Brody's first pinewood derby v

Yeah for Brody! He came in 3rd place on his first pinewood derby. He decided on a red car detailed with flames. Prior to the race, I asked him if he wanted to win or just have a cool looking car. He said both, but it became apparent he really wanted to win once we started racing. He would stand at the finish line with his fingers crossed behind his back for each race. Love that boy!

Brody lost his First Tooth!!!

At 5 1/2 years old

After being loose for maybe two months, the time finally came to give it a tug.  Adam didn't pull hard, but the tooth did bleed a little bit.  Brody didn't even know it had come out.  I came into his room the next morning and he looked sad, so I asked why.  "The tooth fairy didn't even come,"  he said.  Apparently he didn't look inside the little bag he left for the tooth fairy.  After opening the bag and discovering a note and some money, he way much happier!

Earlier in the week he also got a black-eye.  This picture is right after, before the bruising occurred.  With the ways things are going lately, I think his Kindergarten picture should be interesting to say the least!!!

If you want to watch the tooth coming out, then watch the three videos below :)
