Big excitement

So there was lots of excitement in the house last night as Autumn lost her first tooth. It was hanging by a string and basically popped out when I pulled it with a tissue. She was beyond excited, wiggling and squiggling when she went to bed, and ran into our room at 2:30am to tell us that there was $1 under her pillow. She couldn't wait to go to school today and I saw her showing her toothy grin to her friends on the bus as it drove away this afternoon - which totally cracked me up. She just spontaneously starts to giggle when she feels the empty space with her tongue. Joshua stares at her in awe and said "My teeth are going to fall out when I'm big." It's hilarious.

Speaking of the Bud, here is a picture of my child that could likely get us arrested if we do not clarify. Yes, he is 3. Yes, his shorts are size 12 months. Yes, they are safety pinned at the waist and still falling off. Yes, his ribs stick out. No, his belly is not normally that distended. I know he looks like he belongs in a 3rd world country and truly, we do feed the child. I think this is a great picture to show my future pregnant daughter-in-law!
