Snaggle Tooth

Yes, I'm aware that this is a goofy picture of Paige, but I had to take it quickly tonight trying to show how crooked her front tooth is because it's so loose!  I ordered her a tooth fairy pillow and it should be here Tuesday or Wednesday, but I doubt it will make it in time for the first visit from the tooth fairy.  It was only slightly loose last week, but it's barely hanging on tonight.  She's beyond excited for it to fall out.  I'm purposely not telling her that if she would just give it a few good wiggles it would fall right out.  Her friends will probably let the cat out of the bag tomorrow.  The school nurse, whom Paige is in love with, gives out special treats for lost teeth and Paige just can't wait to get hers for this tooth.  

In house cleaning news I spent the entire day today cleaning out the mess of a closet that belongs to Aaron.  Well, actually I helped him get started on it and tear it apart this morning, then I spent the rest of the day filing, purging old files, shredding (oh my gosh all the shredding!), and throwing away crap we didn't need in the filing system.  Remind me exactly why it was that I still needed every Explanation of Benefits from my pregnancy in 2003??  Yeah, that bad.  But not anymore.  What was a stuffed full 4 drawer file cabinet, plus a huge rubbermaid tote full of old files is now 3 drawers loosely filed of active files, one drawer of legal size house closing papers, and one small drawer with old files that I don't want to chunk (ie old jobs, cars, continuation of coverage papers).  I'm giddy at how organized they are!!  Then I got the wills out, which had never been filed properly, put a sticky note on them listing who provides both our life insurance policies and who our investments are with, and filed it all in the safe where they should have been 9 months ago.  It's freeing, it really is.  Now I can get hit by that bus.  (You have to know me for that not to sound sick). 

Tomorrow it's off to Goodwill and getting started on the office.  For as clean as the other spaces in the house are, my desk is a disaster......but not for long.  The clean sweep team is headed it's way.  

Hope everyone has a great week!
