"Hey guys? Look at me!" "Hey, wait for me!" - Sabrina's new phrases crack me up. Her speech has gotten really good, very good at articulating what she wants, needs. She understands everything and can give a detailed account of her day. ;)

Libby's behavior has been out of control some days. It's usually in the evening. I know she is tired from school, activities and playing, but it seems pretty bad most days. We deteriorate to shouting and threatening consequences (no dessert, no toys, no books). She starts yelling, stomping her feet, rolling her eyes or even laughing. I know that deep down she is a good kid. She has been doing great at school. Why does she test us so much at home? 

The loose tooth has decided to hang on to the bitter end, leading the new permanent tooth to surface behind it already ("shark teeth"). So, we may be heading to the dentist to get that tooth out. Lovely...
