caroline lost her first tooth today!

it was super wiggly, and basically pointing forward, so she asked me to pull it out.  luckily, it came right out.

 

"dear tooth fairy, i lost my first tooth.  please can please bring merida? thank you. love, caroline rupon"

Q was playing 3rd base during his baseball game tonight. he fielded a grounder and tagged out the runner advancing from 2nd base. a legitimate baseball play!

dress rehearsal

reading rainbow

caroline seems to have learned how to read. she absorbs her weekly sight word instantly. but she's picking up other words like crazy. sounding them out? from us reading to her? not sure, but it's insane to watch.

of course, she likes to read in the car and  since i can't help her with words she doesn't know, she will spell them out. it's surprisingly hard to concentrate on driving and figure out what's she's spelling at the same time. especially when she mixes up b's and d's...

game ball!
