There's been some firsts that really need to be documented (especially since motherhood stole my memory and left me with something resembling a kitchen colander instead)...
This big girl lost her first tooth...
The tooth fairy came and left some surprises...
 |
A fairy door with direct access for all fairies from FairyLand to our house!
(At some point I will get a tutorial and supplier list up so you too can assemble and make a customised fairy/elf door of your own)
|
 |
A teensy tiny fairy written note and the required gold coinage. (The note took multiple drafts and a hand cramp to write out that small but she thought it was so special).
|
That same big girl is now no longer in training...
No training wheels needed! I would post the video but I need to edit it first... maybe I'll get round to it eventually!
...and tooth number two happened only a short time later...
Ballet concert no.1 for the year has been danced (she attends two ballet schools so her next concert is in a couple weeks)... she was a beautiful snowflake in the Nutcracker production.
Here's a pre-concert shot (hopefully the professional photo's will arrive before Christmas - she looked so gorgeous in her white tutu on the night).
And the little Miss was SOOOO excited to get dolled up and watch her big sister dance on stage. It was so cute, every dancer that entered the stage prior to her sister was met with a head shake and a quite mutter of "nope, not Rara" ..."nope, not Rara" (Rara is her nickname for big sis) and then she leapt to her feet when she finally spotted the one she looks up to so much...

And yes...one day (hopefully soon) I will pull my finger out and get the tutorial done for these cupcakes - I've had loads of requests for it from near and far (the latest from a lovely SpaNGle* follower in Florida)... I will get there soon!!!
The day's are turning to night just far too quick and all the while the weeks continue to roll by and morph into months in what seems like a moment...
Is this what getting older is all about?

I'll be back soon I hope... 'tis the crazy season (but I absolutely LOVE it)!!!
