More Missing Teeth
February 25, 2010
Amelia has now lost six of her baby teeth…
Here I was trying to get a last few pictures of her with her baby top teeth.
She started losing her bottom teeth the day she turned 5 and a half (about ten months ago) and had thus far lost three of them.
February 1st she lost her first top tooth.
Three days later she lost the other top one (on February 4th)!
Two and a half weeks later, she lost her 4th bottom tooth!
So she has now lost 6 teeth, three of them this February. I remember when she started getting teeth at four months old, someone said “Before you know it, they’ll be falling out,” and we were like, “Yeah, okay, whatever.” Well, it’s here. I’m not sure how I feel about that.
In other news, Ben and friends mounted a digital projector from the ceiling of the chapel and also a screen for it. He has a switch back at the sound system that he pushes to lower the screen out of the ceiling remotely, and put it away again. Very exciting! (screen not pictured)
That’s not her elbow in the above picture, believe it or not. That’s a bump she got at ice skating lessons. I love her pathetic expression!
Ben and I got to church one morning and realized we had dressed alike! I don’t know that I’ve ever worn jeans to the chapel on a Sunday morning before–but it was very cold and snowy! When we got home, Amelia took some pictures of us in our matching sweaters, jeans, and boots.
My friends Lori & Diane at Lori’s baby shower:
Amelia wore her favorite dress to the shower and when we arrived, her friend Faith’s family informed us that Faith has the same dress! Faith’s dad was going to be the guest speaker at our chapel the next day, so we planned for the girls to wear their matching dresses to church.
Amelia was excited to have Faith attend Sunday school with her and to sit with her at lunch afterward!
This past weekend we hosted my mom’s cousin Ben Scripture and his wife Karen. Ben was giving a creation conference at our chapel. Sadly this is the best picture I have of him! We went to eat at Red Robin–Amelia loves getting a balloon to take home.
oh dear, which of the twin girls is really yours? The taller one is my guess. Cute.
yes, i’ll claim the taller one with the missing teeth!
Children grow up before you know it.
Love
Grandchildren grow faster than their parents, or so it seems.
Great grandchildren even more rapidly, at distance keeps us from seeing them
very often.
The Moral: Enjoy every minute with them and store that in your memory.
Each one is unique and very special.
Love the dresses (of course). I’m not ready for losing teeth yet. We still have teeth coming in – although I’m guessing those stages are going to overlap.
Hi all,
So glad calendar was appreciated (even if late)
Photos are great, closest thing to being there.
Amelia is darling, looks good even with missing
teeth. She is so tall!
