Missing teeth

We went to the dentist a few weeks ago for all the kids' checkups and I asked about Ashley's bottom teeth because the spacing was farther apart than usual. They took an x-ray and turns out that she is missing both the baby and adult sets of two of her teeth on the bottom! I will have to get a good picture of her open-teeth smile so I can show you and then all you teeth people (Jana, you were a hygenist, right?) can tell me what they are actually called.

The dentist said it's not a problem and most kids have problem with spacing when they get to be teenagers anyway, so it may work to her advantage. We will wait about 10 years and then we will see if anything needs to be done like implants, etc. It is definitely an identifying characteristic! It doesn't look any different at first glance, but you sure can tell after a while.

New family picture!

These are some pictures taken from Naomi's wedding:

One of the family pictures taken--I couldn't put all of them on, but I am still up in the air about which one I like the best!

Here are a few shots of the kids. First, the boys with Brian (cousin) just chillin' and then Kaylee with Alison (cousin) getting some refreshment. It was a long day!

Finally, here is Ashley "in training" to be a princess bride!

3 down, 1 to go.....

Ashley (2 1/2)has been working on potty-training and she has been so fast! I think it took her 4 days to catch on during the day, and just yesterday I got her dressed after breakfast and her Pull-up was dry from all night!!! Yahoo!

Now, if I can only get my 5-year-old to catch on..... :) Any suggestions are welcomed, but more than likely I have tried it already!
