Preschool Graduation

By
So obviously this is over 2 months old... but the kids graduated from Preschool!  Woo Hoo!

It was just a short preschool program, only about 12 weeks so not a major difference in these first day vs. last day pictures but there was a huge difference it what they learned and how they acted.  School taught the kids a lot of thing but the things I noticed the most were:

Raising hands to speak
Sitting Criss-Cross-Applesauce
Major increase in Creative Play

I am so glad we had the opportunity to be a part of this program, it really is awesome!  The kids were so sad when it ended and are extremely excited to go back next year!

The High School students put together this adorable graduation program complete with the band playing Pomp & Circumstance and the kids marching out in their cap and gowns.  Adorable!  Em of course refused to wear her cap or gown and really had no desire to participate at all, little stinker.  By the end of course she was back to her old self, posing for pictures with all the teachers and running around with a huge smile on her face, just not for the little ceremony.


They recited the words to a cute song, I wish I could remember what it was called and then called the kids up one by one to slide down the slide and receive their diploma.

P-man did great!

Em protested the whole way.

They also made adorable little awards for each kid.  
Emily got "Little Miss Sunshine"
Parker got "Mr. Smiles"

Here P is with their buddies.  So fun to go to school with their friends but they also made many new friends too!

So proud of my little man! 

Love this little girl, stubbornness and all!

After the ceremony we got to play, eat, and visit.  The kids had fun running around the playground with their friends one last time.

 All smiles!  

I loved how great the High School students were.  It was obvious that they each had such a love for the kids.  They all wanted to give hugs and get pictures with them, it was so sweet.


And here the kids are with their Awards, Diplomas, and "Me Book" that they made this year.

Such an awesome program!  Can't wait to do it again next year!

What to pack . . .

By
So now that he really could come ANY DAY I figured it was probably time for me to pack my bag. I of course have one of those "What to bring" checklist, but I was wondering what your thoughts where. Is there anything you wish you had brought but didn't? Is there anything you would have died without if you hadn't brought it? I'm just so clueless! A few tips from you experienced mothers would be greatly appreciated!! I cant believe it is so close!!

Have you noticed?

I need a haircut ASAP! This is me saying, "I'll smile if you ignore my hair." Don't get me wrong, I am really excited I have long hair, I love having long hair , but it needs a little TLC. It has been a few months since I have even got a trim and I am still re-couping from a not so good hair cut. The last few times I have really CUT my hair, not just a trim, I was not pleased with the results. Now it would probably help if I was willing to pay more than $10 for a hair cut . . . but I'm Mrs. High Pockets as my father calls me and it is really hard for me to spend money on my hair. So I need your help! What do you think I should do? Before you make any suggestions you should know: It MUST be able to go back into a ponytail!!!!!!! My hair is STICK STRAIGHT My hair will not curl to save my life (via over night curls, hot curls, even curling irons, they just don't work) I want and need something EASY! I do not like to spend time on my hair and I don...

No Use Crying Over Spilled Milk . . .

By
So being an emotional pregnant woman is definitely taking its tole on both me and Jeff (what a wonderful, patient, and understanding man he is). Saturday morning I was so excited because for the first time in weeks we actually had a morning together. I had planned to make us a delicious breakfast just like my dad always did for me. We had Eggs, Hashbrowns, and even Bacon; we were so excited. So I started cooking the bacon first, knowing it would take the longest. Then when I thought they were close to being done, Jeff started cooking the eggs and I threw on the hashbrowns. Well, needless to say, the eggs finished super fast and the others were not even close. And then to add more to my frustration the pan I was using for the hashbrowns was awful! Despite my many tablespoons of butter the entire thing was completely stuck! I switched pans in the middle to try to save them. In the meantime Jeff ate his eggs so they wouldn't get cold. I insisted on waiting so I could eat th...
