So this is the conversation on the way home from the gym today:
(wiggling tooth around) Mom, look at my tooth.
I can't really see it from here, how is it doing this morning? Is it still in your mouth?
Umm, not anymore, I just pulled it out. Oh no, I dropped it.

Fortunately we were very near the high school, so I whipped into the parking lot and hopped out of the car to look for the very first lost tooth. It had dropped into a fold in her shirt or shorts and when she stood up it fell to the floor. We made it home without losing it again, and it is now ensconced in the tooth pillow waiting to put it out for the tooth fairy tonight.

Food journal:

1 bowl of bran flakes w/milk
14 oz. glass of water
20 oz. bottle of water
large mug of English Breakfast tea w/2 teaspoons of sugar
1 bran muffin
1 McDonald's cheeseburger, plain
15 French fries
1 large McDonald's sweet tea, half ice
4 oz. low fat cottage cheese
1/2 can pineapple chunks in juice
corn
broccoli
skinless chicken thigh
14 oz. glass sweet tea
1 small scoop of Country Inn ice cream (this ice cream is so good, it tastes like a bowl of cinnamon & spice oatmeal)
large mug of decaf English Breakfast tea w/2 teaspoons of sugar

Friday night is ice cream night for our family during our local ice cream shop's season. It's about 1 1/2 miles from our house, so, weather permitting, we ride our bikes there and back. Tonight, we thought we were going to have to drive because it was pretty cloudy and looked like rain, but while we were eating supper the clouds cleared and we got to ride. Fortunately there was a little breeze, because it's been pretty hot and humid the last few days.
