Fun smiles





While we were visiting Grandma and Grandpa this weekend, Owen lost not just one, but TWO teeth on the bottom! One on one day, the next on the next (he pulled his second loose tooth out all by himself during scripture time). He really wants to eat apples now so he can lose more teeth and get more money from the tooth fairy. He thought that was pretty cool! Troy is happy for him - but he says it this way... "Now WE have six dollars!" (Explanation: they each had $2 before the teeth, $1 per tooth = $6, that Troy thinks they share...)

We had a great time visiting with Mamma who came out from Utah, Grandma and Grandpa, Greg and Blythe, and Jan. I had packed clothes so carefully and the kids had picked out their favorites... and I left it behind... (When we came home I found our crate tucked carefully away near our toy room. I don't remember why I decided to take it there, but whatever.) Mamma bought an extra outfit for each of the kids to wear, and Grandma and Grandpa offered the kids some BIG SHIRTS to wear for pjs. The kids LOVED the big shirts and sometimes fought over them, but were always happy to wear these at bedtime.

Next up, the BEACH!!!

It takes a lot of work to plan and pack for a family vacation. That would be frustrating but it is good everyone adapted well.

Wish we could've been there. Congrats to Owen, Grace keeps wiggling her other loose bottom tooth in hopes that it will come out soon.
