Liam's 1st Lost Tooth

Liam's tooth had been loose for nearly a month. He kept asking us to pull it out for him, but he didn't want to wiggle it out himself. Finally, Liam lost it on March 30th. He was having a picnic outside with his brothers (in a wagon, which I'm told was their boat). His tooth popped out when he bit into an apple. Liam loves apples so I'd wondered from the beginning, if it might be the perfect thing to get the job done. Liam put the tooth in the pillow that Grandma Bohman had made him and he wasn't disappointed. The Tooth Fairy left him two gold dollars. Wow! What a cute toothless grin.

Weather or Not

This weather has been really strange. One day it snows, the next it all melts and is warm enough to go out without a coat. I guess Utah is going easy on us, since we're used to California sunshine. Whatever it is, I'll take it. No cabin fever here. This whole week it's up near 70--perfect. I called friends in CA and found out it was nicer weather here than there. Strange.
One night the boys and I built this snowman to welcome Nathan home from a very late night with the legislative session (He didn't get home until after 11:30.). They named him Fred Ice Cream.
My boys love shoveling snow. We really haven't needed to shovel since it's all melted off the day after, but they've had fun with it anyway. I hope they keep their enthusiasm for the job in harsher winters yet to come.

Birthday Blizzard or Confetti?

Liam's actual 6th birthday, March 6th, was a blizzard. Caleb misunderstood me and as he gazed out the window, kept asking me where the lizard was. Liam loved it and decided that the world was just throwing confetti to celebrate his birthday! I love that imagery.

With Nathan working late for the legislative session, I took the boys to McDonald's Play Place (Liam's choice) to get out of the storm. They even got happy meals with Star Wars toys! I'm glad Liam had a great day.
