Getting older.......

I had no business taking a picture of Korley this weekend other than the fact that she turned 11 months-old on Saturday. She got the Rotavirus (awful, nasty, yucky!) on Wednesday and was sick through the weekend. Needless to say, she was not in one of her better moods when this picture was taken, but at least I chronicled her 11 month birthday!


Landry didn't want to be left out of the picture taking *fun*, so I snapped this picture of her.

Little did I know that this would be the last picture taken of her before THIS!!!!


Yep, she lost her first tooth last night. We were eating at Scotty P's and after we finished eating I noticed a big "gap" while she was talking. I asked her to open her mouth and I said "Where's your tooth?!?!?" She immediately panicked (thinking she might be bleeding--she wasn't) but was excited when I took her in the bathroom so she could see her "window" (her words) in the mirror.

Here she is talking on the phone to PopPop and Gigi about the *good news*!


And, since we didn't actually have the tooth, Landry was extremely concerned that the Tooth Fairy wouldn't find her. So, she decided to draw a picture of a tooth (you have to REALLY use your imagination on this one) to leave under her pillow. It has roots and everything. And, in case you are wondering...YES, the tooth fairy did find her!



Last, but certainly not least----today is my Dad's birthday! Happy birthday, Dad! You are the best Dad and PopPop in the world! We can't wait to celebrate your birthday with you!

Poor Korley...that virus has been going around here too. I hope it continues to stay away from our house:) She still looks precious in that picture though.

I cannot believe Landry lost a tooth. Kaylee keeps asking me when she will loose a tooth. I am sure that the tooth fairy took very good care of her:) Hope you all have a good week and stay well.

that first picture of korley, oh my word! she looks so much like a "Hall". my first thought was that she looked exactly like you...and then i thought me, and finally i settled on that she looks just like gigi. don't you think??

can't wait to see you guys. sorry about all the illness in your house.

Rotavirus is the WORST thing Seth has ever had to deal with (which is saying a lot!) Hope she is feeling better now!

Loose teeth...I can't believe she is old enough for that. She looks so cute with her gap tooth!

You made me homesick for Scotty P's...

I nearly fainted when Matthew lost his first tooth. Sounds like you handled it better than me!

Love the window; as well as, the "don't mess with me" look from Korley!

How exciting! Her first tooth! I love that she called it a window. What a little smartie!

Poor Korley. Even though she feels bad she still takes a cute pic!


I loved your Oscar commentary. I felt the same way about it being boring! I loved Penelope's dress though!!

Awww, poor Korley. That rotavirus was so awful when Ellie had it.

Pics are adorable, though!

Poor Korley! Yay for Landry. I bet she was sooo excited. LOL - that tooth drawing was hilarious.

Your girls are too cute.
