One Tooth Down...

Guess who lost his first tooth?!  Yippee!!  Carter was so excited to finally lose that wiggler on the bottom row.  His permanent tooth had almost completely grown in by the time that baby fell out was forcibly pulled out by yours truly.  I couldn't take it anymore.  Now we've got two loose ones on the top row that are on their way out.

Carter was super-excited to see that the Tooth Fairy brought him $5 AND a Lego Mini-Figure.  She just seems to know what boys like.  :-)


Two Birthdays Are Better Than One

We celebrated Sister's & Grampy's birthdays when Mimi & Grampy were in town recently.  Any excuse for cake & margaritas around here!  
 The Birthday Mibes.
 The boys didn't want to be too far away from that cake!

 Davis & Grampy doing a puzzle that Sister brought back from Spain.  Fun!

 No birthday (of Grampy's) would be complete without a visit to Black-eyed Pea.

  We tried to celebrate at a cool new restaurant, Schoolhouse Kitchen, but were told we could not be seated until 10PM.  We decided to pass on that because we figured we need to put the boys to bed at some point.  We had a great time sampling beers at the 2nd choice place & were happy to be home before 9PM.
 Three cheers for beers!  Or, in Grampy's case, Cherry Cider.
Sad Sister, with Eric showing off his artistic skills with chalk.

We had a yummy breakfast in Olde Town & learned a new use for oranges. Good times were had by all!

Surprises From Mimi

Mimi almost always tucks surprises into her suitcase when she visits, and boy were these boys excited!  She has been growing their Itty Bitty collection from Hallmark.  (You should probably buy some Hallmark stock, Mom.)  
Keep your eyes closed...

Okay, open!

I got a really sweet Willow Tree mother holding her two little boys.  Love it so much.  Thanks, Mom!
The boys were thrilled with their new Star Wars Itty Bittys and Davis insisted on taking a group pic of them.  He's a collector through and through.
