OPEN HOUSE NIGHT !

We had our very first open house tonight. Maddison got to take us all around her school and she felt so grown up and proud of herself, which she should. We met in the gym and all you heard were the kids saying "She's in my class, he's in my class", but when you asked them their names they had no clue. Maddison is familiar with one boy, whose name is Tiernen. She didn't know at first that he goes to her daycare but, oh boy when she found out they are now BFF . So you can only imagine when we put Maddison, Matthew(aka-Buddy) and Tiernen all in the same room then add Mackenzee to the mix, the whole school fell down : ) I'm just kidding, they all were pretty good. Well, Maddison got to show us her desk in Spanish class and she was so proud, again, she should be, seeing how she just got the privilege of it because she has had to sit by herself ever since the second day of school. I guess she is a talker (My child? Never! : 0) We all had a great time and afterwards everyone went back to the gym and had ice cream sundaes. I did get some great pictures of Maddison, Mackenzee, Matthew, Kimee, and Tiernen.

SECOND WEEK OF SCHOOL AND ALL IS WELL !

I'm happy to report that Maddison is doing so well in school.This week Maddison found out what home work is. She has about 10 minutes of it 4 days a week (I think it's crazy in kindergarten but at the same time good for her). We were sitting at dinner tonight and Maddison started singing a song she just learned yesterday . It was so wonderful and she sang it twice and Mackenzee caught on, now we all can sing it. They are both sponges and catch on quickly to ANYTHING. Well Mackenzee is doing very well also she kind of likes her alone time with us. On M0nday I started to watch a friends daughter a few days a week so that helps with keeping Mackenzee busy. Well here are some pictures from the end of last week and so far this week.

More of Kenzee and Me at our special day

Mackenzee's Mommy and me day !

Today was Maddison's second day at school and I wanted to do something special with Mackenzee because she was feeling kind of sad when we dropped her sister off; she wanted to stay so bad. Well I took Kenzee to the zoo today and we had so much fun. We did anything that she wanted to, and she loved it. She is such a little model; she let me take all the pictures I wanted. Also, it was kind of early to eat lunch but I was a cool mom and let her have an ice cream cone before she ate lunch( I know, I know I won points there!).

SHE MADE IT !!!!!!!!!!!!

Well I know I'm putting it up a day late but it's proving harder than I thought to keep up as soon as things happen, there's just not enough time in the day. Anyways, I picked up Maddison and she was so happy, the first thing she said (in front if everyone) is " it was awesome Mom!" What a relief for me. Even though I'm still kind of unsure about this whole school thing. Well, today was her second day and I'm happy to report that she was still so happy and loves it. Something that's worrying me is the whole lunch thing, she didn't eat again today. At least I know she is so into school, I'll just have to keep my eye out on her and her not eating. Here are some pictures of her after school. The only ones I got were of me trying to wake her up 30 min. after she fell asleep as soon as she got in the car; needless to say, she begged me to leave her alone : )

Kenzee just realized that we leave with out Maddison.

MADDISON'S FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL !

Well, it's official... my daughter is in kindergarten! I'm proud to say that I made it with out many tears (well, that Maddison saw anyway). It is now 9:40 am and she has been there just about an hour and I'm truly ready to go get her. I know, I know, it's something that everybody has to do and i'ts part of life, but I just wish my heart didn't hurt so much about it, that's all. Well enough of me, I'll get back to the star of the day, my baby girl. Maddison woke up not wanting to as usual ,she is so not a morning person, unlike her sister. Well, once that was accomplished, I tried to get her to eat a big breakfast which, as usual, is not her strong point, unlike her sister : ). So we then moved on to a bath and getting dressed. Then Maddie finally comes too and starts to get so excited and can't wait to go to school (it's about time, this whole time I'm and a train wreck with out telling Maddison and she could take it or leave it about this whole school thing but I so wanted her to be excited and now she is ). To Maddison and Mackenzee',s surprise Grandma Day stopped by...so, cool of her. I think I needed her more than they did : ) Well we get to the school and it's a mad house - so crazy. We take her to her class room and then it's over, she slips away with out missing a beat; but me, on the other hand, still not so thrilled with ANYTHING. This too shall pass ,right ?? So here are some pictures of this morning and I will definitely post later to let you know how her very fist day went I'm sure she'll have so much to share. Until then .....

I wasn't finished....here are some more!

So I'm just learning how to do this whole blog /picture / post thing and I wasn't done putting pictures up on the last one but it told me I had too much, so I'll just put this up with more pictures.... so enjoy!

Ricky Lee We Miss You !!!!!

So these picture are too perfect not to share them with everyone, plus they give my the chance to tell how much I miss my baby brother. (: I know, I'm know weird huh? : ), but its true! : ) There's not a day that goes by that he isn't mentioned in our household. Usually it's "I miss Uncle Ricky" followed by lots of tears, by the girls of course. Well Ricky Lee, if you ever see this, I hope you know we miss you and love you tons, AND ARE SO PROUD OF YOU !
