Another One?

Some things just really gross me out.

Bugs. I hate them. I’m bigger than them, but I’m terrified of them. I’m not sure if I’m terrified, or disgusted. Either way, gross!

Mold. Eww! If, by chance, there is something moldy in the fridge, it will remain moldy in the fridge until Ben disposes of it. I may or may not be responsible for a pineapple upside down cake that was left on top of our fridge for about 3 months because I was sure it was moldy. {Only to find out it had just dried up!} Is the mold going to hurt me? Maybe? Should I be afraid of it? Probably not. But, alas, another one of my quirks.

Third thing that grosses me out. Wiggly teeth! Double ewww! And why oh why do kids have to wiggle wiggle wiggle them? Seriously? Just leave.it.alone! All evening Parker sat in front of the mirror in the bathroom wiggling his tooth, trying to loosen it up enough to have it fall out before he went to bed. {Remember the last tooth? He swallowed it!} I wish I had had the guts to reach in there and yank it out, but it gives me the heeby jeebies! Major heeby jeebies. I try to be brave in front of my kids, so they don’t know I’m weak sauce. Oh well, I’m just trying to keep it real!

I was tucking Paisley in bed. {Snug as a bug in a rug no less} when Parker lets out a squeal of delight and triumphantly has a tiny tooth in his hand. He did it! He pulled out his own tooth. {YEAH!} No worries of swallowing it tonight! {YEAH!} And I don’t have to reach in there and feel it again! {YEAH!}

And in case you are counting, that’s the 5th tooth he’s lost! And there two more that are starting to get loose!
