Elizabeth lost a tooth









Her tooth has been loose for a while and it finally just popped out this afternoon. In the close up smile you can see that the new adult tooth is already starting to grow in. She is very excited about the tooth fairy coming and leaving her a surprise tonight.

I Forgot to put pictures with my post and talk about Abby. Here are our costumes at Halloween and the other picture is Elizabeth and Abby at AIM. Abby goes to preschool there 3 afternoons a week and has a great time.

Hello blogging world!

hello blogging world!
I am going to try blogging again at least once a month. I'm coming back now because my Aunt Barbara posted a message on facebook that she wants to see more blog posts and I am off work this week because I hurt my foot. Once again I rolled my foot (like the post from June of 2009) Last Saturday I was playing tag with Chris, Steven, and the girls at a park and there was a dent in the grass I stepped into it and fell twisting my foot in the process. Chris took me to Kaiser on Sunday because it got all swollen we thought it might be broken but no, the good news is it is just sprained. Hopefully my recovery will only be one week and not two weeks like the last foot injury. So I am keeping off my foot as much as possible and icing it to make the swelling go down.
So now I will try to update things from 10 months ago. I am still working at AIM with children with disabilities but because of budget cuts we are not getting the children refered to the center program and all of our classes have gotten smaller. So to make up more hours and serve more children I am now also a home teacher meaning I go to the homes of the children and work with them there. It keeps me busy. Chris is still working for Caltrains in the swing shift so we can trade off work schedules. He is very good and walks with Elizabeth to school every morning so I can get ready for work. In August Elizabeth started kindergarten and is enjoying school. For Halloween the girls and I were princesses and Chris was our prince. Well technically he was a thief because he was Eugene (Flinn Rider) from Rapunzel. We went to Visalia, CA for Thanksgiving to be with Chris's parents and brother Craig and family. We stayed in San Jose for Christmas with my parents and family. Then drove to Visalia again to spend Elizabeth's 6th Birthday and New Years Eve with family there.
