Rando Stuff

In recent Fuchs family news:

I let the boys play in the rain...

The boys doing what they love to do (Henry eating a snack, Cole playing Mario Kart. He's going to freak out when he sees how much better graphics have gotten since N64.)...

The boys can now make their own lunch. Henry made a ham and ketchup sandwich. I took a bite, It was disgusting. Cole made a PB&J...

I let the boys play in the mud. Our house is full of muddy hand prints that I'm sure I'll never wash off...

Cole lost his first tooth...

Not surprisingly Kristin went overboard as the Tooth Fairy. Cole and Henry each got a small pillow that has a pocket for when they lose teeth. Cole got $5, a balloon and candy. And a note from the Tooth Fairy. Not bad. We will certainly have to tone things down for the next tooth. Our budget can't handle $5 per tooth...

Henry has a new obsession - a made up friend called Boulder. He talks about Boulder constantly. Boulder is 16, was born and lives in New York and his parents live in Madison. Kristin even caught him talking in his sleep about Boulder. Other made up friends include Turtle Burtle and Space Lizard who traveled here by rocket ship and now lives in our radiators.

Last but not least, Cole is getting old and really starting to talk back. He was being fussy at dinner, so I told him he had to leave the table and that he wasn't going to get his Tooth Fairy candy. He stormed out. Then popped his head back in the kitchen, yelled something, and then screamed really loud (and got red in the face), "you block head."

I'm pretty sure that is the first time I have been called a block head.

Uncle Ben and Kim were in town for a wedding in Chicago so we were able to see them for 1 hour. It was a nice, quick visit. And Cole got to surprise them with his missing tooth so that was a highlight.

We also got cheap Brewer game tickets. No surprise that the Brew Crew lost. Sadly for the boys, there weren't even a lot of moments to cheer and clap. Highlights: Cole did a little dance to get on the big screen (he was pretty shy about it, so it didn't work). Henry tried to headbutt me and smashed his mouth on my chair. There was blood.

This is the most fun I've ever seen Kristin have at a Brewer game (sober). 

Mouth smash ended the night of fun
