Jonah took it to the Tooth Fairy

Yesterday, Jonah lost 3 teeth. The tooth fairy at our house always leaves silver dollars. I bet if I could have talked to the tooth fairy, she would have said: "Three teeth on a Saturday night? Where in the world am I going to come up with 3 silver dollars on a Saturday night?" Purely hypothetical, but I bet she was excited for him too.
Here is a before shot from St Patrick's day.In the last 3 weeks we have gone through 8 boxes of tissues. The joys of the early spring viruses, head colds, ear infections, stomach flu, and strep throat.The other day, we made ice cream. For kids there are moments that time absolutely stands still. For me they were:#1 "Boyd, you can go play outside after you watch this session of General Conference." #2 "Boyd, we need to go into the fabric store for a few minutes." #3 "Push this can around for 15 minutes, at which time there will be ice cream inside that you can eat." The kids were a little more patient than I remember being, but Hudson told me that his arms were sore from making ice cream all day.

Three teeth in one day? Is Jonah saving up for something special?

I so feel you on the tissue issue, between me and Emersyn its a constant booger factory around here!

I don't know if I have ever heard of anyone losing three teeth in one day unless something tragic happened. Way to go Jonah! I hope you guys are feeling better. This cold and flu season has been horrible at our house too.

3 Teeth? Wowser! So did the tooth fairy deliver on the 3 silver dollars? Love the toothless grins!

So did the tooth fairy go and get some extra silver dollars to have in case?

Our tooth fairy has forgotten a time or two or maybe even three. She leaves extra money and a note of apology.

Seriously I don't think your kids could be any cuter. Adorable all of them.

That has to be a record. I am wondering as well, did the tooth-fairy deliver?

I had the same experience with the fabric store and I still feel that way to this day. Great pictures!
