Happy Birthday Paige!!

Today is Paige's 9th Birthday! What a big girl she is becoming! She looked so pretty heading off to school today, all dressed in pink. I would post a picture, but I need Dakotah here to get it from the camera to the computer!!

Its such a happy day. Paige has been really healthy this year, and has gained more strides in school in the last 9 months than she did in the previous 3 years combined.

She's got the greatest little personality...she's so friendly and happy all the time. This year, she has learned to use the computer, and doesn't give us a break on it for a minute. As soon as we sit down, she comes over and wants to play on it. And she knows where to go to find the games she likes; she will point at the monitor to prompt it to the next screen, and can play lots of games at pbskids.org.

Lst night, she lost a tooth!! That's a big celebration for us, because her permanent teeth came in behind her baby teeth in the front, and she had to have them all pulled. Luckily, her permanents fell right into place, and she has beautiful teeth now.

We didn't find the tooth, just discovered a bit of blood around her mouth, and upon investigation, noticed it was gone. Most likely, she really got some calcium in her diet last night!

Today she has a day-long speech evaluation at school. Hopefully, we will see some results from it, and get some good suggestions...we need to get this kiddo talking!!
