Zack lost his first tooth last week! Well, actually he removed it. We were having lunch and he didn't want to eat his sandwich because he said his tooth hurt. When I looked, one of his baby teeth was bleeding and loose. We figured it would be a couple days before it came out...should have known better with that kid! The next day, he said it was bleeding again. A few minutes later he came up to me yelping that "Part of my tooth came off!" Well, it was the whole thing, and I said, "Oh, it fell out already!" He says, "No, I chomped it with my other teeth because it had blood on it." Apparently he didn't like it in there and bleeding so he worked it out with his top teeth. I don't think we'll have any worries about him being freaked about losing teeth!
In other tooth news, Mia has another molar coming in. Unfortunately, she gets fevers with her teeth, so she's been pretty crabby the last couple of days.
We went camping with a group from church a couple weekends ago, and the kids had a blast. The weather wasn't the greatest...it rained from Friday night until Saturday morning, and then it was in the upper 80's and humid, but we had fun anyway. I had a couple of "camping revelations" while we were there.
#1. I will never attempt to use air mattresses for the kids again. We wound up borrowing some bunk bed cots, and they worked unbelievably well. The kids were excited to have their own beds, and everyone/everything was kept dry because it was off the floor. We're going to have to get some of our own!
#2. Packing everything in Rubbermaid totes was the best idea I've had in months, so I'll be doing that from now on.
#3. We need a bigger tent. Ours is pretty big (three rooms, sleeps six adults) but with 4 kids and gear it's a tight squeeze.
I'll get pictures posted soon!
