Landon's Such a Boy!

This kid is crazy!  He is so wild and such a boy, it's awesome!  He has more owies right now than I can shake a stick at!  He is covered in scrapes and bruises.  He hasn't wiped out on his bike in days, but he continues to fall, skid, and crash on the pavement due to running, and being silly.  Several of the scrapes are from the bike, and they are healing.  Like his chin, which I forgot to photograph!  

Then on Sunday morning, he awoke to tell me. . .

"Mom, I think the tooth fairy is coming tonight."

"Oh, I doubt it."

"No, HE has too!" (as he wiggles his first loose tooth!)

Okay, well first off, it's a HE because we jsut saw "Tooth Fairy" at the theater.  So Landon thinks his tooth fairy is a dude.  Cool.  Second, he is way ahead for a tooth loosing schedule!  I thought I had a few more months.  He is so excited, and as  am I for him, but I am going to miss his sweet baby tooth smile.  It changes once those large adult teeth come in, and your kid is still 6.  Oh well.

All day Sunday he kept wiggling it and showing everyone.  When it was time for bed, he was so upset that it hadn't come out yet.  Poor kid!  It wasn't that loose, so I figured we had a few days, even weeks before it would come out.  Then this morning, he says so matter of fact, "Mom, will you just pull it out?"

Really!?? I told him I would try, and with one little pull, it came out.  And I barely tried!  He screamed, "OW!" and then added, "that didn't hurt that bad! Can I see it??"  Okay, weirdo.

Then came the blood, 'cause it really wasn't quite ready.  He panicked a little but then, loved it, and thought it was so cool that he had this funny space between his teeth, and the rest of the day hs has been checking himself out in the mirror to see the hole and see if there is more blood.

He is the best boy ever.  We are so blessed to have him around!  Girls are so not like this.

Leah still hasn't lost any teeth and she's 6 1/2!

I just love Landon! He is such a funny kid! I don't know what Isaac is going to do w/out preschool this summer!!
Its nice that your little boy is a true boy...through and through. Well, except the part about being afraid of dogs....but he;ll grow out of that! Let's just hope your boy doesn't end up as an expensive boy with medical bills from all his wild ways!

Happy Birthday Catelyn!!!

Happy Birthday Catelyn!!!     Yesterday was you last day as a 6 year old.  Here we go for 7!!!

The Opposite of Christmas Morning

We are having the opposite of Christmas morning at our house.  No toys.  We have one of these for storing toys: And several of these for the same reason: And last night the kids thought dumping them out for the sake of dumping toys would be fun.  This is a major rule breaker in our home.  I have had problems with this in the past, (even Mykalee knows this) and i have told them if it happens again, all the toys will disappear. And last night, after I found out what they had done, the toys have been grounded.  FOR A WEEK.  I hope it's as devastating as possible, so that they will learn I am serious when it comes to dumping toys out. {Also, Brooklyn is the only one who is exempt from this, as she was in bed.  Innocent.} On a side note, we did get the kids this on Friday.  It was time.  They seem to love it.

Catelyn--The Birthday Girl!

She knew.  I told her that she was getting a dress for her 8th birthday.  We tried some on, and fell in LOVE with the one we ended up surprising her with!  Doesn't she look too grown up?   I teared up as I watched 12 more years flash before my eyes as I saw her in this mini-wedding dress.  But it was the one for her.  We knew it. With Grandpa Dean's passing, we received special permission {which Kyle didn't like to have to ask for, because in the church handbook, it specifically says "Members should not ask for special permission to baptize their children. . .blah, blah blah....*Oh!! not that I am making fun of the handbook.  I just don't what it says exactly* I argued back that this was a rare exception, and we should at least ask. {Also, not as rare as I thought-- as I found out Friday night -March 18- that the family who had a viewing going at the same time as ours, at Coltrin's, had a baptism and a funeral in the same day as well! ...
