Tooth Fairy

When Tate has a loose tooth there is no way that you are touching it. Two nights ago his second loose tooth was just hanging by a thread, but of course you can't touch it. So we are all done brushing his teeth for the night and Tate goes to spit and he see blood. Looking in his mouth we find his tooth is missing. Unfortunately the water is running and I think that it went down the drain. Now raises the problem of how will the tooth fairy find it. Quick thinking mom says that the tooth fairy has extra special vision and she can spot loose teeth anywhere. The next day after he sees the money the questions don't stop. We have "how does she get the money that she puts under your pillow" and "why do I never see or hear her". The later was easy to answer but the first still has me reeling for an answer. If you have one let me know!!

Will's hockey team had a game the other night. The games are a little better to watch when we are not getting slaughtered! This was a close one, the score was zero to one mid-way through the third period (other teams favor). I feel so sorry for Will and his team mates, they just don't have any star quality and this year has been really tough.

Our new washer is suppose to be coming today. I am excited to use it, but the washer gets cold on the truck so the little water that is in it will freeze. So one day is need to make sure no water is frozen. I will have to let you know tomorrow how I like it.

I am debating if I should put in a submission to a scrapbook web-store for their design team. Not sure if my pages are up to par. I guess that I just should because you never know if you don't try! The bubbles page is one that I put on their website for view.

Have a great day! And try and stay warm if you are out and about in Minnesota!

Walker for Sale

Well, last night was another evening of skating. This time I went with Mike and Tate. We also got Will to go too. Sometimes he doesn't care to do much but then when you get him out there he has a great time. There were about seven kids from his hockey team there. So they played a pick-up game of hockey. Outdoor ice is so bad on the edges of your skates, so we will be making a trip to the sporting good store to have Will's skates sharpened before practice tonight.

It was so cool to see Tate trying so hard at something. I think that Mike is really excited to see Tate enjoy some sort of sport. By the end of the evening Tate was no longer using the "walker" and could even stand up by himself. The downside is that today Tate's checks and lips are really dry. And he won't let me put anything on them. He says that it is lip gloss and that is "yucky".

Oh, don't get spoiled by two posts in a row. Probably a fluke!

Kayting and Quarter

Well, a couple days later and I achieved getting my header changed. Hopefully things get easier or I am not sure if I am going to continue with this. I did find a neat website that will help with blog functions. The site is betabloggerfordummies. Hope you can find it useful also.

So on to the happens in the household, well of course when you just think that things are on there way to being paid off something breaks. I just put a load of laundry in and was just about upstairs and I heard a big thump. So the cloths washer is not working. And of course another bill for a new one.

Mike took Tate ice skating last night. Or maybe I should say "kayting" as Tate says. He still has trouble saying "s". Mike was only going to gone about an half an hour. An hour and a half later I had to call him on his cell to tell him that they should come home so Tate can get to bed. I guess Tate really enjoyed himself. Mike had made a "walker" to help Tate skate. Tate actually would push the walker to Mike and then kind of skate towards Mike. Some high school student was there making a documentary on skating and asked to film Tate. So now Tate is not just a skater but a film star!

Will started the new quarter in high school. High school is going so well for him. He has five classes and I guess the neighbor girl is in three of them. The funny thing is that in all of people in town their last name falls right after us. So she ends up sitting right beside Will. It is ok with Will just he would like a change.

The end of the quarter grades should be arriving soon and Will is so hoping to be on the A honor roll. He is always so close, I think that if he didn't make it this quarter it will be the closest that he has ever been.

Newbie

Well, here it goes. I guess that I am caving to the new (OK semi-new) society and making a blog.

Hope you enjoy and that my life is not to boring to not have anything to add.
