How Not to Pull a Tooth

Seth and Mark both thought that it was a great idea to tie dental floss around Seth's loose tooth and shoot it out with a Nerf gun. I, for one, am glad Seth chickened out.

Knocked Out

Poor Seth had a tooth knocked out at school! Another student was running in the hall and ran straight into him. It was loose but not ready yet!

How a six year old boy does Mad Libs...

Seth at Six

Sweet Six

I can't believe our precious boy is six-years-old. He's just as cute and sweet as ever. Happy birthday my love. I hope all of your wishes and dreams come true!

Library Boy

This summer Seth got his very own library card and he was so excited and super proud. We participated in the summer reading program and he won lots of neat prizes. We have been making weekly trips to the library and he has read so many books.

Huh?

"Don't roll your eyes."

"I was just practicing."

First Day of Kindergarten

 

 

Last Day of Kindergarten

Wow! Where does the time go? Seth has learned so much this year. I am one lucky mom to be blessed with a sweet, smart and funny kiddo. I am more proud of him and love him more every day! Now on to summer fun!

Toothless

One night, while I was staying with Mark in the hospital, Seth spent the night with Stacy, Bobby and Trey. Seth woke up in the middle of the night because his tooth had fallen out. I'm so glad he didn't swallow it or choke on it! The next night he wrote the Tooth Fairy another letter. He asked her if she was the only tooth fairy or if there was a team of them. She let him know that she was the only true tooth fairy, but that she had a few other fairies she had trained to help out if she were to get sick or go on vacation. He got some stickers and another "Gold Doubloon."

Lost!

Seth finally lost his first tooth. It had been loose for a while but he never could bring himself to pull it. By the end it was dangling by a thread. We were sitting on the couch watching a movie and Seth suddenly was shouting, "Mom! Mom! My tooth fell out." There was much excitement and celebration. Seth wrote the tooth fairy a note asking if he could keep his tooth and also what her name was. He also drew a picture of her. That night he put the tooth under his pillow and when he woke up there was a "gold doubloon" (a golden dollar) and a Lego Minifig. There was also a note telling him he could keep his tooth and that her name was Lucinda. (Get it Lucinda - as in Loose Cinda - as in Loose tooth?) Sigh. I cannot believe how fast he is growing up.

Where is my tiny boy?

On the Loose

Seth's tooth is so loose, but it's not going anywhere if he has anything to say about it.

Loosey Goosey

 

Seth had been complaining about a sore tooth and my first thought was, "Oh no! Another cavity!" I was planning on making an appointment at the dentist. When we were brushing his teeth one morning we noticed the slightest bit of pink when he spit. I also noticed that the two bottom teeth have a larger than usual gap in them. Upon closer inspection, he has not one, but two loose teeth. He has been so jealous of other kids in his class who have lost teeth and is super excited. I thought it was too soon for this. Just another way our baby is growing up!

Sigh

I found this old picture on the internal memory of my camera. My baby is growing up too fast.

First Day of Kindergarten

I can't believe that Seth started kindergarten yesterday. I feel like the last five years have flown by and my little baby has grown up so fast. We are so proud of our little boy!

Someday

Preschool Graduation

My baby is growing up and there is no way to slow it down!! We all had a tear (or two) in our eyes as we watched his preschool graduation.
