April 12, 2011: Andrew gets invited to go to a movie with a friend. He is so excited that he gets ready early and is watching out the front window for them. Our movie theaters here have refill cups that you can buy and if you bring them back it's only $1 for refills on your next visit. I LOVE this promotion. So I gave Andrew some money and his movie cup and let him hangout in the front room and wait. After a while he comes to me.......

Like this and tells me the cup is stuck on his arm. At first I thought he was teasing and told him to take it off. Watching him try was hilarious. It made his arm look so funny when he was moving it around.

He's such a trooper. Mom gets out her camera for everything. So before I would help him take it off I had to snap a few angles.

Getting it off was trickier then expected and finally was only achieved after dumping oil into the cup and moving it around. He was stuck with a red mark on his arm for awhile and I had to give him a clean cup. We were laughing hysterically when we were trying to get it off. Okay, I was laughing hysterically and Andrew had more of a nervous laugh. Think he didn't trust that I could get it off. He was fearing it would be a more permanent situation. He looks really relieved in this photo.

April 13, 2011: If your going to lose a tooth you want to lose it at school. Marissa has lost a couple of teeth this year but she has been waiting for this one. She actually has tried to prevent losing it at home so she can get rewarded for losing it at school.

Lose a tooth at school and they give you a certificate, a treat, and a little tooth necklace that holds your tooth until you get home. Now if I hadn't told you that it would seem she is holding up her lost tooth that appears to be the size of a small dinosaurs tooth.

When I picked her up from the bus she said "it finally happened".
