All I want for Christmas is my new front tooth....

Oh wait....it's actually already in. Even better!
Last night Logan finally lost her first tooth!
At the ripe old age of 7 1/2 years!!
After about a month of complaining that it was
loose, it finally just came out. Her other tooth
had already grown in all the way, just behind
the baby tooth. So she looked a bit like JAWS
for a while! We are so glad it came out. She
was really glad that it didn't hurt. It was fun to
play tooth fairy, but a little tricky. I went to
lay down with Autumn so she would fall asleep.
Logan was already sawing logs, so I slipped the
tooth out from under her pillow. Then I went
of the room for a bit and was going to let Autumn
try to fall asleep before we put the dollar under
Logan's pillow. Then Logan woke up screaming that
her ear hurt. So we gave her some medicine and
sent her back to sleep. Good thing she didn't
notice there was no money or no tooth! This
morning she asked me if she could check under
her pillow! Funny gir! She was really happy to
find a dollar under her pillow and can't wait to tell
everyone at school!
The tooth she lost was the bottom front (on her
right side). The other one is already to move
forward now! Hope there is enough space for it.
It looks so much bigger!
More toothy shots!!

Sledding and such

James is such a wonderful dad!! He took the girls out sledding last weekend. They loved it! Followed by some yummy hot chocolate! What lucky girls! Too bad I had to work.

Santa was at FHE last monday and Logan was pretty happy to see him, although she did tell Santa she had been naughty this year. She asked for a zhu zhu pet. I guess it's all the rage this year. We'll see if she gets one! He gave her a candy cane for at least telling the truth about being naughty.
Then there was Autumn. Apparently, she did not love Santa. I was at work, so I missed out on yet another fun time with the girls! Thanks Mom Heaton and Dad Brookes for letting us borrow your cameras for the holidays, so we can capture some of these fun Christmas memories!

Our presents are all wrapped with bows standing in front of the tree! These girls are just great! Logan and Autumn in church Christmas outfits!
We hope you have a wonderful Christmas season. We are grateful for this time of year to remember the Savior and his birth. May you and your families know of our love for Him, and for all of you!! Merry Christmas!
