She waited a long time for this day to arrive and here is her new smile...beautiful! I guess I should have uploaded backwards so her pictures would be in order. Ya know, before and after :) This version you get to see the fabulous "now" and just in case you don't remember the metal smile, there it is. Sydney was up and ready so early for her appointment this morning. Guess she was just too excited to sleep any longer...if you see her, I don't think you'll have to ask. She will just show you her smile which is beaming from ear to ear today. Good job on having patience Baby Girl.

Andrea's bridal shower

Today is Andrea's bridal shower, her big day is fast approaching. The theme of her party is "Linens N' Lovelies..."yikes! Sydney said I cannot get her lingerie, absolutely not, it's wrong. She didn't want me to visit the thought that the unmentionables would be worn for Clark and we just can't go to that place. Lol. Okay...so Andrea you will not be getting any cute under things from me. This may be a gift in itself! Sorry :) I will just have to hope your friends get some naughty things to embarrass you. Let the party begin!

this is what we do...


Yep, this is what we do. Lazy days of summer? No, busy days of summer! I must admit our schedule has slowed down, league play is over and we are waiting for playoffs to approach. Jordan couldn't be happier than to be in all that hot, sweaty catcher's gear. When he squats down behind the plate he makes it look so easy and all I can think is how badly my legs would hurt just after one batter, not one inning and certainly not one whole game. Yep, baseball is good.

Paybacks!

Okay my numbers were 15 & 4, just depending on where I was putting it. So if I overlapped do suppose I had 19? I really only spent one day sunning myself, it was the day we were at sea. And I decided to sun my backside since my front is always in the sun when watching baseball. So here's the payback...last year when Steve and I went to Florida I applied his sunscreen and apparently I missed a spot. Well he got a red patch above his shorts on his back. Oops, sorry. He got me back alright, I asked him to lotion my back and I have a crazy camo pattern going on. Bits that were red are now brown. What was slightly tan is now faded...pretty much splotchy. Yikes. Don't know how the sunscreen application is so uneven...do you Seven?!

What's your number?

Maybe you are a 15. Maybe 30. Maybe even 100. No, I'm not talking about your sleep number. I am talking about SPF. We are taking a trip on Monday and I decided on 30, 15 & 4. Different people, different parts and so on. Really I don't even know if a 30 is enough protection but the kids are already balking about wearing any of these. Jordan is Mr. I Don't Like Lotion and I Just Tan. Sydney is determined for me to believe she isn't fair skinned. Bahahaha. Let me just say, we need protection. We don't want to burn and don't want to eventually get skin cancer. Burning alone will take away some of the fun in our immediate future! So figure out your number and pack it! I'm ready to cruise!

How was your Father's Day?

Could we put anymore on our plate for the week? Yesterday we celebrated father's day with a family movie day...Toy Story 3. Yes, it was good. Very good. How is it I can even cry during these animated flicks? Anyways, Jordan was eating? sucking? licking? a Sugar Daddy. "Uh oh." Lost the "repaired" part of his front tooth. I was going to the dentist anyways today so he tagged along. They took a look and said they had time to fix him on Wednesday. Well, he is so-oo-o lucky. Dr. Spangler got done with an appointment early and fixed it today. Yay! Didn't know how we were going to try to fit an appointment in with football workouts, baseball and trip preparations! Well, it's off to Tillamook for two games today. Wish us luck!

Noteworthy

June 11, 2010, a date that is very noteworthy for Sydney. A completion of one phase and yet a transition to another. She was supported by parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins and friends. From our "flirty" teen to our young adult! Congratulations Baby Girl!
