Girls, Shadows and Teeth

Yesterday Landon came home from school and had done a secret code at school. The teacher had prepared marks and what each mark stood for which letter. He brought it home and I figured out his code. It was "Lillie I crush on you". He was so embarrassed as I was getting each word figured out. But he gave it to me to figure out. It was really funny. The last week or so we have been talking about crushes and what they mean. I pretty much thought that he liked girls like he liked his little sister, or cousins. But he told me a crush is when you like/love someone but you don't want them to know. Funny thing was is he showed Lillie his code but said she didn't have enough time to figure it out. Silly boy. He said he likes her because they are twins now. He found out that they have the same birthday and they both have brown eyes and both had 8 pom poms at school. She sits right across from him and she is a sweet little thing.

Kylie last week came to me one morning and was telling me about a shadow that scared her so much she couldn't lean over and get a drink from her cup. She said it looked like a head. So during the day we went in and she was going to show me where it was. We couldn't find it and she said it had to be darker. So when it was bed time I tried again to find her scary shadow, but we still couldn't find it. So I told her that shadows are fun and you can make cool pictures from them. I showed her a butterfly. She went to bed. Then the next morning she came in and told me she figured out what her shadow was. She said it was her head - it really must have looked like a head. I thought it was really cute. For now we are good about shadows.

Tannen finally cut a tooth last week. The week of Thanksgiving he cut he first top tooth. He got the second one last week. We have been waiting forever on these little teeth. Not that I am anxious for them to come, but because I have seen four little bumps on his gums off and on for a couple of months. Still waiting for the last two side ones to come in. But boy is he cute with his top two in.

We did go to Justin's house last weekend and had a blast. I am hoping Sara will email me some of the pictures and then I will post more on that later.
