2009 edition

We just got our 2009 blog book in the mail and it makes me SO happy. We love to look at it together as a family and reminisce. I know I say this a lot, but kids grow up way to fast. There are so many things that they do or say that I think I won't forget about, but some how I always do. Keeping up a blog can be hard, but when I get my blog books in the mail, I remember why I blog. So those little moments of childhood won't be lost, but cherished forever. If you haven't made your blog into books yet, I highly recommend it. It is worth every penny, even if you are on a tight budget! Just do it! you will be so glad that you did!

I decided to make a subway art cover for the book. I love how it turned out and it was fun to make! If any one wants help making one, let me know :)

This one is for you, Duke :)

Avery's front tooth finally fell out on Sunday. It has been hanging on by a thread for a few weeks and she wouldn't let us pull it out. She has now lost 4 teeth and has 3 more loose ones. They are dropping like flies I tell ya. The best part about her loosing teeth has been talking to her about my Grandpa Duke. He had a full set of dentures and I always thought it was so funny when he took them out. Every time We would visit him I would beg him to take them out. His response was always "Take one of yours out first, then I'll take out mine." I would wiggle and wiggle and wiggle my teeth in preparation for his visits hoping that one would fall out. I got lucky a few times, and boy were those some happy moments. We would sit on the porch swing together, just hanging out, talking, joking, and laughing at his toothless grin. Oh how his belly jiggled like a bowl full of jelly. I loved his laugh. Thanks for helping me remember the good times Avery! :)
