My little Laney bug has had a big summer so far! I am constantly reminded that she’s growing up faster than I want.

It started with her first mini-triathlon. She has been talking about running in a “race” for awhile now so when I heard about this in Hermiston I thought it would be perfect. She had to swim across the pool, bike .6 miles and run .4 miles. She had a great time- and we were so proud of her when she finished!

 

Daddy got to run with her during the bike and run- which she loved- look at her go!

She also got treated to her first mani/pedi with her friend Keilena. This pampering was right up her alley and she’s been asking to go back almost everyday this week!

But the biggest development was the loss of her first tooth! (She seems so young to lose a tooth but the good Doctor assures me that even though it’s early it’s still perfectly ok.) She and I were both traumatized by the experience and the only way I managed to get her calmed down was to call “Dr. Daddy” at work so he could explain it to her. After 30 minutes of hysterics with me, she calmly accepted her Daddy’s explanation, hung up the phone, dried her tears…. and asked me to make her a special pillow for the tooth fairy! Thanks goodness for Daddy's!!!!

The Tooth Fairy came in the night and now she checks everyday for more loose teeth!
