Belle and the Beast

The kids met Belle when we were visiting Disney World and had no idea who she was because we had never watched Beauty and the Beast. That, however, did not stop them from being excited to meet this pretty Princess.

I checked out Beauty and the Beast from the library to watch for our family movie night this week. It was a HIT. Addy and Jack played Belle and the Beast by growing like the beast and dancing like princesses. Addy wore her princess dress and danced with Ryan during the ballroom scene. (melted my heart to watch) Addy has requested to watch Belle and the Beast every day. (she told me that is what she calls it)

Highlight of our current Beauty and the Beast obsession was on Monday when Jack and Addy had some friends over to play. Beauty and the Beast was on in the background as they played and when Belle appeared at the top of the stairs in her yellow dress, Jack silenced the room with a "Guys, Guys, it's the yellow dress. That's what she was wearing when I met her in Disney World." He made everyone stop what they were doing and watch Belle walk down the stairs. He even chastised me for walking in front of him because he could not see.

Needless to say, we are in high Princess adoration this week.

Toothless Wonder

For weeks Jack has been enjoying a wiggly tooth.

It finally came out on Sunday night.

He was so surprised when it came out and then he was so excited about the Tooth Fairy coming.

He put his tooth in an envelope for the Tooth Fairy and put it under his pillow.
We told him we thought the Tooth Fairy would bring him a quarter. His response was "Or cash. Oh and a toothbrush."

The Tooth Fairy was kind to him and brought a neon orange tooth brush and a dollar. It was almost as exciting as Christmas morning.

He can't wait to show Dr. Sean, his dentist, the space in his mouth.

Ryan and I are still recovering from the trauma of realizing that Jack is growing up so fast.
