Tooth Fairy

The day finally came where the tooth fairy owed our house a visit!  Cruz had been working on his loose tooth for quite some time and most of his friends had already lost a tooth so he was getting anxious to lose his first tooth.  He spent all day wiggling and wiggling and before he went to bed he was questioning what would happen if he lost it while he was sleeping.  Or even worse what happened if he swallowed it!   Well I laid him down and probably half hour later he comes walking out of his room with a strange expression so I asked him what was wrong and he held out his hand and in it was a little tooth!  He was so excited, daddy was out looking for a new vehicle that night so he had to FaceTime him right away to tell him the news.  And he wanted to call grandma and Grandpa and send a picture to almost anyone and everyone he could think of.  So cute, I love that kid!  Anyways from what I hear the going rate for the first tooth is $5.00 and $1.00 for every tooth after that.  The tooth fairy was right on because sure enough the next morning there was a $5.00 bill sitting under the cup on the counter that once held his tooth :). Cruz wanted to display is $5.00 bill for all to see but luckily I convinced him to just put it in his piggy bank.  None of his other teeth are loose as of right now so the tooth fairy will have a break from our house for awhile!  What a fun experience!

Typical Boy

I think I finally have a little boy that is going to be more like the "typical boy".  Normally when someone finds out I'm a mom to 3 little boys I get the concerned look, the tilted head and they usually say something like "wow you must be busy" or "you must have your hands full!"  Up until a month ago I would respond with "it's not that bad, my boys are very good and I wouldn't trade it for the world"  I also have told people that my boys are not "normal" boys, as they aren't always busy, they aren't always causing trouble and they are always rambunctious....then Hudson started to walk.  This kid has no fear and is ready for anything put in front of him.  He climbs things Cruz and Levin never would have, he dunks his head in water (which Levin still won't at almost the age of 4), and he's very strong headed so me telling him "no" like I did with the other two just makes it that much more fun for him to figure out a way to do what he's not supposed to be doing!  

Good thing he's cute and still really good most of the time :)
