All I want for Christmas is....

more money from my lost teeth!

Howie came in about 8:30 the other night hysterically excited that he had lost his tooth - his FIRST tooth, literally LOST it - he was pushing against it and it FLEW out of his mouth.

Luckly he was in his tent, so it was contained in an area and we found it shortly afterwords.

While we were looking for the tooth, Kiersten came out indicating that she, too had lost her tooth - but this was a special tooth - this was a tooth that was hanging around with undissolved roots because the other tooth didn't come in directly above it - but slightly - shark-wise...so when her tooth came out - she yanked the root & all.

I'm sure hers was worthy of more than the golden dollar coin she got for it, but Howie was just pleased as punch to come back downstairs 20 minutes later to see that the toothfairy, indeed, got the memo that he lost a tooth and had come to pay up!

Meanwhile -
the school brought in 2 tons of snow for the kids to run amuk in - as is evident in the flip flop, non jacketed wearing children, snow is just not something we in the suburb of Phoenix know how to dress for!!
