We have contact

I have entered the world of disposable contacts. The only real thing this means is that I can get sunglasses without question as to whether I can put prescription is. Oh, and I am likely to scratch my eye.

Owen lost another tooth. He's getting $2/tooth, and now that the $1 Gold coins are out, it seems like Pippi Longstocking money. He likes those coins.

Nathan and I go to Starbucks together on the way in to his day care when I take him in. Lately we go to one near us that has a grocery store near it. Last week, we saw a Mother's cookie truck, went to look inside, and the guy let us in the truck. Nathan was blown away. So many cookies! We haven't seen the Mother's truck since (the "cookie truck") but we have seen the "beer truck" "bucket truck" (a cherry picker), and today, a "bread truck." Good times.

Back to school night tonight. Not likely to be kegstands.

Tooth Fairy

Well we had a very social weekend. Soccer on Saturday, friends over on Saturday, where parents played with parents and kids played with kids. What a concept. Good times. Then wine and food benefit with friends on Sunday and a new 12 year old babysitter. Wow.

Owen lost his first tooth Friday night. He had been playing with it in bed for awhile and it was very loose (and bleeding). He was kind of freaked out, and then he just pulled it out. He was very proud, as was I. It was almost 11PM.

The next night we did the tooth fairy thing. I went into his room to put money under his pillow and he was still kind of awake, asking me what I was doing there. I said I was just checking on him, and gave him a hug while slipping money under his pillow. Wayyyyyy, too easy. I think I could slip someone a Mickey if I needed to.

The next morning I asked him if he heard/saw the tooth fairy, and he responded that the only thing he heard was the "ding" of her wand.
