Drew's News

I'm sure many of you are wondering when I'm planning on posting something about my first born, Drew. No, I haven't forgotten him. It's just that he hasn't really done or said anything too out of the ordinary lately. But, just to make sure no one thinks I'm leaving him out, I'll let you know the big things in his life right now:

1. For my birthday, I bought our family a new Wii. Drew Metzger and his father can not get enough of it! They especially love bowling, and Drew is trying hard to go pro like dad to get a pink sparkly ball with a star on it.

2. He's crazy about Mrs. Herzog's (his first grade teacher) pet guinea pig, Anna. He loves Anna, and has to check on her as soon as we arrive each day. They also had caterpillars that changed into butterflies, and now they're observing an ant farm. I know this is the reason he loves Mrs. Herzog so much; because she's an animal lover too!

3. Uncle Jeremy recently bought a new truck. Well, that seems to be all Drew can think about. Obviously, he has a million questions for U. Jeremy's new ride, and he wants to ride in it so badly.

4. He's lost two teeth since school began. The second one got lost in the couch (he pulled it out of the enevelope in anticipation of showing dad). Well, after he and dad cut up my couch (literally) to no avail, we ended up writing a letter to the Tooth Fairy about the lost tooth and sleeping on it. The next day the Tooth Fairy had left a note, and all was good with her. She left the cash, and Drew was fine. His chipped tooth (that he chipped with dad when he was 2) is loose now. The Tooth Fairy is going to have to fight me for that one:)

Drew continues to amaze and challenge us. Sometimes we wonder what to do WITH HIM, but most days we wonder what we'd do WITHOUT him. More "Drew's News" to follow soon:)
