Of teeth and teeth

It has been COLD! And we have enjoyed so much visiting with friends and family this holiday season. As it wraps up, the kids are still interested in family gatherings and above all love getting together with my brother and his family. COUSINS!!!!!!!

Yesterday Trey and his crew came in to Mom's for a family dinner. Sadly, the kids were not dressed properly to play outside in the cold and dark, so they were inside and YOU COULD TELL they had been inside for TOOOOO long, if you know what I mean. Mapi has lost three teeth in the past month and had a fourth one loose when she was playing with her cousins, maybe a little too rough, when that loose tooth got kicked out by Michael. Mapi was hurt and cried, but I am greateful she didn't have a bust lip to go with the now-evicted tooth. I need to get a picture of her this afternoon - FOUR teeth missing! Two front top and two "right next to front" bottom are gone, baby (teeth) gone. My baby (5.5 y/o) is getting so big!

My other tooth story? On the way to mom's house yesterday (in the cold), Catherine (2.5 y/o) was shivering. She described it to me as "Mama, my teeth are bumping!" Sweet little girl :D
