Our first time off track was a success. We call this "second summer", even the weather was obliging. Everything we wanted to do during our real summer just doesn't happen in three weeks. So having this nice time off was great.
Eden's second round of getting cavities filled was successful. She made me laugh when it felt itchy on her tongue. Evverything was "just so itchy mom". She has great teeth and is good at brushing, but her molars are pinchy in the back and it is pretty tough to get the floss in and out.. Those cavity bugs love pinchy spaces. I am going to have to help get back there to clean them better.
MayLee played on the floor while they worked on sister sue's teeth.
Grandma is the best Asher holder
duck face
I couldn't tell you why his hair looks like this, but he doesn't seem to mind too much.
We love to party..
Asher got his pictures taken by the fabulous Bethany Bee. A new and upcoming photographer. She did an incredible job.
Notice that she is sporting her amazing biking gloves?
We went to a fundraiser for a little sweety fighting a battle against the unknown. Food was yummy and the concert was awesome.
Way to go Basement Walls.
On Monday the 24th Alex had clinic. The girls got to play at the club house at PCH. It was so nice to have Maylee be able to go in too. She had to be potty trained in order to go. Whew!!! She loves playing there. Shee didn't want to leave. Clinic was nothing but great news. Alex's Echo looked great, his labs looked awesome. We lowered meds too! After our appointment we went to the downtown library. This glass elevator is so Charlie and the Chocolate factory. It made me a little nervous to ride it. Clearly May was the most nervous.
We went on our first family camp out. Everyone slept pretty good until May got cold in the middle of the night. Then Daddy and May ended up in a sleeping bag together. I can't believe how much it takes to get us on a camp out. FOR ONE NIGHT!! We were too busy having fun to take photos until we were in the car on the way home. I couldn't believe that the leaves had already begun to change colors.
We had a few lazy mornings.
We hung out with this little yummy boy
The kids were able to swim in our neighbors pool.
We also went to Classic Skating (yeah baby)
The kids were more excited to do the bounce houses then skate.
It seems like there is something to do for everyone. Even take a little snooze.
The girls wanted to try out the mask. Eden keeps me in line on what's (in her words) fashionable.
I wasnt joking when I said this little guy can fire hose. This week he actually got his eye... I need to make some of those little pee pee tee pees...I wasnt taking this photo to document the peep. I was really trying to show that this little outfit that fit so perfectly is a 9 month outfit. WHAAATTT my baby is not even three months and is wearing a 9 month outfit... I think it was tagged wrong,
Papa Homer and Gator went on a Day date. Alex loved getting up close to some of the exhibits, do't worry he got special permission. He has so much fun hanging out with his Papa.
Asher is daily working on putting on weight and growing.
Surprise
Ry turned 11, and went back to school the same day. We got Kneaders to take for lunch. She wanted ring pops for her class treat. Daddy made homemade chimichungas for dinner that were super yummy. Happy birthday Ry, you are so amazing in so many ways.
This little miss just started her first year in dance. She has an oxygen tank that sits at the side of the studio, a 25 ft. hose, amazing teachers willing to take on a special lung kiddo and lots of excitement.
We had a great experience at Courageous Kids. Each kid got to try all the track and field events. Alex absolutly loved the long jump. He must have got in line 15 times.
Ry really liked running fast for short distances, she crossed fifth in the 600 meter. MayLee loved throwing the javelin and Eden liked the art table. Eden liked running but she is definitely my little budding artist.
his new heart is treating him good....
Grandma and Papa came to be with us. I put them right to work holding baby and running around with kiddles... They saved my bacon. Sometimes I get to events/activities and think "what the heck was i thinking?"
Each child was awarded a medal. BYU track and field students were so amazing for giving up one of their nights to come help kids like mine try something new. Thanks!
It doesn't end.... Eden started Preschool. The night before she puts this under her pillow, a gift from Miss Joey that is supposed to help her sleep. She kept calling out, "it's not helping, I am still too excited to sleep"
She had a blast!!!
I am officially caught up until tomorrow.
