What Lilee has been up to...

Well, we are still loving school at this point, which is good...the getting up in the morning is getting a little tougher, she is wanting to stay up & play in her bed instead of going to sleep!! Here is what she is thinking about 2nd grade...

And she has started her extra curricular activities....no more soccer for her...this is what she chose this year... She is in LOVE with gymnastics...she is doing really well & that is probably the only picture I will have of her actually because they don't allow photography in the gym!!!

Tennis is all new, but she loved her first lesson, she actually made contact with the ball & was thrilled the rest of the evening! The only drawback in her words is "I get too hot on the court", but eventually it will cool off a little & she will be fine!!!

That is what is going on in this house at the moment....Samuel is doing soccer this year & he starts next week!! Games start the weekend after Labor Day! So life is busy, but we are enjoying it!

What Samuel thinks.....

After two weeks of Kindergarten this is what my little man thinks...

First day of school!

Well, the day came & went & we have started school!!! Both Lilee & Samuel were excited to start & woke up nice & early this morning with no problems!! I was planning to walk Samuel into school the first day because he has no clue where to go, Lilee on the other hand wanted no help & she wanted to walk in herself, thank you very much. Well, as we are walking into school with school supplies in hand & with the thousands (it seemed) of people Lilee takes one look around and pretty much DEMANDS that I walk her in too!! So, we all walk Samuel to his room, get him settled & he looks up at me and asks "are you coming back to get me?" Awwww.....well, I almost lost it!!! My big boy sitting at his own desk, looking so old!!! After assuring him I would be back, we left and went to Lilee's room. Once she was in there she hung up her backpack like a pro & found her desk & she was settled and ready for me to leave. I think she was just needing a little Mama & I was happy to give it to her!!

Time for a surprise after school snack.....cupcakes!!!
