He was here, and then he wasn't

I can sum up this weekend in a few words: Short but Sweet and now, a tad Sad Daddy {Nic} decided to drive directly from Arkansas after working a 16 hour day & 'sleeping in until 1 am' to be able to come home and see us for just as long as he could before leaving for the month long Wisconsin job. He arrived Saturday night at around 6 pm, we had family dinner, got the kids some sneakers for gym, woke up and ran some errands, and then he left at 12 noon as the kids and I were leaving for Juliette's cheer pictures & game. :( Instead of being sad about him NOT being here, I am rejoicing that he WAS here. I love my husband so, so much & so do the kids. He's the completion of our family (well, technically Noah will be but you get the idea) He completes us. After a very LONG day with running to Walmart for last minute black pants & white long sleeved shirt for under Julez' uniform, to going across town for individual & then team pictures, then racing to get a quick lunch before the hour long {COLD!} game. The Packers kicked butt in a 19-0 shutout and the girls were SO cold they got to wear their jackets. It was quite windy and you'll notice in some of the solo pics her squinty face.. LOL They aren't flattering, but what kind of mom would I be not to share? You'll also notice Cayleigh who was bundled up nice and warm on the sidelines. As we were all hanging out down in the den Juliette was sitting, biting on a plastic lid trying to get it off of the little ball thing she got out of the vending machine thing. Well, she suddenly springs up, panicked and jumping/squealing/nearly in tears and THROWS something at me. I search and find it - a tooth. Her mouth bleeding, she looks at me and I realize this is the FIRST tooth she actually lost naturally! So she now has two gone on the top, one on the bottom..and she's as CUTE as can be. If you'd like a Cheerleading wallet let me know (if I have enough). Thankfully she still had the extra tooth in the pic ;)
