Amber's First Loose Tooth

 Amber finally lost her first tooth.  Adam and Alice both lost it in the beginning of Kindergarten and Amber lost it 2 weeks after Kinder ended.  I remember that she came up to me and said it felt weird and it hurt and we knew right away that her tooth is becoming loose.  She was freaking out and I remember her best friend Jackson sent me a video about him shooting his tooth out.  Watching that video made her laugh and calmed her down so we made it a mission to go do  the same with her best friend, and we did.  

Her loose tooth was extracted on 6/22.  It has been super wiggly but the root is still in tact.  Amber was ready but nervous.  She said " I was not scared but then got very scared thinking about it".  After dinner, we went to get souffle at Gram in Monterey Park and went to her friend's house to do this together.  They were so happy to see her and we settled in.  It was already late - almost 8PM when we got there.  They got carried away playing together.  Finally we got the nerf gun ready, tied the floss around the bullet and baba tied the other end on her tooth.  Again, she was nervous and even all the kids were too scare to watch it.  That was pretty funny.  When she pulled the trigger, she was startled but was so proud of herself.  All the kids though she was so cool haha. 




clean and painless

Summer 2023 Week 1

 Well, summer officially started and the two girls started summer school.  I was going to have them skip the first week and enrolled them in a day camp but the first day ended to be their last day.  They did get to ride bike home though with the big bro.  I drove behind them and along the side with them and love watching how they took care of each other.  




Adam worked very hard in 4th grade.  In between soccer games, wushu (After school program really doesnt count, piano, and ballet), he maintains to be the top of his class.  He earns high grades and the teachers really say nothing but good things about him.  I cant be more proud to have him in our family.  He is only starting summer school the 2nd half and I am intentionally letting him be bored at home with a few things to do in the mornings and he has been going to the office in the afternoon and helping with repacking welding tape.  He is so motivated to work, learn and he will be the most valuable worker any company can have.


Ashley - loves - bubble - bath.  She loves bathes.  She is talking a lot more now and repeats one syllable words as long as she is in a good mood.  Most important milestone is that she is sleeping through the night and her long stretch is long - up to even 12 hours.  She does still asks for milk and boy is she happy when I give in.  My BFDing journey has officially come to an end.  I loved it because it gave Ashley such a happy and safe place.

Since the girls did not enjoy the day camp at Royal Oaks park, we went to the summer school that we were going to skip for the week.  It has been great since they get to see some of their friends.  They get to keep learning, have a little fun and we get to spend more time with them.  They are so perfect right now and wish I get do more fun things with them. 

Alice got to finally do a gymnastic class and on Friday we just stayed home for dinner. Scott went to Miami this week for 3 nights and of course it was the same week where Ashley was teething.  Sunday is father's day and we did a swim/bbq the cousins which Adam loves.  I also set up a balloon dart wall whcih was fun for the kids.
