The toothfairy has been working overtime at our house this year! Since March, Ethan has last 5 teeth! Both his middle bottom ones, and the top FOUR middle ones. I don't know how this kid eats! The bottom ones have started growing in, but only one has on the top, and that sucker is HUGE. The dentist wasn't kidding when he said his big people teeth are giant!

Yesterday he lost the latest tooth, he was just standing here talking to me, and it popped out. The toothfairy is not very sneaky, and woke him up....oops!! She also has a hand that looks just like mine...amazing, yes?

 
We also had chinese yesterday for lunch, well, Ethan had noodles with veggies and butter, but it was pretty close :) Watching him try to eat with chopsticks was hilarious. He ended up with one in each hand somehow.

Where does the time go....

I cannot believe that I have a second grader!! Seven years old and a second grader scares me because I actually remember being that old, so I better be careful what I do now, since he may remember it. I had Sister Pancreasious and I got pink glasses that year, big old plastic framed pink glasses. I was so cool.

Ethan has Mrs. Kristek this year, and so far he really likes her. She has 3 kids in LEAP herself, so I feel that she will know what to do with him more than previous teachers. He's excited to start LEAP this week, it's at a new school this year, but with the same teacher. He only has one kid from last year's first grade class in class this year, but he has recess with a lot of his friends from last year.

 Robot backpack and ninja lunchbox this year :)

First day of school cake...it looks a bit messy but he loved it, and it tasted great! (Don't tell him, but I made it healthy - eggbeaters and applesauce ha ha!)
