I'm the best!! hehe

My email to Jeff: (and since Jeff never reads our blog - here's my secret: my homepage for my browser was covered in information about the game, I didn't remember on my own........haha!)

 

Did you record the game tonight? Do you know what time it starts and what channel it might be on?

Going to the dentist in about 40 minutes....well dropping the kids off at Bundys and then going to the dentist.... can't wait. :)

Jeff's response:

I have the game set to record. 

Thanks for remembering Opening day of football.

I think I might cry!  You’re the best :)

 

Good luck at the dentist.  Give me a call with the results.

 

Going to the dentist

After 5 years, it's time to head back and just in time. Yesterday a small piece of my tooth broke off (leaving a hole in my tooth) while I was chewing gum.....The last time I went to the dentist was for a root canal and post/crown to be put in. Nips are not a favorable candy of mine anymore..... I think this time around, my teeth took a beating from all the ice I consumed during the last 4 months of pregnancy. So good times I get to go back - hoping for a quick fix and no root canal this time around. BTW - I'm a horrible patient for dentists and eye doctors......sorry I just am, hate going to both of them.

First day of Preschool

It's only fair that Lucas get his moment of the first day of school. :) Starting pre-K with Miss Janna at Happy Meadows Preschool. He loves going and is happy to go as long as he can wear his big pants, cool shirt and BYU hat - shoes and socks are a must as well. He does not believe in wearing shorts or sandals......despite my protest every day to get him to wear those items. Lucas wants to be just like his dad who gets to wear pants, shoes and socks every day. Whatever, I give up - I'm just glad he loves school and loves to learn. :)

Grandma Judy's car - she was here on baby Ammon duty. :)

New song

While driving to Wickenburg yesterday for my niece Ashley's baptism, Abbey was singing this song (do you know it?)

Gingle bells,

Pre-baby party

Before Ammon was born, we had a few last fun times with just the 3 kids. Lea and I had a girls night out - she's definitely her mother's daughter......to which I'm sure she will cringe in her later years to hear that, but she is. We went (at her suggestion) to McDonald's for dinner, Target to buy a CD (Kidz Bop), then to QT to buy a drink and some treats for her and her siblings and daddy.  Sweet girl. :)

The other silly kids: Abbey was dressed like Lucas and "talking" on her 'phone' - a number 1 puzzle piece. Lucas - he's just silly. :)

Visitors

Grandma Judy came to help for 2 weeks; Eric, Sharolyn & Kaibrey came to visit; and Grandpa came to visit too!! Grand total of 11 people in a 1300 sq ft home......we were cozy, but it was so much fun!! :) We welcome visitors at any time!

 Kaibrey, Abbey, Lea, Ammon and Lucas

 FINALLY!

After dinner at Red Robin, we went to the Mesa Temple to visit the Visitors Center - an appropriate thing to do with visitors. haha. :)

We decided to have the kids (Jeff too) get some energy out and run laps in the grassy area outside the visitors center.

 The 'glares' to the right of Lea is Jeff and Abbey

 She really was happy about the running. :)

Ammon's first bath - gross cord finally fell off. He's thrilled....

 3 Risenmay generations

 The brothers spent a lot of time here......every night.

 the girls played close by - Abbey loved having a 'little sister'.

 Isn't she sweet!

Bye Uncle Eric!!
