First Lost Tooth

after

Colton lost his first tooth a few days before his 6th Birthday! It had been loose for quite some time... he's not a yanker, apparently. It came out after a big night playing outside until almost 10pm with kids buds, NJ and Annie! The tooth fairy left him $2. He told me the next morning that he thought the tooth fairy is a, 'real man who takes kids teeth and puts them in a big museum.' HA! That was a new one for me. He looks so much more grown up with a tooth gone... and another is on its way!

This series of photos totally cracked me up! Brett took them and they're 'live' photos so I hope they publish on here!

Colton wore his Red Sox shirt to the first O's game we went too. We bought an O's shirt outside of the stadium though. Boston was playing the Orioles. He rooted for the Red Sox UNTIL the Orioles hit a grand slam to take the lead... then he proceeded to take off his Red Sox shirt and put on his new Orioles shirt!! Hilarious!

Colton VERY much enjoyed our patio renovation.

From having an ugly yard he could dig and do whatever he wanted in, to the trucks delivering stones, to the skid steer excavating, and the tree trimmer climbing our massive oak, Colton enjoyed the entire process.

El Restaurante Chocolate

Colton's Spanish Class had Restaurante day yesterday and it was adorable. They got into teams, prepared a menu, and served their food to other kids and parents. They also got to take breaks and visit the other kids' restaurantes. Colton had a blast! He just loves Spanish class and his teacher, Paloma.
