First Day of K




Her little friend Stacy!


 
Since when does she think she has red hair?
So exciting to send Jocelyn off to Kindergarten.  She's be hying to go, so off she went and no one even cried.  I probably will when Brooklyn leaves the nest however, when I become a part-time-empty-nester.   It's not that we love Jocelyn less, she just was so EAGER to leave us and I was happy for her to feel that brave and strong, because 3 months ago, SHE WAS FALLING APART at the idea of me forgetting her.

So needless to say, we're so proud of our little JoJoBear.  She has Mrs. Davenport- the same K teacher Catelyn and Landon had.  So it's "tradition" now.  Hopefully Mrs. Davenport doesn't quit before Brooklyn has the chance to be in her class too.

Jocelyn's attending int he mornings, and has met a new friend, PAIGE.  She's her new BFF and I hear every day about how much she loves PAIGE.  Turned out when we figured out who Paige was, I was happy to tell Jo that she's our neighbor (just in the other ward) and lives only one block away!  And we know their family!  Turns out that Nancy was just as thrilled to finally figure out who "Jo Jo" belonged too as well.  These two silly girls became instant BFFs and they really are so funny together!  I'll have to snag a photo of them this week!

Happy Birthday Catelyn!!!

Happy Birthday Catelyn!!!     Yesterday was you last day as a 6 year old.  Here we go for 7!!! I have picked out a few photos that I love of you, Catelyn, and hope that you know how special you are as you look at this post.   You truly are a Daughter of God and are so beautiful.   We are so glad you are a part of our family! *You love to play outside. *You like math, have struggled with reading, and love recess. *You stood with Amanda in that wedding line for 45 minutes.   *You are a girly girl.  Lipstick, makeup, nail polish and perfume make you happy. *You yell a lot.  We are working on an inside voice. * You seem to want to stop sucking your thumb.  *You love the computer. *You love to shop. *You have one year to be ready for your baptism! *When you fall asleep, you are out like a light! *You love your teacher, Ms. Bair. *You need a bigger bike. *You enjoy watching Phineas and Ferb. *You draw people really well, and ...

The Opposite of Christmas Morning

We are having the opposite of Christmas morning at our house.  No toys.  We have one of these for storing toys: And several of these for the same reason: And last night the kids thought dumping them out for the sake of dumping toys would be fun.  This is a major rule breaker in our home.  I have had problems with this in the past, (even Mykalee knows this) and i have told them if it happens again, all the toys will disappear. And last night, after I found out what they had done, the toys have been grounded.  FOR A WEEK.  I hope it's as devastating as possible, so that they will learn I am serious when it comes to dumping toys out. {Also, Brooklyn is the only one who is exempt from this, as she was in bed.  Innocent.} On a side note, we did get the kids this on Friday.  It was time.  They seem to love it.

Breaking News: Brooklyn

Nothing like getting a sharp poke in the ear. Especially when you're two and an half and ASK for it. When Brooklyn was a baby I went to have her ears done, but decided to hold off, since her one ear lobe was so tiny, and her ears were very different in size. So I waited. For her to grow into her ears. And to grow some hair. Still waiting on the hair part, so earrings seemed like a great idea. She asked for them, and since we both wanted them, we went and got them. She picked out a pair, and viola, it was done. She said, "Owwwww!" once, and then laughed when the lady gave her a sucker and began modeling for me and Kyle.  All to show off her new earrings! Yup, seriously, she loves them.  It's pretty stinking cute.  She is constantly telling me, each time we clean and rotate them, "Mom, never take them out, 'kay?" Okay. Deal. And I did mention that we are waiting on some hair, but some is sprouting. So we're hopeful! See, she...
