The first one

This morning while getting ready I heard Olivia yell "It came out." Of course I instantly think that Caedan had gotten into something (Sorry Caedan). Olivia came running into the kitchen holding her first tooth; it had finally fallen out. While she was eating her waffle it just popped out. With all of the excitement she was almost late to school.

We brushed her tooth so that it would be clean and shiny for the tooth fairy. She was convinced that the tooth fairy only takes clean teeth. So now her tooth is safely in the pillow waiting for the tooth fairy to come tonight.

Lightening

On Thursday Olivia had her first soccer practice. She is on the lightening team which consists of 6 girls. This is Olivia's first time playing soccer. When I say that it is her first time playing I mean that she has never even kicked a soccer ball. So like any good parents we talked to her on the way to practice in the car about the basics. You know things like not touching the ball with your hands and how to score a goal.


Listening intently to what the coach has to say.

A really cute soccer fan.

After the 30 minute practice there was a game. Nothing like jumping right in and practicing everything that you have just learned! Games consist of 2 ten minutes halves followed by snacks which I believe was the most exciting part for the kids.

Ready to start the game.

What do we do now?

The final play of the game.
The game ended in a 2-2 tie. In the car Olivia said that ending in a tie is actually a good thing. That way everyone goes home happy!

Evergreen State Fair

On Saturday we meet up with the Perry Family at the Evergreen State Fair in Monroe. This was the first time that we have taken Olivia to the fair. Lets just say that she loved it. She went on several rides and we finally had to drag her home at 10:00pm.



So how do you spend your time at the fair when you are too small to go on any of the rides? You get to watch your sister go on several rides as she is laughing and having a great time. Caedan was completely happy sitting in the stroller watching Olivia and waving at her each time that she would go by us. Hopefully next time he will be big enough to go on some of the rides!
