Last Day of Preschool

Madison's last day of preschool was the end of May. We've done a co-op preschool for the last three years. I was nervous at first, but it was great. She loved it. She is so excited for kindergarten. Today we were working on a packet she received from school and she was talking about how she can't wait for kindergarten and how fun it was going to be. Are there going to be crafts? I love crafts. I'm an expert artist...




This year there was actually more girls than boys. Last year she was the only girl.

Soccer Team Pictures

So I'm back tracking a little. Here are Madison's pictures from Soccer. There are alot of pictures, but this is my family journal and I want them all, so there you have it. This is Claire on our way to the last soccer game in her new sun glasses she got from my baby shower. Our little soccer star! She ended the year with ten goals! Both grandparents sent her a dollar for each goal. She asked if they would done that again in the fall. I told her she'd have to talk to them. She paid two dollars in tithing, one dollar in her piggy bank and took the other 17 to Target and bought herself a barbie and a package of rolos. It was a very hard decision for her. She really wanted that barbie but it was going to take all the money, but she finally decided that was what she wanted.




















































The whole team and the coaches, who coached through a winning season!






























































Doing the "razor claw"!!!
























We're excited for fall when both girls will do soccer!

Coming Home

Evelyn and I came home from the hospital on Sunday June 5th. Our first family photo!
















The girls had helped me pick out a special outfit for Evelyn to wear home from the hospital. When Madison got to the hospital she was so excited to see her in it.

























It's been a crazy last 1 1/2 weeks. We are moved into our new place (not fully unpacked or organized). Our condo is all ready for our tenant to move in and it looks great. Evelyn went to the doctor this week and everything looked good. She weighed in at 9 lbs. So she is gaining wait again. She is 70-90% on height and weight but only 25% on head (she must have her Dad's little head). Her big sisters arrive home tonight. They are dying to see her and have had a fabulous time in NM with Grandma, Papa, Ali and Ryder. I hope Evelyn's ready for them. It's been nice for me to have some one-on-one time with Evelyn. We have been so spoiled by friends. I don't know if'll remember how to cook! We are truly blessed.
