Garage sale time!

Since this is more of a journal entry type thing for us than a blog I know when I read this in 23 years, I am gonna wonder "Did Gentry get her blue blanket back that night?" The answer is a big fat simple NO! She decided to bop her little brother on the head with a plastic mircophone, so we had to take it, as well as her whole entourage away. She assured me that night, as I tucked her in, that the Dora bedspread would work to suck on and "You can just wash it later." Thanks Gentry for clarifying. So our genius idea to take away the blue blanket was a epic fail! Onto happier things...Tuesday evening Destiny came over and she was running in from her car with the biggest smile EVER! She smiled so big after she burst in the front door and there was a gap in her smile, she lost her first tooth! She was beyond proud:) That evening all her and G talked about was their teeth and the tooth fairy! G kept asking me to wiggle her tooth because it too was loose! Crazy girl. The next morning Destiny came into the living room smiling, again, and carrying $3! What a happy little girl:)

Proud little Destiny

G had to do a picture like this too:)

Her money from the tooth fairy!



               That morning we went the Y and then we spent all day at moms getting ready for the garage sale. Destiny, Gentry and Chloe played outside as we got eveyrthing unpacked and laid out. (Ace came out after his nap and whined like a puppy till I got him out of his seat...beggar:) It was fun to see all of my old toys as a child and it is crazy how something can hold so many memories. I found my favorite cabbage patch, Nadine, and my favorite little bear! We found some of Briana's toys that I remember her playing with and lots of Barbies. Man do those bring back the memories! (Making pools out of tupperware and putting the barbies in them in the basement:)  But the best was a letter to Mom that said "Cookie Sheets Cookie Sheets just for you, make us some cookies and we dont mean a few!!!" After lunch Luke took the beans home and we continued until 5 O'clock that evening. Exhausting! 
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      
Playing in the tub at Nana's. They were 2 dirty little rascals after "helping" with the garage sale!
Here is Nadine and bear that we found!
   Today we have done our usual morning routine which included getting Destiny again while her mom worked! Then we picked up Luke's Fathers Day gift!! So excited to show him. Then going back to moms to price everything. Next Garage sale....NEVER!! They are so time consuming. The highlight of the evening tonight was Ace stood on his own for, wait for it...3 seconds! That is a long time when he has never stood alone! He got so excited we kept trying to do it again but he just laughed the whole time. I love my little blonde haired, blue eyed, 4 toothed monster:)
        Tomorrow we get our new furniture! I am so excited for a fresh update to our house and to also change the ambiance of the room. Pictures to come!
