The past week or so has been crazy. Our landscaping was infested with torpedo grass and every type of weed killer we used has not worked. Brad did a lot of research on the internet and spoke with some people at the LSU Ag Center - he found out the only way to get rid of it is the dig it up and start over. So that is what he has been working on. It is starting to look really good. He put a new brick border out, has new dirt and just returned from Forrest Hill with the new plants! Today I am working and he and his Mom are planting. I can't wait to see it. I'll post some pictures after he is finished.
On Monday, David went to the dentist. The hygentist asked me if I knew about his loose tooth. Well of course I DIDn't... David told me last week that while he was at camp he "broke" his tooth on a corn dog stick. I never even thought about him having a loose tooth. The dentist looked at it and said it probably would be coming out in a few weeks, so I scheduled an appointment for the boys to get their pictures taken on Sunday afternoon. I wanted to have one last picture of all of them with all of their teeth. On my way to work this morning, David called and said his tooth fell out. He is super excited about the tooth fairy coming tonight. I've checked all over the internet to find out what the going tooth fairy rate is.
On another note, David has been having some severe (very severe) pains on his side for the past few days. So severe that he didn't even want to play in all of his t-ball game the other day and he would rather sit in the car instead of staying in Cheeburger Cheeburger with his friends! The pain comes and goes. He'll be fine playing and then all of a sudden he'll lay down in the fetal position. We brought him to the doctor yesterday and had some scans done on him. We are having to "clean him out" (he's on a laxative all weekend) and they are going to run some more test next week. Please keep him in your prayers. I'll update later next week once we know what is wrong.
We haven't had any other exciting stuff going on - Brad has been the landscaping man and I'm the momma (practicing to be the tooth fairy).
