Baseball, Tooth Fairies, and Playtime

Ethan has began baseball practice.  He is playing Peewee this year and is on the Angels.  He really loves to play and enjoys the camaraderie with the other boys but we now practice an hour and a half which is a big jump from tee-ball and his attention span is just very minimal by the time practice is half over (keep in mind practice is always on a weekday after he's already been in school all day).  Anyway, we are enjoying the fresh air and the smell of Spring approaching. 

On Monday, Ethan had an appointment to get his teeth cleaned and the dentist ended up pulling his tooth that has been VERY loose for the last two weeks!  Ethan couldn't wait to get home and get ready for bed so that he could put his tooth under his pillow for the tooth fairy.  He was very pleased to find his ten dollars and a Thomas the Train pez dispenser and he already has another one loose and is wigging it daily in hopes of receiving another visit from the tooth fairy (who he is convinced is a boy, lol).  I love to see his little snaggle toothed grin....he looks so different!

Isn't he cute with that tooth missing?  Btw, he desperately needed a haircut in this pic.....that is where we went as soon as we left the dentist!

Landen is cutting his molars and Orajel has been our BEST friend here lately!  They really hurt him at night for some reason.  He is still as happy as ever during the day though and plays up a storm.....
