School BBQs, and a Milestone for Laela!

Yesterday, the kids school threw its annual family appreciation barbecue. Its always fun.

The kids eat lots and we all schmooze a little, and then the kids run off their sugar rushes (freezies!) on the walk home.

We got home right around bedtime, and I took Waverly upstairs to give her a bottle while Brady got the other kids settled into bed. Right as everyone should’ve been laying down for night, there was whooping and celebrating. Laela ran upstairs with something exciting to show me!

HER FIRST TOOTH CAME OUT! We celebrated and oohed and aahed at it for a bit. She was SO excited. Her bottom two teeth have been hanging by a thread for a while now, and upon looking into her mouth, we could see one adult tooth coming through behind already! Brady and I talked to her a bit about the other tooth, but she would not have it pulled. Understandably. I didn’t find the removing of teeth thing enjoyable either. She was open to trying to pull it herself, though! It barely took anything and that sucker was out!

Her first TWO TEETH came out!!!!

She was SO excited, and SO proud of herself! We’re pretty proud of her, too.

You were SO brave, Laela!
