The Tooth Book

This is a pic of Lyndsay after her bath the other night. She insisted that she wanted me to pull out both of her extra teeth. (Zoom in to see that she has double teeth, on the left and right of her front two. BriAnna had her convinced that if she lost two teeth in one day the Tooth Fairy left double...$2 per tooth instead of $1. So here it is nine o'clock and this kid won't go to bed because she insists on my pulling both of these stubborn teeth. Keep in mind that she hasn't let me touch these wiggly teeth for the past year. We let her permanent ones keep coming, thinking they would crowd out the roots of the baby teeth and they would fall out...No, they have not, and would not...Finally Lyndsay got sick of me yanking on her mouth and went to bed. Last night, at bedtime, it started again. Thankfully, I had loosened it the night before and Ryan suggested I use a piece of floss and POP...out it came. Then her mouth bled profusely for like 15 minutes. That little bugger tooth did not want to give up. But the dentist said we should get them out soon. One down, one to go. Lynds got her $1 last night, but no bonus for double. Sorry about that, kiddo. But not nearly as sorry as I am that we will have to invest in braces for both BriAnna and Lyndsay! Ugh! Hopefully the others won't need braces, expensive!

Oh yes, the reason I titled this post 'the Tooth Book' is because it is Josie's favorite book. We read it...every...single...day! Jo points to her teeth and says "tee." And of course, I packed that book to read to Josie when the girls all went to the dentist. Josie likes looking at everyone's teeth. The girls all smile and point to their teeth, so Josie will say "tee." Perhaps Jocelyn will grow up to be a dentist, like her Uncle Justin.

p.s. to Justin, we joked about you continuing school to be an orthodontist, now the joke is less funny and more practical ;)

Great Clip!

You gotta check out this funny little clip. This just cracks me up. It's great fun, but strangely, it reminds me of that annoying show "The Wiggles."


Can you imagine being an innocent bystander to witness this...Hilarious!?!

Bad Hair Day!


My sister, Jeri, was slightly disappointed (she called me "evil" over the phone and via e-mail) that I posted a not so flattering picture of her back in November. So this one is deditcated to her. Here is picture of me after a bad hair day. This is what happens to moms who lay on their belly to read their kids books...My kids sat on my back and messed with my hair. I had no make-up on and had worn sweats all day, so here is what I looked like after a long day of being walked all over and sat upon.

Mom Goes Ice Skating!

Mom got to chaperone BriAnna's 3rd grade class on their winter field trip. First we went to the Seven Peaks Ice Arena, the cool thing about there was they held Olympic events there in 2oo2! The first pic is of our group together, Mariah, Sadie, BriAnna, Joy, Keana, Chloe!
The next is a picture of Miss Harris' class. The teacher, on the far left, isn't much bigger than the kids.

This was the first time ice skating for both mother and daughter. We fell a few times, but had so much fun! Anyone wearing ankle socks (Joy included) discovered that was a poor choice for ice skating. Thankfully neither Marsh came home with blisters.
Here's our little group at BYU's Monte L. Bean Life Science Museum. Everyone calls it "The Bean Museum", but of course there aren't any beans there, so that can be deceiving!
