The "Tooth" of it all.......part 2

Okay - so I was a little premature on my last post. I posted it this morning, and then went about my day as usual. I had to make a trip into Meridian and arrived home a little after my boys got home from school. I walked in the door to Little C and his 4th little white tooth in his hand.

The story remains the same however. He asked G-pa Wright for a little help getting his tooth out...and well, you guessed it....G-pa failed! Little C was undeterred. He told G-pa he would not rest until his tooth was gone! He ran up the stairs and returned about 5 min later with a proud smile plastered on his face! What a determined little boy! I hope that attribute sticks with him throughout his life!!

Looks like he will be expecting a visit from the Tooth Fairy!! Just a little something to think about....have you ever wondered what little kids picture when they think of the Tooth Fairy? Here are a few images to consider:

I myself wouldn't mind a visit from Tooth Fairy #3!!

The "Tooth" of it all...

So Little C just lost his 3rd tooth. This kid has no fear when it comes to pulling out his teeth. His first 2 he worked on....and worked on....pulling and twisting till they finally came out! This last one, his dad tried first, but was unsuccessful. Not Little C though - he succeeded where his dad could not, and eventually he had a little white tooth he could put under his pillow. His big brother informed him there really isn't a Tooth Fairy - that it is just mom and dad. Well Little C was not going to except that. I told him as long as he believed in the Tooth Fairy, than there would always be something waiting for him under his pillow when he wakes up in the morning. We will see how big brother likes that the next time he loses a tooth!!

Merry Christmas

We hope you and yours have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!

Love,

Happy.....Late......Halloween!!

I know this is coming late, but seriously - what else is new?!?

Happy Halloween - from The Wright's!!

A girl after my own heart!!

This year for Halloween, we told the kids we weren't going to buy them new costumes. We are just going to be creative, and create one with what we already have in the house!!

Well, Miss K had a party at her school and we were trying to figure out what to do. We went back and forth between Lady Bug, and Pirate, and of course there was the "princess" option - she has plenty of those costumes!!

As we were going through her dress-up clothes, I came across a one-piece slip, and the wheels started turning. I have been in a "rocker" mood because of an upcoming Rock Band party we will be attending, (more on that later)!! So here is what we came up with.........

Have a Rockin' Halloween!!

....and she's off!!

So Miss K was tired of waiting for mom and dad to find the time to teach her how to ride a bike, so she decided she was going to take matters into her own hands!!

One night, while working on my computer, a flash of pink outside my window caught my eye. I proceeded to walk out my front door to solve the mystery of the "pink blur" when much to my surprise I found my 4 yr old daughter riding the neighbor girls pink bike!! I inquired as to who had taught her to ride a bike. She informed me - in a very matter-of-fact voice - "well, I did mom"!!

We, (Grandparent's & Mom), decided that such a feat deserved a trophy. A bike of her own it was.

Next....shoelaces!!

A little "Risky Business" of our own!!

Once upon a time, in a kingdom far, far away there lived a royal family and like all royal families, they went to church on Sunday's. Well it just so happens this story begins on a Sunday morning.

The royal alarm went off promptly at 7:00. The King and Queen crawled out of bed and quietly crept to each of their 3 children's rooms to announce their arrival with a spirited round of "Wake-Up Little Suzy"!! The Princes and Princess grumbled, but rolled out of their warm cocoon's to begin their morning hygiene ritual, and to don their royal church clothes. Once the King and Queen were finally able to reclaim their territory, they themselves began the long process that would eventually find them ready to face the other royal families at the local chapel.

Now you must understand that this kingdom was magical!! The children's belongings had legs of their own, and would play tricks on them by hiding themselves in inconspicuous places at the exact moment they are needed!! This especially pertained to their shoes, but it wasn't uncommon for this magic to affect their toys, blankets, and even pillows on occasion! Well, this particular morning they found out that was not the only magic their kingdom possessed!!

While the King and Queen were in the royal bath chamber, a surprising event occurred - a character straight, out of the movies, materialized out of thin air!!

He didn't seem to realize his misfortune, because he continued with his role playing without missing a beat.

We knew that we had to take immediate action!! This anomaly would send our fragile universe into an uproar. Time was working against us, but we knew we couldn't fail in our mission!!

We did the only thing we could in such a tight situation....we Googled it!! Of course "Mr. Google" didn't let us down, and we were able return our mysterious friend in the allotted time!! Not only that, we still made it to church on time!!

Well, how did you think it was going to end??
