Family: All definitions of




‘Succo family fun night’- a designated game night that my mother made up for us kids- was exploded into a week long vacation including any family member that would come to the coast.
we had a lot of Monkeys jumping around , I don't think i've laughed that much at a mini family reunion.
The weather was magnificent nearly all week with blue ocean water, sunny skies and rainless days. which lead to alot of outdoors activities: hiking, walking, swimming, beach combing, and shopping . Shopping . Shopping!
i really love the coast, it is one of my very favorite places to be. there is something about that ocean that demands attention. Funny, I don't think emma noticed.
The only problem with this vacation was how homesick emma and I were
Perhaps I can talk to my husband about a small above ground pool for the new house. . . the only problem is even a small pool would use up the whole pack yard!
I FINALLY got a picture of Emma’s two teeth. I’ve been trying to get a picture for at least a month now. It’s funny, I get a picture of the these first two teeth the moment her third one is coming in.
Time will tell if this one on the top in the middle (her left) will push through for real. We’ve been working on this one for a while now.
She is sneaky with trying to use her pearly whites. She is starting to master picking things up off the floor with her finger and thumb. She promptly sticks whatever she gets into her mouth! I look over while in the middle of something else and see her mouth chomping.
"EMMA! What did you put in there?!"
I go fishing in her mouth but usually whatever she put in there is too small to find.
She has successfully munched a Cheese-it cracker, part of an Apple, part of a Fortune cookie, and some cooked carrots.

This Memorial Day Weekend our family went to visit the Oldfield clan in California. Our newest niece was born about two months ago and was blessed that Sunday.
We were blessed to stay at Grandma Sandi’s house. Unfortunately Grandma was away on vacation in another state.
While at Grandma’s Emma could NOT leave her globe alone. I finally just let her play with it which led to these very cute pictures.
Spencer kept stealing Rylee’s binky. I can’t tell if Emma is trying to take it back to give to Rylee or trying to steal it for herself!
