Polka Dot Day

January 22 was Polka Dot Day. I covered something with a polka dot piece of cloth. I'd been meaning to for a long time but this holiday really motivated me to finally do it.

We also celebrated my brother's birthday with the kids eating ice cream and watching "Paco videos."

And... Lucky's first loose tooth came out. He was very excited and Jr. Jr. was excited to share an older child's wisdom about rinsing the tooth and putting it under his pillow.

Lucky very carefully put it under the side of the pillow he doesn't sleep on so he wouldn't accidentally crush the tooth fairy. What a thoughtful boy.

Better Late Than Never

September 5 is Be Late for Something Day.  So why don't I finally blog about Jr. Jr.'s first loose tooth that came out in March of this year?  Sounds like a good idea, doesn't it?
When Nichole had her first loose tooth in 2012, it took months for it to finally come out.  With Jr. Jr., he found out his tooth was loose in the morning one day and that night it came out.

He was happy with a special note from the tooth fairy, too.
