Dallin and Kailyn

Kailyn lost her 2 front teeth!  A week ago she came to me with a really loose tooth.  I told her it would be out before the night was over.  She wiggled and we tried to pull it but it wouldn't come.  She went to bed and then came out with her OTHER tooth in her hand!  She said she just wiggled it and it came out.  So the really loose tooth would not come out - it was turning gray and just hanging there.  Finally last night I told her to go have Aaron pull it.  She went to get a tissue and came back with it pulled.  She did it herself!  That describes Kailyn perfectly.  She is great at just getting things done and doing what needs to be done herself.  I love her!
 
Dallin is so stinking cute.  I haven't enjoyed my other kids as much as I have him at this age.  Part of it might have to do with the fact that I have either been pregnant or taking care of a newborn when they were 2.
Time out with Dallin is working best with his nose in the corner.  Every time he has to go there it makes me laugh (quietly and obviously behind his back:))  He does pretty good to stay despite his whining and crying while he is there.
This video shows Dallin's personality pretty well.  I wanted him to say, "Are ya ready?" but he wouldn't.  He will come up to you and pat your leg and say, "Are ya ready?" all the time!

i love these little blurps about your individual kids. kailyn is so pretty! she's so grown up. and dallin is such a boy with his chopper. i started time out with sammy, but she slowly and "secretly" scoots her bum away from the corner and thinks it is so funny.i need to start making her stick her nose in it. didn't kailyn used to stick her little bum out while she did it?

i don't know. i think any word that is a sound effect can be a word. :)
