Preschool graduation (ll)


Dang she is short!
Maddy graduated preschool for the second time yesterday. They had a cute little program where they sang several songs the kids have learned over the year. My favorite was the one about putting mommy in a box so she could kiss her all day long, and at the end of the song Maddy brought me flower lay followed with a kiss. My heart melted. Her teacher, Mrs. Sweet was the best teacher I can only hope she has equally great teachers in the future. We gave her and the assistant Mrs. Jean a gift certificate, Maddy made them a paper purse to put the certificate in along with a baggy of hello kitty gumballs for each and a paper thing she cut out of the two of them holding hands. I couldn't cut one out if I was paid too, she is already more creative then I will ever be. She also made Trever and I one, here is a picture of it, but she wasn't thrilled with this one because we didn't have enough shoulders LOL
She is so excited that she finally gets to go to Kindergarten. She told me today I'm going to miss her so much when she goes to Kindergarten.

Will they ever look at the camera at the same time?

Last day with that mop of hair, its was chopped off a few hours later

Soccer


Soccer part two.... I have to remember when I put Maddy in soccer at the ripe ole age of 3, just weeks after Miss. Kennedy was born. Maddy, well.... enjoyed yelling through the cones, that was about it. So two years later we gave it a try again. She was much more focused this time, but probably not going to be a professional soccer player. She had a couple really good players on her team, which was great for winning but not so great in her love for the game. She just didn't understand why she ran so hard after the ball but somebody else always got to it first... great life lesson.
So while i don't see a soccer career in her future, she at least had fun most of the time. The first game daddy was able to attend she scored a goal, the smile on her face made it all worth it!

Kennedy turns 2!



Alright, so Im a little late. We had a small birthday party for her at the house, but she had a great time! She is talking so well now, its funny I ever worried. She has started potty training, but I can say now its going to be much more of a challenge then Maddy was. She will go every time I (III) put her on the toilet but she hasn't started telling me when she has to go. She has her 2 year check up tomorrow, we shall see what her weight and height is at (33 inches (50th), 28 pounds(70th).
