These are some random pictures of some silly and cute things that my kids have been doing!

Makyla's dead tooth

The beauty! On December 31st, Brady took Makyla to the dentist for me and he found out that her front tooth was dead. I recalled her hitting her tooth on her bedroom door and complaining about it, but it wasn't discolored so I thought that it was alright. Soon after we found out that it was dead it started discoloring and now this is how she looks. If it keeps getting darker I think that I will ask the dentist to pull it, but for now...we are just grateful that it is not a permanent tooth!

Happy Valentines Day!

I feel so lucky! I got to go to both Makyla and Mason's classrooms for Valentines Day parties. After Mason's party I took the kids to McDonalds for a treat and then we went to a park across town. The kids had a blast and we met some new kids to play with! I forgot my camera for Makyla's party, so here are some picturs of Mason's party.

My grandma Bunny with Merayya

We were planning to make a trip down to see my family in Coos Bay and then Mark's family in Chico sometime in December, but Mark couldn't get the time off until January. We finally got to go in late January. We went down to see my family first and we stayed for 5 nights. My aunt and uncle have a guest suite above their garage and the kids loved to play with my cousins. Then we headed down to Mark's grandma's house. We stayed there for a few nights, and then headed for home. We were so lucky to get to see Mark's cousin's wrestling match one of the nights that we were there. It was such a cool treat! We made the trip home by traveling part way and staying at a hotel for a night and then coming all the way home. We had such a fun time, and we are already planning to go down again this summer.

Two new teeth!

I couldn't really get a good shot of them, but they are there, trust me! :) HELP!!! My mom's trying to look at my teeth!

Merayya has two teeth on the bottom that have grown in. She likes to use them too! LOL! She only bit me a few times and I put a stop to that! If she will let me get some pictures I will post them on here. She always throws my ideas of parenting out the window. Mason and Makyla had no teeth until 14 mos. She has 2 at 11 mos!

Trip with Grandma

My mom was leaving to head to my Grandma and Grandpa's house in Coos Bay, OR. She called me up and asked me if I would like to go too. Since I am finished with school and it was still Christmas break I said "sure!" So, off we went. On our way home we went highway 101 along the coast and stayed in Seaside. It was so much fun. Mason and my sister got to ride on a Carousel and we walked through the shops.
