Week 19 in Pictures

Hello there!  I took an unexpected and unintentional week away from blogging.  I hadn't planned to take time off, it just sort of happened that way.  I was able to get several things accomplished which makes me feel good.  I hate it when things start to pile up around here.

We had lots of activity going on here last week also.  Our kitchen counter top was installed, Doug got new tires on my van, our dining room set came in so we picked it up, and Doug sold his truck.  And that all happened just on Friday!  

Last week I also attended a Tea and a Mother/Daughter luncheon.  I helped a friend with a crafty project, which put me in the mood to dig out my scrapbook stuff and do some scrapping (didn't actually happen though).  Alex went on his first field trip without me (my name didn't get picked in the drawing) and had a really good time.  And I had a photo shoot postponed twice - once because of weather and once because the little boy wasn't feeling well.  :(  We are rescheduled for this week, so here's hoping!

This week will also be pretty busy as we are preparing for our ladies' luncheon coming up this Saturday.  It is going to be fun!  I'm so looking forward to it!  Anyway, on to last week's pictures ...

I had bought these hydrangeas a few days before and just got around to photographing them.

Rainy day.  So I took advantage and photographed some rain drops.  I love that you can see my purple Lupine flowers in the reflection.  Oh, and we saw a double rainbow today, but I didn't have my camera with me to capture it.  Darn!  I knew I should have grabbed it before we left the house.  :)

Alex had been wiggling and wiggling a bottom tooth all morning and it looked really ready to come out.  But he wanted to wait until he was at school to pull it out because the kids get this sweet little treasure box from the nurse when they lose a tooth at school.  Gotta love it when they know what they want and make it happen.  :)

Two double rainbows in one week!  Amazing!  The outer one is very faint, but it is definitely there.  And I was glad to have my camera on me this time.

The reflector set I ordered came today so Keira helped me try it out.  I really need practice with indoor portraits.

As I said, Friday was a crazy, busy day.  The kids didn't have school, which I didn't realize when I scheduled the counter top installation.  It was all good though.  They stayed out of the way of the counter top guys.  And shortly after Doug sold his truck, the store where we ordered our dining room table and chairs from called to tell us they were in.  Thankfully we were able to get one more use out of the truck and go pick the set up.

Keira and I spent the morning/early afternoon at my mother-in-law's Mother-Daughter banquet.  Then Doug and the boys wanted to go fishing in the evening since Doug got his license today.  I didn't get my license yet, so all I did was take pictures.  Doug caught all the fish, much to Nick's dismay.  Oh, and three Great Blue Herons flew over our heads before I had my camera out and ready.  :(

Alex lost another tooth on Saturday but we just got around to photographing the "big gap" today.  You can see his front tooth is already starting to grow in (beside the one that he just lost).  I was hoping his other front tooth would fall out so he would have that sweet toothless grin that kids so often get.  It is wiggly so there's still hope.  But if he loses any more teeth, we'll have to puree his food!  :)

Snaggletooth Alex

When Alex woke up this morning, he showed me that one of his front teeth was wiggly and bleeding.  Shortly after, I left on a field trip with Keira and thought for sure when he got home from school today, he would have already lost the tooth.  But he got off the bus with the snaggletooth still in place.  Barely hanging by a thread.

I talked him into letting me snap a couple photos, since it was pretty funny looking. :)

Nanny McPhee anyone?  :)

He was afraid to pull it out because he expected it to hurt.  I can't really blame him for not wanting any more pain after getting stitches on Tuesday.  But I told him he could be brave enough and try.  And I would reward him with some ice cream.  So he did it!

All by himself!  He was so proud!  And it didn't even bleed.  He was so excited to leave his tooth under his pillow for the Tooth Fairy visit tonight.  (Hope she doesn't forget!)  :)
