busy. To catch you up, here is a summary: Miriam broke her arm, Joseph had a birthday and we went to Disneyland. Phew! Enjoy the photos!!

Taylor's first day of school

This morning, I dropped the big kids off at school and then continued to drive Taylor to preschool. When we parked, I hadn't even shut off the car when he said "bye mom". I guess he in not too sad about not being at home all day with me. I have to admit, I went jogging all by myself and at first I felt a little lonely, and then it turned into a feeling of freedom. After picking him up all he would tell me is they learned letters and some girl has a moustache. ( I am really hoping it is not his teacher, and if it is I am really really hoping he doesn't say anything!)

First Day of School

"It's the most wonderful time of the year...." I know typically that is a Christmas song; but a staples commercial I saw a few years back brought it out in a whole new light. Both Miriam and Joseph were very excited this morning and were up and in the shower by 6:40 without fighting. I finally had to ask Joseph to take off his backpack because wearing a backpack for 40 minutes will make any persons back hurt. (he gets a little nervous about being late) They got to school only a little late (no buses so they depend on me) and each of them forgot all of their supplies in the car (and I didn't even notice) One day down - the rest of the year to go.
