Look who got glasses....

Well....Lilee failed her eye exam for the third grade...so we went to the eye doctor & she has a VERY bad astigmatism...not sure how she has passed all the other eye exams...but here we are!! She picked out two pairs & after waiting for TWO WEEKS!!! we finally have them and she loves them...now decisions on which pair to wear...it's like another accessory (which Lilee LOVES)!!

Tennis

Well school is going just swimmingly.....third grade is a HUGE adjustment for Lilee, we are getting by, but hopefully it starts to flow in the coming weeks. Samuel is rocking kindergarten & he is being the big helper this year & showing the kids how to behave & what to do & not do....Tennis has started and we are moving right along...Lilee just picked up from last year & is loving it & Samuel is thrilled they have included kindergarten this year! They both love it....not the heat...just the game!!!

Twas the night before school

This year I found a poem on a website about the night before school and it was so cute I decided to read it to my kids, it has a part about magic confetti and you put it under your pillow and it helps you sleep the night before school since you are so excited about it starting...;so here are the kids with their confetti....

First day of school....

First day a success!!! After school treat!!!

Surprise!!!

I came home today and look what I saw......

He hasn't had ANY loose teeth at all & Chuck said today during lunch his front tooth just fell out!!! I'm SHOCKED!!! I just felt his teeth the other day and we were talking about how he hasn't even lost one tooth and he is 6!!! Well here you go buddy...your first lost tooth!!

Jump Rope Camp

Lilee attended jump rope camp this week & loved it!! She wasn't sure if any of her friends were doing it and she did it anyway!! I'm so proud that she took that leap that she might just be the only one there...that is huge for my shy little girl!!! She learned different ways of jumping and it turned out 2 of her friends ending up being in the camp as well...here she is showing off just a few of her new skills!!

Yep...it is that time of year...

Well, can you believe it??? School is right around the corner...we have a 3rd grader & a kindergardener!! We went school shopping the other day & wow...does Lilee need supplies!!! Samuel we knew what to expect because of last year, but Lilee's list was LONG!! Here they are with their supplies...

Proud Momma

I had a proud Momma moment on Saturday....Samuel had to get new shoes for school since his foot has grown a ton!! His new shoes have ties, which he has no idea how to tie shoes, since his old ones were velcro....so we get home from the shoe store & I go about my business, then I hear Lilee say "Samuel, I'll teach you how to tie"...then they spent the next 1/2 hour teaching & learning...he still needs some work, but he did it!!!
