My tooth came out!

Remember how my tooth was loose? Well, it fell out Friday at school! See?

Can't see it? Here, try this one:

Unfortunately, we're not sure what happened to the tooth itself, but the tooth fairy came and left me some stickers anyway.
And now, the OTHER bottom one is loose too...

I'm growing up so fast...

I've had two pretty big milestones this week that I wanted to share with you all. First, I started my new school, and I'm in the PRE-K class! Can you believe I'm almost ready to go to kindergarten next year?!? I'm so good at recognizing letters and numbers, and getting better at writing. Soon I might be reading. In the meantime, my artistic skills are developing nicely too. Here's a picture I drew at school the other day of me and Mami and Daddy. (Lela isn't in it because, according to what I told Mami, it's the day we all went to the day we went to Weeki Wachee. Daddy is supposed to be "fixing something" and - as I pointed out to Daddy - I generously "gave him hair.")

My other big news - are you ready for this? - is that one of my teeth is loose! We all thought I wouldn't lose my baby teeth for quite a while longer, but my bottom front tooth is certainly wiggling around and wanted to get out of my mouth. Taking pictures of it is hard, just like when I was a few months old... They're a little blurry, but hopefully you can see that front one that's all crooked and dancing around in there:

Nonetheless, I still have my stunning smile!

We'll keep you posted on the fate of Mr. BraveTooth...

Shalom, Kol Tuv.

Today was my last day at B'nai Israel School. (Lela's too, but she's only been there a few months, I've been there almost three years.) Mami came for our last Shabbat, we're going to miss that a lot.

(I hope I don't forget all those great Hebrew songs...)

We took the opportunity to get some pictures with my teachers, whom I will miss very much.

Here's Ms. Debby, she's the principal.

And you know Ms. Jenifer by now, I'm sure. She's my favorite, she's been my teacher (on and off) for my whole time at B'nai! I know I'll see her again outside of school, but it'll be hard to have a different teacher.

Here's Mr. Joe. I had a great year with him too. He doesn't let me get away with any of my usual stuff, but he also gets my sense of humor and we laugh a lot.

Ms. Patie was my teacher at summer camp this summer and we had some fun times together too.

This last picture is with Ms. Adriana. She was my teacher for a while when I was two, and she's been Lela's teacher lately, but I still love getting to see her. She speaks Spanish, too! (I would not share my challah with her, no matter how much I like her!)

Thank you all for so many wonderful memories, for teaching Resli and Lela so many great things, for helping Resli grow up so much. We'll miss you. Shalom.

Ribbit

We got a new rug and shower curtain for my bathroom today. Isn't it awesomely adorable?

(Not as adorable as I am, I know, but the only time there would be a picture of me AND this stuff would be when I'm on the potty, and we know you don't want to see that!)

Getting ready for commencement

Tomorrow is summer commencement at UF, and Mami is escorting a PhD student. That means she gets to wear her fancy regalia (you know, a robe), and it comes with a fancy hat called a tam.

Of course, I wanted to try it on:

And then Lela wanted to try it on too.

Do you think if we get PhDs one day we'll get to wear a tam??

Sweet Publix goodness

We just dig those Publix cookies!

Yummy!

Seriously, why would anyone shop anywhere else?!?

Helping Mami with her work

Mami has a lot of work to do this summer since she's taking over the coordination of the lower division Spanish program. She had to write seven different syllabi!

I thought I'd help her out with the one for the advanced review class - don't you agree with my changes?

Lela looked on and thought, 'Ooh, that's nice work Resli...

... but I prefer me some Mickey!"
