First Day of School!!

I cannot believe my baby is 5 and starting Kindergarten. I have been dreading this day since I had her. She is so sweet and my little companion all day, and she will be greatly missed. Brooklyn on the other hand could not have been more excited! In fact, we were asking the teacher a few questions and she looked up and said, "Will you guys just get out of this place already!" I think she is outgrowing us and she is only five. I did really well and didn't cry til about 5 minutes after I dropped her off and I was heading to the grocery store without her. I really miss her constant chatter all day and her desire to just hang out with me no matter what I was doing. I love you Brooklyn and I am so proud of you!!!!

She loved her first day in Mrs. Barrios class and can't wait for more.


Posing for the camera in her "fancy" outfit. She thought for sure her teacher would tell her how fancy she looked. I told her she looked just right, and all the kids would be wearing new clothes so if the teacher didn't say anything to know that she looked beautiful.

Lexie wanted to stay too!

Where to begin???

It has clearly been awhile, so I am going to attempt to go back and blog the past at least 6 months. Life has been crazy to say the least, but it never seems to slow down. Check back and hopefully I will have updates for you more periodically. :)

Chinese New Year

Dear China,

To celebrate the second day of Chinese New Year we would like to get Chinese chicken.

Love,
Brooklyn

(This letter is in lieu of the real thing. She would like China to know that this will be a new tradition. She wanted the first day, but we already had dinner plans. The third day was too late though.)

"I Tied"

Brooklyn and my conversation in the car today.

Brooklyn: I call that a tie.

Me: What do you call a tie?

Brooklyn: Today because half of the day I was a bad listener and half of the day I was a good listener. This whole time we have been shopping I have been a good listener and this morning I wasn't.

Me: I guess you're right then you did tie.

She is so funny sometimes. We definitely have a clever girl. I love you Brooklyn and you did more than tie today, you won!
