Fall Time Firsts!!!

This fall seems to mean lots of new "firsts" at our house. I guess you could stay it all started with this...


Now, if you haven't figured it out yet, this isn't any ordinary picture of Bayleigh with her bike. There is something missing. Still haven't guessed it yet? I will give you a hint, there are TWO things missing. Okay, for those of you who still haven't got an answer it is...TRAINING WHEELS!!! While Jason and I were out of town for my ten year high school reunion, Bayleigh and my dad worked very hard on learning to ride her bike without her training wheels. Bayleigh is going to be in a mini mud madness triathlon for her school at the end of October and it was very important to her to ride a bike like a big girl.



Now, Brooke and Brylee also had a "first" this month as well. The girls took their first trip to the dentist. I was a little nervous as to how well the would sit in a chair while their teeth were being cleaned but they did GREAT!!! They both especially loved the spit sucker, but the highlight of the trip was when their dentist blew each of them up a latex glove balloon. They spent the rest of the morning trying to "milk" their cow udder balloon.

There was also one more BIG first for Bayleigh. On Saturday, October 9th, Bayleigh lost not one but TWO teeth. They had been loose for awhile, but some very intense flossing on my part popped them right out. No gums for this girl though...her two permanents had already grown in right behind. The tooth fairy was VERY generous. She left SEVEN dollars and a new tooth brush!
