It was a crazy busy day at the Phoenix Children’s Museum and we all survived! The kids had a blast and Kade didn’t want to leave. Kade taking his girl for a ride!
Playing weights and measures with the beans…
Kade lost his first tooth yesterday. It has been loose for a while and on Tuesday it was barely attached to his gum. Here is a pic of what it looked like then. I just realized that his face was a MESS when i took this. Oh well!
During lunch yesterday he said he pulled it out, must have had some friends rooting him on because I have been trying to get him to pull it out for a while. (I was the kid that as soon as the tooth was just a little loose I would have it out later that day.)
He kept telling us that the tooth fairy was going to bring him $100! Not the tooth fairy that comes to our house. So this morning when he woke up sure enough he had $1 under his pillow. I am pretty sure in the next week or so the tooth fairy will be coming again. The other bottom front tooth is just about ready to come out!
Summer flew by too fast. I was surprisingly one of those that was school shopping at the last minute. For some reason I kept putting it off and putting it off. It’s hard to believe I have a first grader! He is excited to start school and Kamryn doesn’t know what to do without him, she is driving me bonkers! Today when we dropped him off she cried. I guess she is going to have to play with Keegan. I was kind of glad Ryan took him to school on the first day because I knew I would get all emotional and start crying because he is growing up!
Here is Kade on his first day with his friend Shane.
We did a bunch of other things but I only really posted things I actually took pictures of. Too lazy to write it all out. Kade got to have some much needed playtime outdoors for a change. It’s too hot in AZ to play outside for more than 5 minutes at a time. He got to go to the local pool twice and had a blast swimming. I am glad he has finally gotten used to the water!
Here are a few other random pics I wanted to post…
Keegan was loving the Playschool Dollhouse people and driving them in the car. He loved all the dogs too at all the grandparents house…oh yeah and the cats at Grandma Anita’s too!
He loves to sweep and mop…So if anyone needs a helper let me know! I will let you barrow him for a day! He is really cute and gives out hugs for free and likes to be paid in food!
Kamryn hanging out with Ashee (Ashley).
I wish I would have taken more pictures…Oh well! It was so much fun to visit. We got to see my grandparents too and Ryan was able to hang out with a few friends and golfed A TON! Wish we were still there in the cool weather. My computer says it’s 101 degrees right now but I am pretty sure it’s a lie. I was just outside and it HAS to be hotter than that!
We headed down to Kaysville to go to Boondocks one day. It was a lot of fun especially for Kade and Daion! They got to ride go-carts and actually drive them. They didn’t want to stop! The next day they asked if they could go back again. By the way there is much more to do there than ride go-carts…but that is what we did most of the time! Kade would put both his hands in the air making a peace sign when he would go on the straight-aways and yell, “Whoo-hoo!”
While we were up in Utah we were able to be at Maleaha’s baby blessing! She is sooo cute and I am glad we were able to be there for it. She has got the cutest little chubby cheeks and always had a smile for me! Wish we were in Utah so we could get the kids together more often.
Once we got back to Utah we did family pictures with my family Friday night and then after that Ryan took Kade up to the Porcupine Dam camping area that his Dad and Step-mom were camping at to stay the night. The next day Ryan came back to pick up me and the little ones to go back up to the campsite.
Here is Kade not wanting to take the helmet off and trying to drink with it on…not a good idea! He loved getting 4-wheeler rides from Grandpa Ron and Daddy.
The bottom left picture is of Kamryn being Rappunzel with flowers in her hair. She kept saying,” Ruppunzel, let down your hair!” We had a lot of fun hanging out with Ryan’s Dad’s side of the family and eating some delicious food! Maybe in a couple years Kamryn and Keegan will actually be brave enough to actually camp…or maybe I should say I will be brave enough to camp with them?
I don’t have very many pictures of our last day in MT. I forgot to get them off Ryan’s Mom’s camera. Here are a few of Kamryn in her new boots and on our drive back to Utah.
(Updated with a few more pictures!)
Thanks for letting us come visit! Love you all!
