No Training Wheels

We had been trying to convince Addelyn to try riding her bike without training wheels, but she would kind of freak out about it.  Then one day after playing with our neighbor girls who are 9 and 11 she told me she didn't need her training wheels any more.  So, off the came.  She learned so fast is now a total pro! 

Addelyn's First Sleepover

My friend, Camille, had her baby boy and we got to have Madison and McKenna stay with us.  The girls had so much fun!  Addy was so excited to finally have a sleep over with Madi. I got some cuddle time with Kenna, Addy and Madi slept great, we went and got FroYo, and went to the library.
We were happy to help and so glad their baby brother made it.  He is so, so cute!

Annual Portland Trip

Every year Tyler has a dental conference in Portland.  It is a great time for us to catch up with a lot of our friends that are still in the area!  This year was a lot of fun.  We brought Addy with us and had tons of fun!  While Tyler was in classes all day, Addy and I, went to the Zoo, the Children's Museum, and the mall.
We met up with my friend, Shari, from college and her two kids at the zoo.  We had a lot of fun catching up and Addy loved the animals. 

After the zoo, we met up with dental school friends at the Children's Museum.  We loved seeing our old friends!  Addy had so much fun with Spencer, Nellie, and Theo, after she warmed up of course.  It's crazy how much all of the kids and families have grown since we left dental school 2 years ago.  We just love these people so much!

At the mall, after shopping we had to get a picture of these crazy kiddos.  

We then went to John and Mal's for dinner and to just hang out.  Such a fun time!  So glad that we met such wonderful people while we were in dental school.

Piano Lessons

Tyler started teaching a few kids piano lessons.  He does them Wednesday nights and Friday mornings.  He enjoys it and his kids are really good, fast learners!  He is also teaching Addy.  She is picking up so fast on it!  I am so impressed and so glad that she begged him to teach her.  Hopefully she will take after her daddy and develop a love for playing.

Field Trip to the Fire Station

We got to go on a field trip to the fire station.  In Hermiston, the ambulances and fire trucks are kept together.  Addy had such a good time!  They got to go in the back of the ambulance, in the cab of the fire truck, and spray the hose!
