Atomictumor

I fell asleep on the couch while the boys and I were watching the Discovery Channel.  I used to do that all the time, but its been a long time since I have.

Theres something nice about having ourselves gathered on the couch.  We rarely watch movies, so having stuff to watch on the TV is a neat way to get them still for a while.  Problem is, all that warm kid body heat and the comfy couch just knocks me right out.  True, last night I slept for crap, I was awake damn near all night long with an upset stomach and an itchy head (from the beer/pizza and the chlorine fountain water), running through the Bonnaroo preparations in my head.

I’ve been planning another post about that for days, detailing the plans (or lack thereof) we’ve come up with so far, but no time, man, no time.

I’m just too darn sleepy now.

Pigpen lost his first tooth this morning!

In the interest of fair disclosure, MastaG comes home with pulled teeth like some kids come home with, I dunno, snails or something.  I’m convinced he pulls other kids teeth at school, because I could swear that the tooth fairy has visited the boy like 75 times or so.  He’s always been one just to pull the thing out before he ever mentions (or I ever realize) its loose.

Pigpen showed a bit more hesitancy this morning.  The tooth was 31 flavors of loose, and he was wiggling it with his tongue, but he just didn’t have it in him to go for the kill.  I soothed him as I was trying to pull the damn thing out, but I’m lousy at pulling teeth, so I gave it a big heave, and nothing happened.  Pigpen reached in, and I watched the worry on his face transform into pure 5 yr old excitement as he came back out with the tooth.
