Toothless Drew!

I'm sure that most of you out there reading this who have younger children have gone through the whole loose tooth experience rather recently. We experienced our own "first lost tooth" this past week...well we sort of experienced it. This is how it went...

Drew has been fiddling with a loose tooth for about the last 2 weeks on and off and really has not been all that concerned about it. Some of our friends who have had children with loose teeth have had a completely different experience. Everything from crying to fussing to laughing. Drew really didn't exhibit any of these "symptoms." His treatment of the loose tooth was more of something to fool around with when he was bored.

So on Friday we were sitting down to eat lunch and Drew was fiddling around with it a bit more than usual. I had been on TDY the whole previous week and was remarking how much looser the tooth was than when I left. So about halfway through lunch, Kristin stopped eating and asked Drew where his tooth was! So he sprung-up and went to the mirror and sure enough, this is what he looked like...


We can only surmise that it was lost in the piece of cantaloupe he was chowing-down on at the time I informed him he would be revisiting his tooth in a day or two to which he gave me a weird look and went about eating the rest of his lunch. So much for the Tooth Fairy...

Go Tribe!!

Despite how bad the Tribe have been performing this year, we went to a Cleveland Indians game on Memorial Weekend with Grandma and Grandpa Spurlock. We had an absolute blast and this was the first time Drew had been to Jacobs Field (now technically called Progressive Field).

Typical of their season, the Tribe lost to the Rangers, but we had a great time just being at the ballpark and watching the players take batting practice...
