Double Dental Extraction Night

Tonight during our read aloud time Kami decided she wanted to pull out her loose tooth...so she set to wiggling and twisting, proudly showing a bit of blood on her paper towel now and then...Then Porter decided it was time his loose tooth got some attention, too. I told them working on teeth while we read was a good thing to do as long as they were quiet. So I read and they both sat there very intent on their loose teeth. Soon Kami popped up with a triumphant grin holding out her tooth... then moments later, Porter produced his tooth. It was cute, and they both have a little baggie with their tooth nestled inside under their pillow awaiting the tooth fairy.



This was a cute picture...Ryan hurt his back yesterday during a scout service project, and has been really sore...so he decided to lay down on the floor in hopes to relieve his back, and listen to our book, and soon after this is what I found!



Right now we are reading the book Caddie Woodlawn while we study the Civil War. We've also read Moccasin Trail and Across Five Aprils these past couple months. I would highly recommend any of these books if you are looking for some enjoyable reading and want to learn a lot too! Our entire family has loved them all....especially because they have made history come alive for us.

Those toothless grins are adorable! Poor Ryan and his back. Tell him to get better soon! Preferably before turkey day :-)
