Last weekend I had updated that Brynn was practicing riding her bike without her training wheels. She came so far in such a short period of time. It was pretty exciting. So, as promised, we set out to find her a bigger bike, without training wheels. Daddy found some nice used ones on Craig's List, and Brynn said she didn't mind if she got a second-hand one. We told her we'd pay for the whole bike then and she could use the money she had saved for a new bike for a scooter or new helmet or something like that. She has been riding her new bike every day that she's been home since the day she got it. She and Daddy have already logged a lot of miles in the past week and a half.

| I love the look on her face in these pics. She is so excited and proud. |
At HopeKids this past summer she had made this Redhawks sign. Probably when they had gone to a game. I thought she did really well on the drawing of Hawkeye. Here is their official logo for comparison.
More excitement: within the same week of learning to ride her bike without training wheels and getting a new bike, Brynn finally lost her first tooth. She has been waiting so long as she has watched her classmates and friends start losing their teeth back in Kindergarten. She had showed me that it was a little wiggly one day, and she must have really been working on it a lot, because Wednesday last week she came home from school and it was out!

On Saturday, Dana and I attended a wedding in Baxter, MN, so the girls spent the night at my parents' cabin. Brynnie had some good luck fishing with Papa Kim.
Us at the wedding. This was the last one of Dana's college friends to get married. It was a good time.
My mom was laughing at how Clara mothers her baby doll. It is pretty cute and funny, so I finally got some video of her with her baby tonight.
