I'll keep my mouth shut!

Sydney lost a tooth Sunday evening. It was the first tooth to fall out on its own. The previous two had to be pulled by the dentist. Sydney was so excited to lose this tooth. She told us that on Monday morning she would tell her friends and her teacher about the tooth. She said, "I am just going to keep my mouth shut and my teacher will be so surprised!" Now, I know that Syd meant her teacher would be surprised about the missing tooth, but it sounded like she meant her teacher would be surprised that she could keep her mouth shut! And, honestly, I bet that would surprise her teacher just as much as a missing tooth. Sydney has never been a shy child. LOVE YOU SYDNEY!!

A new twist on Multi-tasking!

This post requires no pictures. Scratch that, YOU DON'T WANT PICTURES!!

A few nights ago Sydney was taking an especially long time brushing her teeth before bedtime. Brian opened the bathroom door to check on her and found her sitting on the toilet, going to the bathroom, and brushing her teeth at the same time. It gets worse... Brian opened the door just in time to see Sydney spit into the toilet. GROSS!!!!!
I only dare share this horrifying experience in hopes that you have witnessed similar 'creative' multi-tasking endeavors by your own children.
