Christian's Self Portrait

We stopped by the school office today after class so Christian could use the bathroom (because, you know, he refuses to go DURING class), and lining the walls were scholars' self portraits.  It didn't occur to me that Christian's would be among them ... but he immediately pointed out which one was his:

Given his love of Captain Hook these days, it came as no surprise that he put Captain Hook on his paper. :)

All He Wants for Christmas is His Two Front Teeth!

Today Christian was talking to me and I could hear something was in his mouth.  I asked him what it was and he looked at me with the biggest toothless smile and showed me he'd been sucking on his latest tooth to come out (if you're keeping track, he's now lost SEVEN teeth!).

 

The tooth has been somewhat loose for a while, but not loose enough to fall out.  Once again, he was really working to get this tooth out.  As such, I think it'll be a while before his two front adult teeth grow in.

 

If you look closely, you can see that two of his adult teeth on the bottom are coming in.  He lost three down there, but so far only two adult teeth are coming in - and that is all there is room for.
