Hangar Time

With Lennard off work, we spent another morning at the hangar.  Emma was at school, so Ben got some one-on-one time with us.  

Benny and his electronics...

 We bought a couch off the buy and sell last night, so Lennard and Ben got to try it out.  We've now moved it upstairs so that the kids have somewhere to sit and watch movies.

More Paint

Lennard took the day off work and as soon as the kids were dropped off at school, we headed out to the airport and started painting the hangar.  I worked on the upstairs of the mezzanine so that it would be done before the kids got there and Lennard did the outside of the mezzanine. 

That didn't take too long to do, so then we pulled out the workbench, took down the cupboards and bulletin board and started painting that wall too!  We painted until we ran out of paint and managed to get it all done before we had to get the kids from school!

We brought the kids out after school and managed to get everything put back/up by the early afternoon.  It's really changed the look of the hangar.  Now we'll have to go buy more paint so that we can start on the West wall.  We won't do the North wall or the ceiling until summer time when we can get the trailer out of the hangar.

Another Tooth!

Emma lost her second tooth tonight!  It had been more and more wiggly throughout the week and she really wanted me to pull it, but it was so tiny that the dental floss (waxed) just kept sliding off of it.  I finally grabbed some toilet paper and pulled... and it popped out!  Hooray for Emma!

Lennard's Dream

Ever since we built the hangar, Lennard has wanted to have a projector so that he could show a huge movie on the wall.  Well, tonight, his dream came true.  He borrowed a projector and we watched movies... we started with One Six Right, but quickly traded it for Top Gun!  His grin couldn't have got any bigger!  When I put the kids to bed in the trailer, he was still watching (and grinning)!

Paint

We started painting the hangar tonight!  The kids were thrilled to get to help.  Ben did more dancing than painting, but it definitely kept us entertained!  It's amazing how different the front door looks.  I'm looking forward to seeing the entire hangar done... just not looking forward to all the work involved to do it!  We were pretty stiff and sore tonight.

The Tooth Fairy Visited

It was such a fun morning when Emma discovered that the tooth fairy had come in the night!  Even better was that she'd left a toonie!  Emma did get told that the tooth fairy only gives that much for a first tooth though!  So fun seeing how excited she is - especially to go to school and show everyone!

Emma Lost a Tooth!

Emma's tooth has been wiggly for quite a while now, but it finally came out tonight!  She asked me if I would pull it (yikes!) and after seeing how loose it was, I decided to try.  Thankfully, it popped right out without too much effort.  Emma was SO excited!  I found the little tooth holder that B&T had sent her and she loved getting to put her tooth in the little pouch and find a special place to put it in her room so the tooth fairy could find it.  It almost made me a little sad to see her losing a tooth... she's growing up so fast!

See her tooth?!
