~Day 2• 234: More Family!

Sunday, August 23:

The start of the day was pretty rough.  Cailee slapped Brookie.  Brookie slammed the door on Cailee's nose.  So both girls were sent to their rooms.  They both fell asleep.  Brookie ended up sleeping for about 3 1/2 hours.  She really needed it.  She was really pleasant the rest of the day!

After church, we went over to Alissa and John's house for dinner.  Aunt Misty was in town to help Taylor and Jordan move to their new place.  Of course we all had to get together. As soon as we get to their house, the kids gravitate to JJ.  They sure love their cousin.  And JJ sure loves his Uncle Nick.  Especially when Nick was helping him run around the living room and getting in everyone's face.  He was laughing and smiling and it was cute.

Then Cailee had to show us how flexible she is.  That just looks painful.

When Misty got there, we had to get both babies on her lap for a picture, probably to make both of their grandma's jealous.  JJ liked to stick his finger in Sophie's ear... I don't think he was too sure about sharing Misty.

 Nathan and Erica, Stephanie and Bart, Taylor and Jordan were all there. We had good food, and good conversations. 

The kids got bored of just talking, so they gave Aunt Misty loves and went home.  It's nice that we live so close because they can go on their own for a bit and we are able to stay and visit.  It was fun to see everyone and to watch the babies play.  We are excited to have Taylor and Jordan living in the same valley!  We wonder how many more of the Wallace clan will end up down here... we can hope there are more!

Right before bed, Cailee came out and said her tooth was sticking out funny.  She could push it out pretty far.  She asked me to pull it out for her, which was very shocking.  I didn't think she would ask.  But it came out pretty easy and it didn't hurt much, she said.  She was all smiles, minus a tooth.  She was very excited to be able to have the tooth fairy visit, and also to tell her teacher the next day.  I love her toothless grin and can't wait for more teeth to fall out!
