Drewby Too!

Drew was standing and watching his big brother get pictures taken of his lost teeth. So he says, "Drewby too!" He took his binky out and tried to show me his teeth so I could take a picture!

All I want for my Birthday is my 2 Front Teeth!

Yesterday, Ethan and I went into the bathroom to wash his hands after school. He looked up into the mirror and of course, my gazed followed his and much to our surprise, his snaggle tooth was gone! It seemed that it was hanging on by threads for a week, but it must've lost it's grip! Ethan said, "Where's my tooth?" I told him he must've eaten it. His first response was, "Do I still get paid?" I told him I'd work that out with the tooth fairy. He says, "You ARE the tooth fairy." He knew what business needed to be taken care of at that point! The last tooth he lost, he asked if he could get $19 for his tooth. That happened to be how much money it costs for him to get a BEN TEN watch, a toy/watch that he's wanted for awhile. So, no, he won't get $19, but his tooth is still worth something. I just don't have to throw it in the garbage. It's been disposed of for me!

dollhouse pic that didn't post last time

Every boy needs a dollhouse...

...full of helpless dolls in distress! Spiderman and superman were on duty last Saturday when this large mansion in the pleasant view subdivision of Missoula, Montana was ransacked by a band full of dirty rotten "bad guys." Drew and Ethan enjoyed my childhood doll house as a place for their superheroes to practice being superheroes. They played a couple of hours out in the sunshine while I sat on the patio, burned my shins and read nutrition logs of my clients....riveting action! Glad the dollhouse is getting some action since I don't have any little girls wanting to play house. This will do!

Giggle-o-nite


This superheroes weakness isn't kryptonite....it's giggle-o-nite! Big brother was making up silly words and it hit the infamous "funny bone" on Drew-man. He couldn't stop giggling! He'd toss his head back, giggle left and right, take a deep breath and start all over again! This went on for about 5 minutes which is a long time for small abs!

This calls for some zzzzz's

This is what happens after an eventful week like his! He crashed for an afternoon nap. I just thought it was cute how he had his hands folded in peace.

Eventful Week for Mr. E


Ethan had an eventful week. Starting Monday, he celebrated his "unbirthday" at school. It's nice of his teacher to allow the summer babies to have a birthday party in honor of them during the school year. We brought rice crispy treats made with cocoa crispies to share and he got to wear a birthday crown (in the picture) all day. Yesterday, the Kindergartners had a safari day at school. They've been learning about the safari environment as well as animals on the safari. Then, each classroom collected boxes and paper bags to make safari huts. The kids made binoculars and safari hats and toured the classrooms. Last night, Ethan lost his 3rd tooth. The other one on top is hanging loose too. Pretty soon Ethan will be toofless in front! A busy week for such a small guy! Although, he is finishing up his Kindergarten year and will be turning 6! I can't believe it!
