Jadyn and Bodey 8 and 4.

 When you try to blog things 5 months after they have happened, things get confusing.

 I do know:
That sometime I let Bodey eat a birthday pancake.
That Jadyn got a schwinn bike.
That I took 25 cupcakes with ballons in them to the school.
That Jadyn seemed very pleased and happy with those cupcakes.
That Bodey got a fish he named fishy, fishy, fishy. Then later on re-named it Blueberry Jackson.
That on their actual birthday we went to jumping joes with Faith, Alex and Maia.
Sometime we went swimming.
I made a cake that was half pink and half yelllow.

The rest is a blurr. Hence why you should not wait 5 months to blog.

2nd Grade, Kindergarten and Preschool

Maddux was super excited to start kindergarten. It was impossible to be sad because the child was jumping up and down with enthusiasm.

Jadyn was very nonchalant, like oh its another year of school I still have 14 more years ahead of me. Oh yay. (insert her sarcastic voice)

And Bodey was a disaster. Im talking crying every day for 2 weeks straight. Crying in the mornings when Jadyn and Maddux got on the bus. Crying at school. Crying in the car. Death Grip around my neck. Oh Boy! He looks happy in these first pictures, this is before he realized Jadyn and Maddux were not staying at school with him.

Put a Fork in First Grade!

Jadyn is a good student. She tests above average on mostly everything but addition and subtraction. I to this day can't add in my head. Sorry J. Her school is also awesome, I am very happy about the school district we are in. Her principle is named Mrs. Sprinkle and she is great!

She doesnt love to go to school though, even though she does fine, and has several friends. She whines most mornings and has counted down the days til she was out. So she was super excited for the summer. So was I! The last day I told her " today, you can put a Fork in First Grade!" She said "How about I put a knife in it!"

Last day. She really wanted to wear one of her church dresses on the last day. Something I usually never let her wear to school, but I did on the last day, in return for a promise that she would let me take this picture. So there you have it! Now time for SUMMER!! 

Cheer Camp

 I have put Jadyn in all sorts of sports and some of them were like torture for her and for us. I always ask my kids first if they want to play. And if they say yes, and I pay the money... I make them finish the season. Soccer was torture... But thankfully we have found something she loves.

 She is a really good cheerleader. Super Loud. Super Peppy. She was a really excited 1st grader out there.

Now all I hear is "Boom ba boom the Cardinals are here..."

First Grade

 Cream of Wheat with bread is her favorite breakfast. She is not a morning person, yummy breakfasts are a great motivator to get her out of bed.

 She was so excited about wearing the butterfly outfit Grandma Valorie bought her. (the sequins can flip up and down changing the color of the butterfly) So excited about it.

 She seemed pretty tired the first day, but she was also very comfortable and not nervous.

 I was nervous about the bus but she likes to ride it in the afternoon.

 Jadyn coming home is so exciting. Maddux and Bodey run outside to greet her every day.

She had a good first week.

Birthday 7 and 3

Dance

 Jadyn got to perform at the halftime of the highschool basketball game. This is Jadyns best friend Emma.

I asked her if she had fun? She said "I didn't have fun.... I had SUPER FUN!"

Kindergarten

 I remember laying out my clothes on the first day of school. She decided on her favorite white flower shirt, rainbow leggings, and a squirt. She also wanted crumpy hair, and I told her I would make her, her favorite breakfast. She said she wanted pink pancakes. After I hit the snooze button twice this morning, she had her favorite cold cereal instead. (oops.)

 This smile says mom can we be done taking pictures.

And this is when the photo shoot ended. She started hugging Bodey and Maddux and telling them I love you. And thats when I knew I had to get out of there, I gave her a quick hug and ran for the door before I started to cry.
