Lost Tooth

 

 



McKenna lost her first tooth!!!
She was so brave. It had been bothering her for a few days. Scott had been working on it for a while with floss. That was not working so he got a pair of small pliers. She didnt even flinch. So BRAVE!!!!

Sense we are on the topic of McKenna. Here is a great story. Her teacher told me this yesterday while I was working in the class.
Last week McKenna beat up a boy on the bus. She scratched his face and gave him a fat split lip. Her teacher asked her, "McKenna did you do this to AJ?" McKenna said, "If I tell you will I get in trouble?" It took everything the teacher had not to laugh. Her teacher said "Well you might because we don't hit. Its not nice. Why did you hit AJ?" McKenna "He was hitting me and he wouldn't stop when I asked him to so I punched him." Her teacher told her not to hit again and next time tell the bus driver and move away from him. McKenna said ok and went on her way. Mrs. Burk told me that even though she is not allowed to say to the children "what comes around goes around." That fit this situation perfectly. McKenna was not reprimanded for her behavior, and I have not received a call from the principle. "what comes around goes around." had a silent victory. So there bullies!! I haven't told her this, but part of me is proud of her, for standing up for herself.
Miss you all we will see you all soon.

We where at bear lake over the 4th. While we where up there we took them to Minnetonka Cave. Mercedes was afraid that a bat would bite her. But the bats had already gone south. She then was upset because she would have liked to have seen one. Silly Girl! McKenna loved every minute of it. She even asked a few questions. Our guide seemed pleased to have someone ask something. Sam Sam found that if she yelled real loud it would come back to her. Echo Echo. She would laugh and laugh. This was great for Grandpa. But then it got to the point that the echo was no longer fun and she wanted down to run all over the cave. That was a challenge.

Hi All

Hey everyone!!

Sorry its been forever.

McKenna is loving Kindergarten. She did a diorama for school. She wanted to do unicorns but there hard to find, and take pictures of. So we did here second favorite thing The Peacock. Aunt Karen and "The Farmer" (This being Uncle Rick) have some. They love to go there and feed the horses apples. We took pictures of the peacock and Aunt Karen gave us some feathers.

Mercedes loves to pretend she is a peacock and struts around Karens house. After this adventure we went home and put together her Diorama. She is really proud of it. She did all the work. Well except for the feathers and the feet. We had to use the hot glue gun for that part.

We love you all.

The Cooks are leaving West Jordan

Yo Yo Its brother Scott, I'd like to shout out to all my relation. As everyone may know we are moving from West Jordan on the 8th of March, anyone that could help throw a box or two on a truck that day would not be turned away.
Also if there are any remaning items that don't belong to Scott or Angie in the home let me know if ya'll still want em. If not I have a BIG BLUE DUMPSTER in the drive way. and can dispose of said items, (No David you can not use the dumpster for items from your current house, work, truck, or person.)
We have a large swing on the patio that is up for grabs, there is no room on the new deck for it. We also have a lawn mower that is 4 years old and in good condition that is also free. Brother Scott never plans on mowing agian, ever ever agian. Love ya all. I'm out.

Well we are a little late for Christmas, but here we are.
The girls had a great day!
Mercedes got her Baby Born. This is a doll that crys and wets her diaper! (Along with the floor, counter, bed and whatever else she is sitting on! Yeah!)
McKenna got her Baby SkyWisher. This is a baby My Little Pony that talks and wiggles. She goes everywhere with Kenna.
Sami she got a Busy Ball Popper. This is a toy that pops balls out its top. She loves it!
Love you all hope everyone is well.
