Ian and Caleb

Ian....... because of his newest achievement (if you can call it that?)

He lost his first tooth last week! Both his bottom teeth have been loose for months, but he won't wiggle them. Then one day he bit into a bagel and knocked it pretty loose. So after that I got him to let me wiggle it until one day it wiggled right out! John told him what we did with our teeth when we were little (no mention of the actual words "tooth fairy") - he put his under his pillow and got a quarter from it, I put mine in a glass of water on the kitchen table and there was a dime in the morning. So Ian decided he wanted to put it in a glass of water, and maybe it would turn into a dime. All evening he kept watching and saying he thought maybe it was almost turned into a dime. He was excited in the morning to find the tooth gone and a dime in it's place. I think he still believes it actually turned into a money :) He's been excited to show everyone!

......and Caleb, because he cracks me up! He's such a funny boy. He's such a toddler - he sings and plays and dresses up however he wants and thinks the world is his (Levi doesn't really appreciate that, since he's also a possessive toddler....). But I love to watch Caleb, and see how happy he is. He sings as he plays in his sweet high-pitched voice. So, some pictures of his silliness from this month.

So do you think they're related? Within a few days of each other both Ian and Caleb tripped outside, missing for the most part their knees and elbows and both landing on the same part of their face! You can't see Ian's as much, we were on the way to school when he fell and so he went into class with his mouth bleeding inside and a very fat lip. The swelling went down some by the time I took this picture and it wasn't as scraped on the outside as Caleb's.
