They had fun on the slip and slide. After it was picked up there was a muddy area in the grass that was too hard to stay away from.

Tooth # 2 - A little premature

Holly wanted to earn more money. Her second tooth was a little loose but not very close to coming out until she purposely bit a wood block and pulled it out. I felt a little squeamish about this but she was very excited about the next visit from the tooth fairy. Maybe I should give her other types of opportunities to earn money??
