Halloween

 After dinner we did some trick or treating at Uncle Larry and Aunt Kathy's.  Astrid loves to hold baby Miyah, and the girl's were spoiled with yummy candy.

 Peyton and Brynlyn with cousin Heather's magic dancing broom!

The night is over, and the kids are worn out!

Pumpkin

Happy Halloween!

Peyton was not happy that she had to take off her Minnie PJ's to run errands this morning!  Brynlyn however picked out her outfit with care and dug through the dress up box to find her mask I had made.  Miyah just looked cute and looked around!  Can't wait to dress up the sweeties and snap more pictures.

Brynlyn has been asking and asking "when can we carve pumpkins"?  Finally we carve them, well Chad did most of the work.  Brynlyn was grossed out and wouldn't willingly help.  She did specify that her pumpkin needed to be missing two bottom teeth just like her.  Peyton had no interest and it felt like a bust this year!  Blah. 

They did enjoy going outside to light up the pumpkins in the dark!

Two front teeth

 Brynlyn is very excited about her missing two (bottom) front teeth!

Sometimes my sweet daughter's are kind to each other!  I had to stop what I was doing and quickly take a picture.  This kind of behavior is not common at our house!  Made my heart melt!

Tooth Fairy

Brynlyn had two loose teeth for almost a month.  Chad tried to convince her to pull them out, but she liked wiggling them.  And decided to keep them as long as possible.

One afternoon Brynlyn stepped off the school bus with a huge smile and squealed.  "I lost my tooth at school and got to walk to the nurses office with Nicholas, it only bleed a little and it was SO COOL.  Look at my tooth NECKLACE and my tooth is in it, IT REALLY IS!  I was sitting on the square rug with my class, pushing my loose tooth with my top teeth and it JUST POPPED onto my tongue!  I raised my hand and teacher was excited for me."

 That very morning I had pulled a new book from our gift box.  It just happened to be "Dear Tooth Fairy"  We read it a couple times before school.  My wonderful visiting teacher gave Brynlyn this adorable custom tooth fairy pillow for her 5th birthday.

 The tooth fairy came to our house and left Brynlyn a whole dollar, a sucker, and a pink note in a pink envelope!  It was so exciting.  We think the tooth fairy will return very soon!
