Just call her toothless

There goes another tooth! Pretty soon she will have milkshakes and mashed potatoes only! The next one on top is loose also. 

Never a dull moment around here.

Aurora is such a wonderful kid! I adore her imagination and sense of self. Aurora is looking forward to her birthday party this September 6th. (We are throwing it a bit early here because of some other scheduling conflicts) She loves her new boots and monkey feet for the school year. Her interest in wild animals hasn't faded at all, and she has added to it a like for Wild Kratts, dinosaurs, and transformers. She secretly likes the movie Frozen (although she doesn't have it yet) and she chose this year to get a larger gift from us (new bike) instead of a larger party. 

I wouldn't trade her heart, humor, or attitude (well sometimes her attitude) for anything.  

First day of first grade.

First day. The number one question of the day: In first grade, do they have recess?

Priorities first everyone! Have a good day.

It must have been a great day! this is how she looks coming home from school, and afterschool care....
