1st Day of Kindergarten

She certainly enjoyed playing at the playground before class.


Holly's teacher, Ms. Amy, is great! She has lots of great things for the kids and encourages them to do their best. Holly received a good behavior ticket and was able to go play in any of the play areas of her classroom. She went into the baking room and the painting room. She thoroughly enjoyed school. Her mom and dad worried all day long and her mom certainly missed having her home. Upon picking her up from school though, I was relieved to see how much she enjoyed school. We look forward to many more days and we will be doing a blog about her first year of school.

Half way there!

Way to go Holly, you made it to Lesson 50! Keep it up and you'll be finished by the time you start Kindergarten. We are so proud of you!

So Holly loves ballet. We've told her that she will get to start going after she shows us she's doing well in school. So probably January is when she'll start. We have a friend who makes custom tutus and we got ones made for the girls to wear. We can't wait to do their portraits in them!

"I Can See Clearly Now..."

So a few months ago Holly started showing some signs that she was having a hard time seeing things. She could see large objects but when it came to reading on a page, she told me she couldn't see. So we got her to the eye doctor and come to find out, far away and up close she sees blurred images. She now rocks some awesome glasses to correct her vision! She goes back in a couple weeks to make sure the prescription doesn't need to change. Way to go Holly on letting us know you couldn't see very well!

Guess we need to plan some major trips back to Disneyland/Disneyworld to see what she missed!

Rylie's First Month

Rylie had jaundice for two weeks and had to be under the bili-lights. It was a very trying time for our family and we are so happy for the prayers and thoughts that surrounded us. No doubt it helped. She is healthy now and doing really well. We look forward to the many more special moments we have with her. She is such a joy.
