lincoln lost his first one today! we heard it was loose, oh, about 2 months ago maybe? i think we gave up that it was coming out anytime soon. so lo and behold, they run upstairs to me this afternoon saying he lost it! it was a little bit loose and then he just yanked it out. ok!
in other dental details, neva is going to the orthodontist tomorrow for her second appointment toward braces. tho we are not sure exactly what is going to happen to her mouth tomorrow, it could be well on its way to big changes. so we thought we'd better document these sweet little ever-changing mouths! oh, and just under a small jelly-jar glass half-full of water near his bed, holding that precious little tooth, prepared for the tooth fairy just like his daddy did when he was a little boy-- is another piece of classic linc literature/composition in a message to the tooth fairy [see below]...
[Dear Tooth Fairy,]
WHERE DO YOU KEEP aLL oF THOSE TEETH?
P.S. WILL YOu DROWN GETING MY TooTH?
OR WILL MY MONEY BE SOaKED? LiNCOLN
The second theme of this post is my first embrace-the-camera moment...a good friend [adorable emily] of a good friend of mine [delightful jeanna] is encouraging mamas to "embrace the camera" every thursday, to be sure there is ample evidence of what we look like in real-time, real-life with our kids, since usually moms are on the other side of the lens. emily loves the honest picture, even tho the mom-reality often...pretty-much-absolutely-for-this-here-mama...means unkempt hair/face/fashion/home/etc. i am going to go ahead with my embrace, here and now, as a monday changes into a tuesday, just because. i cannot seem to get my days in order for any big/daily things, let alone a li'l old blog post, and i'm on a bit of a blog "roll" HA. so here goes.

yeah for teeth!! Nance - I'm SOOOOO glad you chose to "embrace the camera" as it was wonderful to see your beautiful smile!!! you look great! Perhaps, I may find the courage to do the same (but not today b/c i'm sitting here in my ratty old sweatshirt(17 yrs old) haven't showered in 2 days and probably have food stuck in my teeth) but someday.....:-) I love you all!!!!
Yeah Linc on the lost tooth. Hope the tooth fairy was good to you!
Congrats Lincoln! Keep us up to date with Neva's teeth too. Margot had an expander put in the top of her mouth in September so we've begun that journey too!
