First Tooth!
Yup, Max lost his first tooth today at breakfast. It's in his tooth pillow now, along with a token payment from the tooth fairy (not as much as he's been negotiating for, mind you, since his friends' tooth fairies are
loaded, but with a small bonus for the first timer).
Later, since he was staying home from school anyway, he dressed up "to go to a meeting, like Daddy." Click on the picture for the closeup where you can see the missing tooth.
| In Arts and Crafts news, things finally settled down enough for us to get out the electronics kit he got for Hanukkah. After I worked with him through the first ten projects -- lights, fans, that sort of thing -- he's actually been doing some of them on his own and some with some coaching from Woody. |
| Max found a few beads at school, in the playground, and decided to make them the centerpiece of a gift for Momma. So we went to the new bead store, and the craft store, and loaded up with stuff, and he put this together. (Aside from a few kibbitzs, he art-directed this himself) Now I know how to crimp seal things, and we have proper bead wire, so I suspect we'll be doing more of this sort of thing. |
