A few weeks ago on a Tuesday, Marc told me that one of teeth was really loose. Sure enough, one of his top, front teeth was loose. A few days went by and it go looser. I told him to take a big bite of dinner and it would probably come out. He told me that he wanted to to come out at school so he could get another tooth necklace. Friday rolled around, and it still hadn't come out. I was in his class for lunch and the rest of the afternoon that day. While he was eating lunch he came over to me and told me that it hurt to bite his sandwich. I told him to pull his tooth out. He said "NO!". So, we finished his sandwich, spent the next couple of hours doing school work, an still nothing. Snack time came around. I figure it would come out while he ate the carrots I packed him. ;-) Nope. He came over to me whining that it hadn't come out yet. I told him it was now (to get the necklace) or at home over the weekend, that the tooth was not going to stay in until Monday. He whine at me more, so I grabbed hold of the tooth an pulled it! Go Me!! It gives me shivers every time I think about it, but it was almost out any way. A week later, his other top front tooth was loose. I tried to get him to let it come out at home, but yet again, he wanted ANOTHER necklace. He got up in the morning an it was SO loose that it turned in circle as he was talking! Eeewww!!! I even sent a baggie an a paper towel with him in the car pool car, just in case. When I picked him from school that day, this is how he looked:
Samantha's hair has started getting really long, so I decided it was time to start playing with it. :-) The first thing I tried was a simple braid an the base of her head. I have always wanted to learn to french braid. When I was in high school I always begged one of my friends to french braid my hair for me since I couldn't do it. While to talking to a friend of mine, she showed me the basic how-tos of french braiding. So, one night while Samantha was sitting on my lap snuggling, I decided to give it a shot. It actually came out half-way decent for the first time! :-)
My little Princess is cute with her hair down or up. :-)
As most of you know we had the chest cold with fever go through our house. Marc had it first, and his was mostly gone within 48 hours. Then Samantha got it. Her fever went away 2 times and then came back. It finally stayed away the third time around. When she was mostly healthy, I got it. :-( One of the days when we were home sick, Samantha fell asleep while she was eating her lunch.
During Christmas break, Marc was supposed to go on a day with Grandma. Well, our house happened to have gotten a tiny flu bug, so his day got postponed. Well, Marc had mid-winter (I prefer to call it end-of-winter) break. So, we decide that it was a good day to have the day rescheduled to. Since it was cold out, that kind of limited the possibilities. They decided to go bowling and then to Chuck E Cheese for lunch and some games.
Even though we had a rough couple of weeks with sickness an Marc being gone for work, it was still a good month. I hope you enjoyed looking at my cuties as much as I do! :-)
