Just words, no pictures

I have pictures to post, just no time to post them.
We had the boys' b-day party at the Bowling Alley on Sunday afternoon. Megan stayed home with Kelly. We only had 4 kids (only invited 5), so it didn't get too crazy. Ryan was the high scoring bowler with 99 points (I think) and Jonathan came in 2nd with 98 (I think). As usual, the look on Jonathan's face was priceless when he realized he didn't win. Instead of cupcakes, we had birthday cookies from Central Market. The only cupcakes they had were girly looking.

Jonathan lost his first tooth yesterday. It fell out while he was eating a peach. I think the boys have 6 loose teeth between the 2 of them now. Apparently, Jonathan was questioning the tooth fairly theory to Don, wondering if Mom and Dad help out or not. I guess that's the problem with not losing your first tooth until you are seven, you are getting a bit old to believe. I've also been fielding more detailed questions about Santa, so we might have a little heart to heart about that come Christmas season. What the heck, we might as well tell them where babies really come from at the same time and get two tough conversations done at the same time.

Eric is showing symptoms of I Need To Go Back to School NOW. He has been a time bomb, and then the most lovable kid, and then he runs to his room and hides under the covers. I'm sure neither Don or I ever did this to our parents.

Will try to get pictures up soon

Macy set a trap for the tooth fairy one time because she was doubting the whole idea of it, too. She decided to put her tooth in a tin container that had a dolphin painted on the cover. Before she fell asleep, she looked at which way the dolphin's tail was pointing. THANKFULLY, the tooth fairy somehow picked up the tin, opened it, put the $ in, closed it and put it back so it was still facing the same way!! BTW - Macy didn't tell me about this trap until AFTER the tooth fairy passed the test!
