Kindergarten Musical

Last night we went to watch Abigayle and all the other Kindergartners perform the musical Bugz. She was in the choir and got to wear antenna's. I remember watching the Kindergarten performance last year at Kindergarten Roundup and crying knowing that Abi would soon be doing the same thing. Congrats sweet girl, you and all your friends did a great job.

Top Cookie SalesGirl

Today was cookie dough pick up day. (Our first fundraiser, we were so excited) I knew we had sold a lot, but little did I know how much we, ah hem, Abigayle had sold. We loaded up when Eric got home from work and went up to Abi's school. What a reception we got, when we walked in. Come to find out, Abigayle was the top salesGirl for the WHOLE school. Wow! And for all her, ah hem, our hard work, we got to bring home this lovely dog whom we have named Woofie. Congratulations Abigayle, ah hem, Mommy and Daddy on all your hard work.

Easter Bunny

Eric and I took the kids for their annual picture with the Easter Bunny this morning. I thought for sure, I was going to get a good picture. As we were waiting in line, Jax was so excited, yelling Hi Easter Bunny and in an all around great mood. However, his mood soon changed when he realized I was telling the truth about sitting on his lap. Yeah, he wasn't having it. He barely agreed to sit besides his sister, but he did none the less. On the other hand, Abi crawled up and gave him a big hug. That's my girl!

Go Jax Go

So, while Abi and her friend Peyton were riding scooters, Jax decided to commandeer Abi's bike. In no time at all, he was pedaling down the street and he only took one 'small' spill. OK, I know, the bike is pink and purple. Looks like we will be making a trip to Toys R Us soon. I mean, really, how many girl toys can one boy ride. Presently, he enjoys Abi's pink jeep, her Princess scooter and now her Princess bike. Oy.

Happy Anniversary Abigayle

Not flesh of my flesh, nor bone of my bone,

but still miraculously my own.

Never forget for a single minute,

you didn't grow under my heart but in it.

5 years ago today, a beautiful baby girl of 9 months old was placed in my arms. Happy Gotcha Day to our sweet Abigayle and her China sisters.
