Future Dentist?

























Last week I decided Kenna had lost her sweet baby morning breathe....(kinda like puppy breathe...which our dogs have lost LONG ago!) so we have started to brush her teeth in the morning after her bottle. She certainly will not let me stick my finger in her mouth (or anyone else for that matter) but she will allow the toothbrush in there! ha! She will tolerate me brushing a little....but she prefers to do it herself. Can you imagine that? Kenna wanting to do something on her own!?? haha!

Dawn's husband Jamie turned 30 last week. We went to his birthday bar-b-que...and here are some pictures from that night. Jamie...you aren't far in front of me...I turn 30 this weekend!!! September 3rd!!

Kenna is so silly....she makes the craziest faces!! (I don't know where she got it from either!)

Whew...it has been a while!!


Sorry guys for the long break.....but blogger has had some issues. Well we have been busy here at the Prince house. I have been a secret shopper for Services here on base, so I have been trying to get some inspections completed. So far I have "shopped" the auto skills, JR Rockers (a restaurant) and the outdoor recreation. It is pretty cool....because they pay for my services there and then pay me another $10 when I turn in the survey. Works for me!! I went to a pampered chef party this week, had bible study, consigned items at the thrift store, had an anniversary (Happy 4 years honey!!), went to a potluck brunch for the OSC board members, Keith and I had facials for our anniversary, we went to a minor league Red Hawks baseball game & saw a fantastic firework show, took Kieffer to get groomed (he looks a thousand times better), Kenna got her 3rd tooth, and went to Buffalo Wild Wings for our weekly dinner with some guys from church. That was all in just 5 days!!! haha!! Today the whole family went into town to go have breakfast at Village Inn and then we went garage selling. We got a ton of treasures for Kenna....all toys.....but they were steals!! So at least someone made out like a bandit!!

On a very worrisome note, my poor brother had a horrible week. He is a teacher and went to his open house on Tuesday night....and didn't go home until Thursday night. He had a serious seizure, that left him very out of it...and was rushed to the hospital. They ran MRI's, cat scans, ultrasound, and bloodwork....and have not found anything. It is very puzzling. He is only 26.....he is too young to have these kind of problems! He is at home now resting....and I will keep you posted on his progress.

This next week will not slow down any either. It will be a short week and we are off to Medora, ND!! (the #1 vacation spot in North Dakota according to the billboard sign we passed on the way to Fargo last night! haha!) We are going camping in Theodore Roosevelt National Park....and it will be Kenna's first time to camp. It should be an adventure. We are meeting our friends and old neighbors from Utah....Eric & Kathy! We can't wait and I know they will make it even more fun!!

Stupid blog!!

Sorry guys. I haven't been able to post pictures to my blog for weeks now! It is so frustrating! I feel silly just writing and not having pictures....so I wanted to explain the reason for no entries!!!

Scaredy cat... I mean dog!


We have had a lot of thunderstorms come through lately...and poor Kassie is afraid of thunder and lightening. Well, we just got Kenna a new play tent......which she really likes. We have discovered that Kassie thinks it is a good hiding spot from storms....but not Kenna!! You can run...but you can't hide from Kenna!! Even Kieffer likes to get into the tent now!! Who did we buy it for anyway!!????

PS...tried posting the pics and I am having trouble. I will try tomorrow!!

Stop and smell the sunflowers??



This weekend we decided to stop and smell the sunflowers on our way to Fargo. There are fields and fields of them inbetween base and town. Kenna halfway cooperated....she was more interested in eating dirt, grass and rocks. I had to do a finger sweep once to get a little rock out! And Keith wonders why I have nightmares about Kenna choking??!! ha! You know the little spring thing behind the doors to keep it from slamming into the wall....well today she got the little white knob of the end and had it in her mouth!!! And then she turned and found a nickle and was heading for that too!!! UGH!! A mother's job is never done!! I feel more like a paramedic than a mom!! Always trying to prevent injury....I guess that would be more like a lifeguard huh? ha! Anyway.....we had fun shopping in Fargo and came back and chilled.

Keith's Surprise!!



When Kenna and I got home from our trip to Texas....daddy had a surprise for Kenna and I. He had painted Kenna's room!! I was shocked! Who knew he had it in him!! I wouldn't be gutsy enough to try it, and not only did he try, but he did a great job!! I didn't know I had a budding artist as a husband!!. It was very sweet!

Playdate




Kenna and I had a playdate at Dawn's house yesterday and we both had fun! You can see goofy Kenna had to climb her stairs and break them in. She also had her first experience with a sit and spin. She liked it!! As she gets bigger...we will have to look for one!! Thanks Dawn for having us over!!!
