Ambry 3rd lost tooth!

Ambry could not have been any happier to have finally lost one of her top teeth. Her Poppa pulled it out for her much to her surprise. But it was over quickly with no tears, just one very excited little girl.

Ambry and I also finished our first 500 piece puzzle together. Although I have to say that I think on the next one, she is going to have to chip in a little bit more time. :)


This week has also began quite busily for me. I canned 42 pints of pineapple and 17 quarts of applesauce. The applesauce isn't pictured because I was too exhausted to get out the camera to take another picture. Plus I think most people already know what canned applesauce looks like and you don't need to see another boring picture of that. :)

And last, but definitely not least, congrats to our friends Dustin and Robyn who had their baby last night. A little girl named Kaitlyn Elizabeth. We can't wait to see her and you guys!!

Round 4 of vacay pics. And this is it. Lots and lots all one post but at least this is the end of them. :)
Racky on the boogie board.


One more pic of Racky on the boogie board.


Ambry on the boogie board.




Ambry wiping out. She made it up on her knees and she was so bummed that I didn't get a pic of her doing that. Unfortunately this is all I got. Sorry Ambry!

The girls by the "lava with the money in it" as Piper called it. It really was just water with red lights in it and people threw coins in there.

Lula, Piper, and Ambry on our last morning there.
Piper and me with our coffee. Yes, Piper really does have coffee in her cup. Yes, it is less than a quarter full. Yes, I know coffee is not good for you. All of that aside, I love these pics of her and me. I think it is cute. "Momma, can I PWEASE have toffee with milk with you?"



Ambry completely zonked out on the ride home holding one of her favorite library books.


Piper simply folded right over taking a nap.


And our last view of half of the water park. Yes, that is how big this place was. There were more slides around the back of the building and this is maybe half of the building. That isn't counting the rooms! Gigantic I tell you!
And this concludes the pics of our mini vacay! One, or should I say, two things we learned while on vacay...both of our children get carsick. Such a bummer, but at least we know now.

Thanks Esther and family for letting us tag along on vacay! We had a blast!

Round 3 of vacay pics: A night(s) at the arcade. Seriously forgot how much fun those could be!

Caleb and Piper playing a game. This was one of Piper's favorite games. One would think after playing it about 5 times she would remember to throw it underhand. But, oh, no. She would whip that ball overhand and everytime whack the cage and it would come flying back at her. If you could have seen the look on her face when that happened. Both her hands would go on her hips, she would stick out her rear end, and get this furious look on her face. I laughed every time!


Ambry playing the ball game. She LOVED this game too!

And the absolute favorite game of everyone's was Deal or No Deal. You could win up to 100 tickets on this game but it was just so much fun playing it.



Isaac, Racky, Lula, and Biggie taking up all four machines. :) Yeah, I think this was Isaac's favorite game there too.

And last but not least, Ambry won 250 tickets. Can you tell she was excited???


That is it for Round 3 of pics. Round 4 to come later. I think I will be done after that. :)

Round 2: Vacay pics. :) Ready for some more? Too bad if you're not because that is what you'll be seeing anyway. Here are Caleb and Piper going out into the wave pool. Ambry is somewhere way out there. She did awesome with no lifejacket. I couldn't believe how well she did.




Piper and Lettie hanging out together on "the shore".

Piper loved this turtle that shot water out of it's mouth.
I think I told her at least 20 times "Do NOT drink the water!!!"

Here she is sitting on the turtle.

Last but not least, here is Piper floating in the water. She would seriously lay like this for what seemed like forever. You can't see the rest of her legs, but would also cross her feet. :)
And I think that is enough pics for Round 2. Round 3 to come later!

Here are a couple of pics from our mini vacay. We went with Esther and her family and had so much fun! I highly recommend the drive. A little ways but definitely worth it.


Ambry and Piper having a snack on our first night there. Can you see the excitement??



The next morning we went to Pottery Pizzazz which is a little shop where you buy a piece of pottery and paint it.


The 3 girls.


Golfing with Piper and Daddy.


Piper's sweet one-handed swing. :)

Ambry and Piper by the rhinocerus. I love how Piper is checking to see what her big sis is doing. She seems to be doing that a lot lately. Always checks to see what Ambry is doing before she does anything.

All right. Pic overload. Trust me, there are lots more to come. :)

A Saturday night visit to see Uncle Gerrit at his work...





Apparently Uncle Gerrit and Piper couldn't be bothered to look at the camera.


Piper not pleased her pic is being taken.

Piper not pleased her hot chocolate was all gone. Do you see a pattern? :)

All us girls...and once again, Piper not pleased her pic is being taken.


At least this one turned out pretty good.
Roasted marshmallows, hot chocolate, and all of us cuddling together...so much fun!
