Where in the World is the Tooth Fairy

The Tooth Fairy has been late coming to our house. Evie and Allard thought she would never get here, and just after she left, she has to come back again.

Allard lost his tooth a couple of weeks ago at a boy scout camping trip and Evie lost hers the first week of November, but the Fairy didn't get here until Thursday of last week. On Saturday Lizzy had her friends over for her birthday sleepover and Allard decided to bite into a sucker and broke his molar out. Luckily, when I looked in his mouth the adult molar was there so it was already pushing it out to begin with, and he just happened to help it out. Lets see how long it takes the Fairy to show up this time. HAHAHA

Fall Product sales are over here, and both my girls were their Troops top sellers. Which is not hard for them. They smile alot and talk to every person that came out the doors they sat at. Evie gets all the gift incentives plus a $20.00 gift card. Lizzy's Troop declines the incentives so they get more money per product they sell and the money is given back to them to use on future girl scout outings. This system really helps to pay for the expensive trips they want to take, so she will pocket $100.00 for her Canada Trip this summer. (Now I just have to get her a bridge card or passport.)

We had conferences this past week, and all the kids did really well. Lizzy has low A's and high B's while doing swim team, and now that it is done she should be able to bring her grades back up to all A's. Allard had A's and B's in all classes except for Science. He had a D- and so when we went to conferences his teacher asked him why his grade was so low, and he said I don't know, and she asked do you study for the tests and he said NO. Always helps to take your children with you to conferences once they reach middle and high school. This way they get to hear what the teachers will say about them good or bad. And in this case, they fess up pretty quickly. I had been asking him what he thought the problem was and saying maybe he might need a tutor until he confessed in front of the teacher that he wasn't studying.

The kids are really excited they only have two days of school next week due to Thanksgiving. The holidays are approaching too quickly this year, and I am not ready for them.
