Teagan updates.

Teagan-

She has gotten 2 new pair of glasses, she was complaining she couldn't see out of her glasses, and now she can see. She has started to turn into a little young lady. She has training bras (yikes) and is always playing with her cat Kiko. I didn't sign her up for softball this summer, because she didn't want to play, and I thought we would be out of town alot. She is enjoying playing with her Nintendo Ds, and her brother. They fight like cats and dogs, but she cares a lot for him. We go on bike rides, walks and go to the pool. I didn't sign us up for any amusement parks this summer, because I ama mean mom..(JK) She flew to Tucson with me and Cade on June 28th, she met her little cousin Cole, and had a blast with all of the boys out there that Amy's stepmom to. Teagan really had a great time with Aaron he is a week older then her, and Cade had a blast with Ethan and Taylor who are 7 and 8, and Cade is bigger then the 7 year old, and as big as the 8 year old. Teagan went to El Paso for my brother's wedding. She had a lot of fun swimming in the hotel pool, it was a indoor/outdoor pool and the kids had to swim under a glass wall to get to the outdoor pool, they loved it. After we got home, Teagan has been to the Dr. She is 56 in tall and 85 pounds. She had to get a shot, and wasn't happy about that, but afterwards asked me if getting her ears pierced would hurt like that. I said probably less. This has been an on going battle for me. I really want her to get earings, she has no desire to do it. but as I have always said, I want it to be her choice, her body, she can make this decision. She also has no cavaties, but the dentist said she is starting to get some over-crowding in her mouth which means she needs to loose a few teeth, but for the most part her teeth are really straight on the top, a little crooked on the bottom, but she is a great little kid. We are going to get bank accounts today.

My cousin has moved here now, so on occasion we hang out with him. That is who is in the Boulder hiking pic..That is at Flagstaff.

Wednesday

Today the kids went to the dentist..No cavaties yay! Even with all the junk food, late night sodas they drink etc, I'm happy about that. Today I took the kids to the library. No special reason, just to get some books before my Dr appt. Well the library is all new here, and has a really nice kid area, and all these computers. It's so much nicer then our old library! They even gave the kids scrapbooks, real rectangular 3 ring books, and pages to insert about their summer plans, all about summer. And they got a good size book bag to bring their books home in. (I'm sure our taxes paid for these) Cade found all these comic books, and Teagan also got comic books, and a few chapter books. The new library even lets the kids check out their own books, and is totally worth the trip! We will be going back soon. Later the kids had to wait for me at the Dr. I felt horrible, since the Dr was running 1hr and 15 min behind! Cade was running up and down the hall, and I just about left as the Dr walked in. After that we went to Sonic and then home. Phew..

Summer so far...

Our days have been full of basically nothing. We get up, we go to the gym, we have been to the pool each day this week. cade is finally learning how to swim. He does really well with diving to the bottom now to retrieve sinking toys. We have seen Marmaduke (okay movie wouldn't spend a ot of money on that one, we have seen Shrek whichever number it was, I didnt care for that, we have seen Prince of Persia (great movie) and also Iron Man 2. Con also took the kids to see Robin Hood. Today I took the kids to Jumpstreet, an indoor trampoilne place. They have 3 seperate trampoline areas, the kids maily played dodge ball the entire time. Both got hit in the head, and both were crying at one point but they kept going back in for more..We went to day because it was 10 buck Thursday, 2 hours for 10 bucks. The kids were sweating, and really tired aferwards! Then we went to the pool, butit started to rain on us, so we left. Then we went over to our friends house to see her little baby bunny, and of course my kids had to bring their new kittens...I will post more of the aventures we go on. I have a list of random things I want to take them to that we have never been to before.
