J-man's 6th Bday

Star War's
Jedi Training

J-man's 6th bday was a blast. He of course wanted a Star War's party. We did Jedi Training and Jedi Master Jon led the young jedi's!

Lil' Princess Leia was a hit! Isn't she cute?

The party ended with the Jedi's using their skills to defeat Darth Vader!

These were j's first words as he got into my car at the end of his first day.

I knew he would, but didn't know to what extent. He seriously can't wait to read and be a big kid. He actually is getting frustrated that he doesn't know how to read yet. I guess I should have been working on it with him. Oh Well!

I am really liking his school. And he even got the teacher I was hoping he would get.

Mom is doing good too. I was a little weepy on my drive home, but as the day went one I realized this is a new phase for me too! Who knows what the Lord has. I still have 2 at home, but it's amazing what taking 1 of the 3 out of the situation does to the sanity. Really, it doesn't matter which one. If there are 3 of them, they feed off of each other and it's a little more chaotic.

We'll see how his excitement does as the weeks go on. He's been real tired at the end of the day, but I know he'll adjust.

Big News!!!!

So, our eldest son graduated Pre-k. I can't believe I will have a kindergartner in the fall. We have decided to send him to a half day school, 5 days a week. I'm excited for him and I think he will love it. Last week I heard him tell M that he can't wait to learn how to read so he can read to her.

Our middle child, who is posing in the picture above, is now officially POTTY TRAINED!!!! Once again, I was reminded that they do things in their time. For her, it took me talking to her about not being able to do Day Camp at our church if she's not going on the potty. She's such a processor/thinker. I love it. She's like her dad in that way.

Now our youngest. All I can say is that she cracks me up. She is full of personality. M was her age when we had O. So, I feel like I kind of missed out on enjoying how fun she was at this age. I'm really trying to stop and take it all in this time around. In this picture above I had turned my back for 1 second (literally) and she climbed right in the tub. Her other favorite place is the dryer....

I was thinking this morning that I understand how you can love all your kids the same. Before I became a mom I always wondered how that would work. But, they each have a special place in my heart and have different things about their personalities that I love (and of course things that DRIVE ME CRAZY!!!).

She's 3 or 5!

If you ask M how old she is, she will put up 2 or 3 fingers and say 5. We had her party last week and she wanted, of course, a princess party. I will have to admit that I loved it. It was fun to plan and fun to see the girls all dressed up. I love my girlie girl! I wasn't much of a girlie girl growing up...more of a tom-boy. When ballet, tap, or gymnastics wasn't my thing, my mom says she finally gave in and let my dad put me in soccer. I think it's safe to say that I am more girl-i-fied now. I think my daughter has helped that! Ha! She wears skirts way more than me.

Her party was fun. I will let the pictures speak for themselves. Princess Amelia showed up at the party to read the girls and story and do a craft with them. PRICELESS!
