Snaggle Tooth and Getting Some Exercise


OK, big news first. Riley is an even bigger snaggle tooth. He bit down on a Honey Comb at lunch (Thursday) (yes, I sent cereal in a bag as a side item in his lunch box -- per his request) and his other front tooth got very loose, so he pulled it HIMSELF! Go Riley!!


Last week, I took Reagan for a jog in the jog stroller. I made the mistake of saying, "Mommy needs to get some exercise!"
The following interrogation ensued:

Reagan: Where is your exercise? What color is it? What does it look like? Did you lose it? Which way is your exercise? I draw a picture of it (on her Dora magnadoodle).

I was worn out from trying to talk and jog!

Also, I wanted to let you know how grateful Riley is that I told him the truth about the tooth fairy. A couple of days after our conversation, he came to me and said, "I am so glad that you told me about the tooth fairy because I really wanted to know and you told me."

Cute Reagan phrase: "I did that to-ma-rah (tomorrow)."
Meaning: I did that yesterday (actually anytime prior to the present, not necessarily the day before)

Reagan is really enjoying taking gymnastics at our church. She looks forward to Thursday afternoons. With great pride she claims she can do a headstand. Here are a few pics of our little performer.

Now for a little patting my own back. Will talked me through repairing the kids' potty. I explained the problem to him and he got the parts for me and I replaced the tube thing from the tank to the wall and the white tower thing inside the tank. I was very proud.
