My long running wobbly tooth finally fell out on Tuesday night.  It happened while I was in bed.  I woke up and placed it carefully under my pillow.  But in the morning it was gone and there was no money either!  What a nightmare.
I got over it pretty quickly on Wednesday though as it was our long awaited chocolate tasting day (as part of this terms subject matter, chocolate!).  It was lovely, we got to actually have a decent amount too.
I had my fist ballet class of the year as well on Wednesday.  I was sooooooooooo glad to be back, in fact i'd been prancing around the house for days beforehand.  Mrs Groves said I was brilliant this week too, the practice must have paid off.  We also got our certificates from last terms exams as well, must get Mum to go and get me a nice frame for it so it can go up in my bedroom.






















When we got home we had a big hunt for my missing tooth.  Dad finally found it under my bed, in a Scalextric box!  Awesome hunting skills Dad, I placed it safely under my pillow for a second time....
Thursday morning, the tooth had gone and there was money in it's place...result!
I made a really cool board game at school with Adrija.  I promised Mum and Dad they can play it next time there's a parents evening as I can't bring it home.
I had my school swimming lessons start again.  The letter home said we had to have proper swimming attire and not board shorts.  I think this means 'Speedo's' I haven't got any of those so I got packed off with my knee length dragon emblazoned finest instead.  Mum said to get school to ring her if there was a problem.  There wasn't.  I'd gone up a group since last time we went and i'm now mid way down the big pool.
When we got home we had scooter time trials up and down the road outside the house.
Yeah, we decided my new one was the fastest, although not by much!
Friday then, cool.
I had a good day at school though and got a special hand stamp for good behaviour.  
I did cross country during Golden Time in the afternoon and really enjoyed it.
I also completely and utterly lost my lunchbag.  This meant I had to have a hot school dinner....a jacket potato with beans as I didn't like anything else on offer.  When Dad came to pick me up we pretty much turned the whole school upside down looking for it...all to no avail.  I got quite upset about it, Dad assured me it would turn up.
Pah, my swimming lessons have stopped, i'm not happy about it and apparently I have to wait like nine weeks until I can start again?  Rubbish. 
It's given us more time for tea though.  This weeks friday speciality was bacon in ciabatta rolls.
They were lovely.
They were, so lovely in fact, I ate three, yes three of them!
I decided that the new Olly Murs song is my new favourite.  I made Dad get it on my Ipod and danced around the house to it pretty much all night.
I'm glad I went to Team Kennet I think......
We had a pretty weird weekend really.
Yeah, Saturday we sat around most of the morning while Mum and Dad did jobs around the house.
We snuggled up on the sofa and watched telly:

Then we headed out to town, Mum had to have her hair cut.
We went to the Entertainer while she was there, but Dad cracked after about 30 minutes and we went and sat in the hairdressers watching Mum get her hair cut and playing rock, paper, scissors on the comfy sofa.
We went to Mum's shop afterwards to get some new luggage.
I performed a number of very stringent test before we decided on what to settle for, i'm sure my help was invaluable in making an informed decision.
We were on a roll and living in the fast lane so we decided a trip to Tesco was the only way to keep the momentum running.
Oh yeah, awesome.  
Actually it was, Dad bought Just Dance 4 with his vouchers he got from work for Christmas...
.....and a packet of lovely cookies.
The Skylanders selection was rubbish though...so we went to Sainsbury's too!  My word, what a lot of shops in one day.  It was worth it though, I love Skylanders in case you hadn't heard?
Sunday was another similarly slow start....until the new washing machine was delivered.
Mum and I were seriously excited and I couldn't wait to cut the plastic off and take away the polystyrene bits.  Once Dad had connected it up we stuffed it full of clothes and let it go!
I put in some serious hours getting my new Skylanders up a few levels.  Oh, and Dad found my missing lunchbag, it was hanging on th e handlebars of my scooter in the garage...oops.
We went out for a lovely muddy walk in the afternoon, as usual we didn't want to go...
...but loved it once we'd got out there in the cold.
We came home and I decided I really wanted to get involved in the whole tooth fairy thing, so after a really good wobble, twist and a little help from mum it was out!






















There was a fair bit of blood which I did well to keep from my new white top I was wearing at the time.
So that was it, my first tooth out. I couldn't wait to go to school and show off about it!
Snow! On Monday morning!
Yes, how exciting.
We had a great snowball fight with the Desaume's before school even started which was cool as snow balls were banned in case there was a stone in any of them?
Pah, what a load of spoilsports.
Sadly it didn't last all that long.
But long enough to mean after school cross country club was cancelled this week......
