That's great news armpants! Way to go M, and good for you for advocating for the care that he needs!

So I'm curious, did anyone else have issues of their kid not telling when they had to go, even though they're holding pee until they're on the toilet? I don't know if that's a normal thing, or if it's related to apraxia. He's only told us once, and is hit or miss on signaling. Jojo tells us at home for the most part but I not at school. He waits until their scheduled time. I think it's because he's busy having fun and/or he doesn't want to be a bother (he has not probably being a bother at home, lol).

DD1 (5.5) has her first loose tooth. Hold me, I'm not ready for this!! She just discovered it this morning and it's super wiggly. Like, wiggly enough to come out in the next few days. She's super excited about it. I generally haven't been sad about the kids growing up (no tears from me at kindergarten drop off, just excitement), but for some reason, this one is hitting me hard. I feel like I need to get my fill of her little girl smile in the next day or two because it will be different after this. I felt the same way when they got their baby teeth and the gummy grins were gone. So I'm going to sit here and be a sap, sniffling about a loose tooth. Never mind that I'm sure she's going to be so stinking cute with a gap! Trying to focus on that for now.

That is a big one aydee ! Now you get to be the tooth fairy. I need to figure that out ASAP! The tooth fairy will leave money, of course, but I'm not sure if I want to do something else. Off to search for ideas...

First tooth lost, I plan to give a $2 bill. Any teeth after that will be 2 $1 dollar bills. Go get some ice cream, kid.

J only woke up once last night from a nightmare. I consider it a win. And it was the first night that F was in her crib. I missed having her next to me

I'm pretty sure the tooth fairy will leave a dollar and that's it. I looked at some templates for notes and I didn't really like the messages. Plus I'm lazy and that seems like a lot of work to keep up with for every tooth they lose.
The tooth in question is hanging by a thread. I'm hoping it comes out tonight because otherwise I'm pretty sure it will happen at school tomorrow. It can already rotate more than 90 degrees but I don't think we should try pulling it.

Good news is that the tooth came out all on it's own at dinner. Bad news is that she inadvertently swallowed it and burst out sobbing when she realized that's what happened. She calmed relatively quickly after we made a big deal about admiring her new gap and reassured her that the tooth fairy will still come tonight.

M is back in surgery. Having his tonsils and adenoids removed. So happy that the poor guy can deal with less strep. Hoping he's back to us soon.

We got home about an hour ago. Recovery room was tough. Currently having to give him juice by syringe. He just fell asleep after a dose of pain meds. Fx he gets a good nap and wakes up feeling a little better.

It's been a tough day. He's fighting his pain meds and liquids. I'm hoping tomorrow is better. He's at least sleeping well.

jedi he's fighting drinking, but it feels more like a kid that feels better and is just fighting because he's a toddler. He's eating more, which is gold as I know he's getting hydrated from that as will. He's definitely on the mend. Thanks for asking.
