Missing Tooth - Part 2

The Tooth Fairy is evidently afraid of Christian's leopard (Sampson) and bears (Big Bear, Rosie and Violet). She left a note for Christian last night saying that she couldn't come the night before because of his stuffed animals, they just scared her too much! So this is what she left last night: A little box with a picture of a smiley face missing a tooth for all his baby teeth and 2 gold dollar coins! Christian was so happy and excited he could hardly stand it! Yeah Tooth Fairy!!!! ;)

Pumpkin Carving

This year, Pumpkin carving wasn't an awful experience. On the Today Show I saw a little clip of fun and easy ways to carve pumpkins. It included power tools. Use a kitchen mixer beater, put it into a power drill like you would a drill bit, and WHALA! a fun (and a little bit messy at times) way to hollow out the inside of your pumpkin! As you will see below, we all had a lot of fun!

We were at Christian's friends house with his parents and his sister. Most of us got covered in pumpkin guts, but in the end, we had several wonderfully carved pumpkins!

Jakob making sure that Mommy is doing it right!

Of course, Mommy is the one who got the messiest! But, oh, I had fun!!!!

And poor Isaac, he sat there watching, just wanting to get his hands into that mess!

Missing Tooth!!!

After what seemed like weeks, Christian finally lost his top tooth! When it first was loose, Christian wanted to use pliers to yank it out. But once it started hurting when he wiggled it, that plan went out the window. The last few days his gums started looking funny and I could see the other tooth bud coming in behind it... So today we were at the park and Chrisitian wanted to take Isaac down the slide. At the bottom of the slide, Isaac's head came back and bonked Chris in the mouth, knocking that tooth right out! At first Chris was scared and didn't like the blood, but then the excitement hit! Here he is pointing at the hole in his head!

Now he is writing a letter to the Tooth Fairy asking to keep his tooth... He is also wondering, "What am I going to get from the Tooth Fairy?" ;0

Silly Boys

This is just a collection that I have of my boys and their silly faces, bodies, etc...

The next few pictures were taken when we went out to see my Dad go on a glider ride. We were out there for more than an hour, so they got a little bored, this is what became of their boredom...
"My muscles are bigger than yours!"

"How hard can I make Isaac laugh?"

Isaac. Isaac. Isaac. His version of the "mean baby face". It comes complete with the nose sounds and often very puckered lips.
