Memorial Day Weekend






We didn't go anywhere for the weekend since we are awaiting Ada's surgery, but lucky for us neither did our neighbors! First Mason and Andy went to the Father's and son's Friday night. Then we pitched our tent in our neighbors back yard. The Wimmer's , Johnsens, and Kmetzsch's had a modified camping trip. This is the only way to go, being that Ada and I got to sleep in our own beds, while Andy slept out with Cole, Mason, and Sydney. Ha ha! We had a campfire, ate smores, had a pancake breakfast, the works! I wonder what the poor people are doing? We love our neighborhood!

Ten Pounds

Ada finally broke the ten pound mark! (I wish people would get excited when I gained 10 pounds!) We went to the cardiologist today and she weighed 10lbs. 2 oz!! She had another sedated echo and everything looked good. The cardiologist is optimistic that she will do well. So its a go for June 12. Now we just need to keep her healthy until then. She is the best baby. She just rolls with it. Mason is the best. He is always on the watch out for her.

FINALLY!



Mason finally lost a tooth. He was so excited. It had been hanging out of his mouth, with the new tooth growing in behind it. It was bugging me and he would not let me pull it out. Until one night I chased him downstairs to his room, tackled him to the floor only to loosen it. The next day I was able to get a better hold of it and was able to pull it out. I couldn't tell if he was excited about it at first since it did bleed a little, but when he returned home from school he had a lot to say about being able to write his name on the tooth board at school. I love this kid!!
