Passion fruit

Im obsessed with passion fruit and its one of the things I most miss from Brazil. My mom has to bring a few concetrated passion fruit juice every time she comes to visit! She also brought an amazing truffle chocolate that went along with our yummy dessert I made today: Passion fruit mousee with truffle chocolate! It was sooo good!!! Thank heavens for Zumba tomorrow! :)

Bella's second tooth to fall out

I picked up Bella couple days ago from school and she was soo excited to show me this necklace with a tooth pendant. She then said that her second tooth had fallen out and that the teacher had given her that to put her tooth in it. Yay, no drama with this one!

Bella's first tooth to fall out

What an event!!! It happened a couple nights ago when I was trying to get the kids ready for bed. Bella was brushing her teeth and I was brushing Jacks. All I remember is Bella screaming about her tooth, me looking at the tooth go down the sink into the drain and then screaming at Jared asking for help. Bella was crying so hard as she said over and over that her tooth was gone and that the tooth fairy would never come for her. I told Bella and Jack to go to the other room and wait there. To be honest, I thought the tooth was gone but then sooo hoped that Jared could find the tooth by taking apart the pipes. We looked, looked and Jared did find it! Oh, thank goodness!!! That little girl was soooo happy to see it! She ran to her room to get a book that my mom had bought for her about a tooth fairy tale and put her tooth into the little pilow to then put under her pillow for the tooth fairy. She woke up earlier than usual and came running into my room screaming about how the tooth fairy had left her money. She insisted in going to the store before school to buy the toy shes been wanting so bad! Oh, boy, that was drama, huh? I am just so glad this little girl has not been dramatized for life, haha ... I am so glad we were able to find that tooth! Thanks, babe! You were a hero that night!

Bugville

Today when we picked up the kids from the playroom at the gym they were so excited to show us a butterfly treehouse. I looked at it and saw this cool butterfly treehouse with a cup inside that had caterpillars in it. I thought to myself how fun would it be to get one of those and watch the whole cycle of caterpillars turning into beatiful butterflies so we went and got a kit. The kit contains the butterfly treehouse, instructional dvd and the mail in order form to get our 5 caterpillars and food in a cup. We are mailing our form out this week to receive it in 1 to 3 weeks. Im as excited as they are to get our caterpillars in the mail to start watching close the whole thing! We will keep you updated!:)
