The Next Lost Tooth

And so, six days later at breakfast on June 29th, Gabby lost her fourth tooth. This was the front right that had been loose since Robert left over three months ago and had been hanging by a thread for two weeks. This was the one we were watching when the other popped out on us. Notice the two missing teeth in this pic. She has two more loose ones, the other front tooth and the lower second right. She'll be opposite this soon.

Lost Tooth

Gabby lost tooth number three on June 23rd. She woke up in the middle of the night and it had come out. I didn't even realize this one was loose! If you look closely you can see it on the lower left. Also note the front right is leaning precariously. That was the one we were watching.

Fun with a Two Year Old

Stick a swim diaper on a two-year-old's head with a bunch of cousins around and see what kind of fun ensues. Everyone laughed until they cried and Sam thought he was the funniest thing ever.

Latest Quilt

Here is the most recent quilt I have made. Actually the only one I have made in the last two years or so. It was a gift for my cousin's baby. And I joke that this was one that could be made in a weekend since I pieced it in a day and quilted it in a day. Only problem is those days were four months apart! I vowed to sew more when Robert left but so far all I seem to have done is sew patches on Gabby's Daisy smock and am still two behind. Maybe I will find time soon - sigh.

Peabody Hotel

Watching the ducks in the fountain of the Peabody.

We took the kids to the Peabody Hotel to see the ducks march in. We went to the roof and saw where they live (boy have they upgraded it in recent years!) and Gram got the kids a drink in the lobby. Afterward, we went to Beale Street and had lunch at the Blues City Cafe. We walked around a little and then took the trolley around and down by the river. It was a very hot day but we enjoyed it.

Pink Palace

Here are the kids enjoying the circus at the Pink Palace Museum in Memphis. We used to go here when we were kids and see it. It is a miniature circus carved from wood that can be put into motion. It's very fun!

Gabby's last day of school

Here's Gabby on the last day of school back on June 11. I made her stand in front of the house and car since we have a different house and car from the first day way back on August 11 in Kansas! Sam was not to be left out.
