Another Tooth Missing and Crazy Hair Day!

There have been some very exciting things going on in the Taylor household lately. First, we went to the orthodontist with Asia and Ethan last month because they will both need braces eventually. Asia has lost more teeth than Ethan already, so Ethan had to work extra hard to get the rest of his 8 front teeth out. He had one more tooth to go and it was starting to get loose. We wiggled it and wiggled it and it wouldn't budge. Then one night I tried to yank it and he had a royal freak out! So I said we would have to go to the dentist to have it pulled. He had that happen before with his 2 front bottom teeth and it was not a very nice experience. He remembered that, so the next night as he was lying in bed, he started working on that tooth and he pulled it out all by himself! He said it didn't even hurt and it actually surprised him a little! So here's the tooth. He decided to put it in a little bowl of water and leave it on the counter this time. (That made it especially easy for the tooth fairy!) ;) He got to have 4 whole quarters for being so brave and pulling his own tooth out!
We also had Spirit Week at the school a few weeks ago. I only got a picture of Crazy Hair Day. They had crazy sock day, pajama day, backwards day, and school spirit day. It's always a fun week for the kids and I was able to go to muffins with mom with them on one of the days. That's always a special treat in more ways than one!

Here's Asia. She's so particular with her hair lately and only likes to do it herself. She let me make it a little crazy for her today though. It was pretty fun to do!

And Ethan always likes to go all out for this day:
AWESOME!!! :)

I CANNOT believe how big your kids are! Ethan and Asia are so grown up. I love the idea of the tooth in the water!
we never get to do crazy hair day- it looks fun.
You are such a great mom, I love all the holiday traditions :)
We will DEFINITELY have to have some fun together this summer. Bekah turns 8 on the 19th and wants to do a little sledding at Sandy Downs. I'll call you to see what you guys are doing :)
