Kindergartener and losing the first tooth!!

So Connor started kindergarten!! I can't believe he's old enough...and we're old enough...to start! He absolutely loves it and tells us all about his day when he gets home. Ammon usually drops him off and picks him up everyday (he works an afternoon shift at work) and, since he's not home in the evenings, he says it's his "bonding time" with Connor. They get up early to play together and then after school we have scripture study (and my dreaded -yet necessary- shot for the pregnancy) and then he's off to work. It seems to work out, although we miss him in the evenings.

Here's our strong little "coyote" in front of his school!! He's howling, so cute.



These are the coyotes in the main office that made him want to go to this school over the others we checked out- such simple criteria for choosing. Thankfully, Ammon and I looked at several other factors in finally deciding on this school. His teacher is from our ward so he thinks it's cool that he sees her at school AND church.


Our little guy lost his first tooth the first week of school!! Just can't believe it. Here he is showing the gap- bottom tooth. The one next to it is loose now too. He loved getting money for his tooth, although he doesn't know quite what to do with it.

LOL! The joys of being young and WANTING to lose your teeth. And even showing it off! What a cutie!
