"Thing 1"

Weston had a school project where he had to pick a book to read, then answer some questions, then come to school dress up as one of the characters. He loves Dr. Seuss's books, so he picked The Cat in the Hat book and he/picked to be Thing 1 (as you can kind of see on the pages of the book). We had fun preparing for this and we thought it turned out really good. So below is a pic of Wes, ready to go to school.

First Tooth Fairy's visit!

At 6 years old, Weston lost his first tooth. I kept telling Wally he would be the one pulling the tooth, because I didn't want to do it. Well, after church, while we were waiting on Wally, Weston just put his finger in his mouth, to wiggle it (was his intention), but instead... I heard, "my tooth came out!" And there it was! I quickly gave him a napkin and send him to the bathroom to rinse it off. And there was no more blood in his mouth, and that's how quick it happened. I was happy with that. He was SSOOOO excited his first tooth came out!
THat night, Weston put his tooth (in a ziploc baggy) under his pillow, and the next morning there was a dollar and the tooth was gone! (He was hoping for a million.... sorry... if that was what happens, I would be pulling my own teeth out now!)

Dads and Donuts

Weston's school had a day called "Dads and Donuts" which is a day where dads (grandparents or "equivalents") can come and have a small breakfast with their children. So Weston invited his daddy and Wally was able to go (he was going to work later) and they both said they had a great time, to what I call "father and son bonding time"! They ate, then Weston took Wally to the hallway by his classroom and showed some projects done, then gave him a book (made by him) describing daddy... pretty funny. Then Wally asked, "so what do we do now, son?", to which Weston replied, "I go in my classroom and you go home". He loves school!!!!!
