Tooth fairy visits again!

Amy lost her 3rd tooth last week. I was surprised that this one was on the bottom. She had showed me at dinner that her tooth was very loose. Her two top teeth have been loose for awhile, so I was expecting them to come out next.

She was not listening when her dad was trying to get her to bed and she had a beach ball in her mouth. David pulled it out and out came the tooth. She was excited that the tooth fairy would come again.

Her 2nd tooth came out June 6 when Gigi and Paul were visiting. She lost that one while eating like the first one. I hope the tooth fairy can keep up with this girl. She is going to be toothless before kindergarten at this rate. Actually her 2 permanent teeth have already come in on the bottom.

Amy's Dance pictures

These pictures were taken by my friend Jaymie. Amy was not being very cooperative but she still was able to get some good pictures. Amy hates to show her teeth, just like her dad. I think it is hereditary because everyone does it on that side of the family. Amy really wanted pictures in her recital costume. They only took one shot at the dance studio.






Parker's 3 year pictures

My friend Jaymie took these of Parker. She was able to get some good pictures of him. I love to see the dimples.

More pictures of Parker

It is hard to see, but Parker is in the shade under the airplane. If you click on the pictures you can see him better.

I love the hands in the pockets.




Trip to Utah

This last weekend I went to Utah with the kids for my sister's wedding. I rode with my parents. I didn't get any pictures the day of the wedding, because I left my camera in the car and I was too busy trying to deal with my kids. The wedding went really well and my sister looked beautiful.

The next day we took the kids to the Hill AFB museum. The boys really liked it but the girls complained about being there. Parker really loved it and kept wanting to get his picture taken.


Little man trying to touch the propeller. He has a few more inches to grow.

Parker thought the big tires were cool.




Trying to get a picture of Tyler and Parker together turned out to be a challenge. Tyler is a bit like Amy and doesn't always cooperate with pictures.


The boys being silly.

Parker inside one of the airplanes. The kids thought is was fun to run up and down the ramp.

On Saturday we spent the night at Gigi and Paul's house. Parker and Christopher were going to a train thing with Robert early in the morning. I love this picture of the kids sitting on the couch. Paxton was a cutie and gave me a big grin, while the others were engrossed in the movie.
Christopher being his regular photogenic self. I can't believe how quickly he is growing up.

BYU-I Education week

My sister and I went to BYU-I education week in Rexburg, Idaho. This was a week before her wedding so it was great that she was able to come. We had such a fun time. The classes were amazing. I can't wait to go again. We stayed in the dorms with several ladies that had been many times. I have so many great ideas that I need to work on now.


We went to the Marvin Goldstein concert. He is a pianist and composer. He was amazing and it only cost $8. He took song suggestions from the audience of about 20 songs and then made a melody of the songs. It was a lot of fun.
