Bubba's Beavers

This morning on the way to school I took the boys through the McDonald's Drive-Thru for breakfast. We were almost to school when Bubba announces he has lost one of his molar teeth. He fishes it out of his mouth and hands it to me in a napkin...along with some of his Sausage McMuffin. Oh the joys of motherhood. I fish through the chewed up sausage and locate the tooth. I even took a picture....but decided it was my gift to you for not posting it. Some things are just better left to the imagination I suppose. Anyways...before bed Bubba comes to me looking for his tooth. I tell him I left it in the car and he rushes out to get it. He drops it on his way into the house and the tooth splits in two. Bubba's response just had to be documented. Bubba: Ohhhhh MAN!! Great....she's never going to take this!! Its like I'm lying to her. She's probably only going to bring me half the money since its in two pieces. Oh great! I mine as well just throw it away." Me: Well...why don't you go ask your dad and see what he thinks. I was sitting at the computer and it was all I could do not to smile and laugh....because Bubba really knew the Tooth Fairy was going to find this tooth unacceptable. Luke tells him to go ahead and put it under his pillow. Bubba put the tooth in a ziploc bag and labels it.

I love you Bubba....and I hope you believe in the Tooth Fairy forever. Your innocence makes me smile and warms my heart.

That Stop Wasn't On My Itinerary....

So the Hogue's made it to Florida for our first official family vacation. It was Sawyer's first plane ride....and Simon's first plane ride that he can remember. We were excited....the boys were stoked. We had everything we needed! But it seems that Sawyer packed something with him that wasn't on our checklist: a big case of pneumonia. Yes, the little fella made it almost one whole day in Florida before he started heading downhill fast. Our 2nd day in Orlando we were in the Urgent Care south of Cocoa Beach. (By the way, to see a doctor more quickly, it helps if you vomit all over the waiting room in front of the receptionist. Little tip for ya) After chest x-rays they advised us to head to the ER in Melbourne, where they eventually admitted him to the hospital. So, we had 3 night deluxe accommadations at the Holmes Regional Medical Center. The little whipper snapper was a trooper though! The nurses loved him, thankfully, and made us all feel right at home. We were going to send postcards out with pictures of the hospital since we spent 40% of our trip there...but they didn't have any. Imagine that!Hmmm.....maybe its something they should consider.
