Labor Day weekend!!

It was a wet and windy weekend here!! We did nothing Friday evening or Sat just played and chilled. Sunday we did get out and get Lilly's bday decorations and made a stop by the bookstore. Then we headed to visit with Mom and Dad for a bit. Lilly started feeling bad and running a fever. It has been low and not constant, but her throat is pretty red and swollen. We decided we are keeping her home tomorrow to go see the dr. I just can't get her up and send her if I know she isn't 100%. I am afraid it is strep....so fingerscrossed it's not!



Lilly trying to master Bop It Extreme!!

A little Lite-Brite fun!!

Trying really hard.....getting a little frustrated....

Candyland...their new favorite. Although Lilly does not like to lose!! She wants the Ice Cream cone everytime!

This is what they did while I was on the phone with Jess. I knew they were up to trouble, but honestly they were playing good so I took my chances. Apparently they were going on a trip to Indiana and needed to take everything they own!! I can't get over the expression on Lance's face.....he seriously looks like he is about 16 and saying "whatever mom"

Hope you had a good holiday weekend!!

Lilly's change of clothes

You may remember when Lilly got kool-aid spilled on her the 2nd day of school and didn't change. Well, mom and both reminded her and told her if something like that happened again to ask to change.

Fast forward to yesterday when I go to pick her up. As she is walking out I notice she isn't in the clothes I sent her in. When she gets in I asked what happened. To which she replies nothing why? I said your wearing your extra clothes. She said, "My water spilled and I was wet so I asked to change, Mammaw told me I could do that". I explained that was fine and I was happy she rememberd she could do that.

So we get home and I get her "wet" clothes out of her bag. She brought the entire bag of extra clothes home (including the clean underwear & socks). I look and see her shorts were in fact wet (probably not so much she couldn't have worn them, but no big deal) However, her shirt is perfectly dry. When I said, "Lilly your shirt is dry, you only need to change what's wet". She replied, "but mom.....they would have both been blue!" (She had worn a navy polo yesterday and her extra skirt was navy). I cracked up and said, "Good point". I mean what could I say....a girl has to look good!!

Lilly's 2nd week of school

Lilly actually had a really good week. She still had moments where she started to cry or got a little nervous, but overall she did great. On Friday when she came out she told me she didn't even start to cry!! I think she is finally adjusting. I told her it was just a matter of learning the routine and getting comfortable with it.

Academically we couldn't be prouder of her. One day in her folder her teacher wrote, "One of the only ones that followed the directions". Then yesterday on her paper where she had to write her name several times it said, "WOW". Plus, in her folder yesterday her teacher wrote, "I frequently use her work as an example of how to follow directions"

We are so proud of her and I hope she continues to set a good example for other students. I really think that as she adjusts she is going to thrive so much. She has such a thirst for knowledge and is like a little sponge. She already learned the life cycle of a frog!!

We are at the library as I type this, but I had to include a photo because on top of being smart and amazing....she's BEAUTIFUL too!!
