Max's big week




My first baby lost his first tooth! That thing has been hanging by a thread for days, but he was worried about it hurting if we pulled on it. Tonight JB said, "Here, let me give it another wiggle," and pluck! Out it came.


This was his prayer tonight at bedtime after tucking that tooth in the special place for the tooth fairy: "Please bless that tomorrow I can go to school and show everyone my lost tooth including my teacher and they can say 'Wow Max, that's so exciting!'"


Also in the past week, he learned to ride a bike without training wheels. We are so proud of how quickly he caught on. He just zips around now and even stands up while peddling.


Now a note about Benny: He wants to be just like Max but doesn't realize he's 2 1/2 years younger. First he wanted us to take his training wheels off too (he's so not ready!). Then he sobbed and sobbed tonight, asking us to pull his tooth out too.

Wow! How can our little Max be old enough to lose teeth and ride a bike standing up...you tell him to stop growing...his Aunt Suzy doesn't want to miss all the fun stuff.
