(S)milestones

Grace ran into our room EARLY this morning to let us know about a big event......she lost her first tooth! She told us she was laying in bed this morning and her tooth was really, really loose. So, she "used these two fingers" to take it out. She was shaking like a leaf from nervousness/excitement. She can't wait to use her tooth-pillow tonight!

Maybe she'll use any money she gets to go shopping at "The Gap"

She's already sticking her tongue in the space a lot......

The tooth in question.......

Halloween 2009

Can't believe it's that time of year already, but Halloween hit the Storm house last night. (I, unfortunately, spent the afternoon watching Michigan play one of its worst halves of football ever down in Champaign. So, I missed out on all the fun here. Not making that mistake again.) Anyway, Ashley got a few photos of the girls trick or treating.


Alison was a princess and Grace was a Barbie cheerleader.....
2 - 4- 6 - 8, Don't I look really great?

Alison was saying Chuck E. Cheese instead of trick-or-treat for a while....

Almost ready to go......but we're missing one thing.....

.......oh yeah, buckets to take home all their candy in.......

The first house of the night.......

What's behind door #2?..........

Alison dumping out her "haul".....

Look at all the candy.......I think I deemed Heath bars too rough on their teeth, so I ate those for them.....

One last hug for the night......
