3rd lost tooth!

Hannah lost her 3rd tooth last night. I was very proud of her. She has been very hesitant with pulling her teeth (the two others she has lost). It takes her forever to work on them and months down the road someone has to pull them for her. Chad's mom pulled her first one and I pulled her 2nd one. The tooth has been a little loose for a while. She came home yesterday from school and just kept wiggling it all afternoon. She got it out before bedtime all on her own initiative. It was great progress for her. Now she has a big gap because the last tooth that came out still hasn't come in all of the way. It doesn't keep her from smiling big for everyone!!!

Hannah's Birthday

Hannah had her 7th birthday on Sunday. She didn't want her birthday to be on a sunday because it would mean "dad would be gone all day." Chad only did his early morning meetings from 6-9am and then came home to be with Hannah. She was very pleased with that. Hannah was very excited for her birthday and has been counting down for weeks. She didn't ask for anything specific and was happy with everything she received. The day turned out good for her. It's hard to believe she's 7.

Doesn't she look pleased?

Hannah wanted an elephant cake. I was very last minute on this cake (finishing it 9:30pm on Saturday) and ended up being a little disappointed. It's definitely not my best cake. I tried a shortcut I had read about for doing the outlining. I did not like it and will not do it again. Oh well. Hannah liked the cake which is what counts. It tasted good anyways.
