Blake lost his 1st tooth on Monday!! I was at an appointment with Emerson and came home to the big news ;) It's been loose since January 20th!! The tooth next to it is also loose. I thought kids usually lost their top middle teeth first but I'm sure there's no real 'order', just like when they come in!! He was wiggling it around and out it came! No yanking or pulling, painless he says! He was excited for a tooth fairy visit and took quite awhile to fall asleep that night! We decided on $2.00 for the first tooth, which Blake was very happy with. On Tuesday when we were waiting outside the school for the bell to ring, he said to every classmate that walked up to him, "Look, I lost a tooth!" as he pulled down his bottom lip ... too cute ;)
Em had her 4 year pediatrician appointment on Monday afternoon. She is healthy as a horse and growing! She is 99 cm and 36 lbs - 35 %tile for height and 50th for weight. She's grown 7 cm and 6 lbs in 1 year! And she's rose on the charts for height, last year she was in the 25th %tile for height ;) I have a feeling our girls have gotten a good dose of the short genes from their grandma's but I do admit, I hope they are at least 5'4" ;) I know, it really doesn't matter but being 5'3 1/2" (yes I had to put that 1/2" in there!), I too wish I was a few inches taller (you know, distribute the weight over a bit more surface area!). Anyways, Emerson had a good appointment, Dr. Radisic asked her some questions, said she sounded like a smart little girl (yes, thank you she is) and said he'll see us in another year (lets hope there is no need for a visit beforehand!)!
This week is meet week AGAIN. Like I always say, it comes too fast and is a crazy few days! And this Thursday and Friday are teacher's convention so no school and that means all 3 kids will be joining me at the meet on Friday. But we are going to do something fun after the meet on Friday, so it will make up for making them sit in the van for 3 hours!!
Have a great week everyone :)
