I just got my computer back after a service, so I am enjoying catching up on everyone's blogs!
We have had a wonderful few days just hibernating at home. Lots of books have been read, games have been played, and new rooms have been enjoyed!
I am so happy to report that the boys' room is finally finished! We put a book rack by Matthew's bed (not pictured) on Monday and closed this chapter. I must say that the room really looks great, and I am thinking about moving in because it is so much fun in there! I hear the boys playing basketball all day every day in their room.
Many of you who read this blog know that I have a huge disgust with all things teeth related. The day after Christmas, Matthew told me that he bit down on something funny and his tooth hurt. I asked him where, and he touched his first molar and half of it moved with his finger! Gross! I told him to finish the job and he was able to successfully remove it. He then started thinking of all the things that the tooth fairy could bring him. At this point, I was having "Magic Fairies Who Enter our Home At Night To Bring Gifts" overload and I told him not to expect much. After he went to sleep, I found this note under his pillow complete with a picture of him holding the tooth fairy's hand: "Dear The Tooth Fairy, I know you give everyone money. But will you cast a spell on my tooth so it will turn into a Madden '08 Nintendo D.S. Card? I know you are very magical, and I know Santa just came. But I don't care. You are a very nice fairy, and that tooth I lost was a very special tooth so can you give me a very special present?
Sinceraly, Matthew P.S. Sorry about the long fly up. (making reference to his new top bunk) Thank you.

I'd love to see a picture of the book rack and hear where you got it. We'll be putting Gracie & Katie in bunk beds soon and space is tight all around our house. I'd love for Gracie to have a space just for her chapter books that could be near her top bunk. thanks!
That boy doesn't read all those books for nothing....sounds like another lawyer on your hands...
Hi Elizabeth! I sure do remember you -- you came to my third birthday party!!
I, too, have kept track of you through our parents' exchange of Christmas letters. Looks like our girls are about the same age (mine born April 04), but I can't imagine having two older boys! It looks like you have a beautiful family and home. I pray God continues to bless you!

Oh, and PS -- Go Illini! I was impressed to see an Illinois chair in the picture! :)
