Sleeping Beauties.

I remember my first sleepover. It was a birthday party sleepover and there were so many kids there, I don't even remember whose party it was.
Sydney and Haylie are asking for more and more sleepovers, so for now we are starting out small. One at a time.
So, in my old age, I have come to realize ( thanks to my husband telling me) that I am a party pooper! Is it a crime to try and get the girls to go to bed at 9:30? I didn't think so, but I think I was fighting a loosing battle. These 3 sleeping beauties were up until 12:30 am, talking and giggling. Then they were up at 6:30 am with the rising sun.
I am glad that the girls were willing to let me sleep in......at least another 1/2 an hour before Tui woke up. I think we will have another sleepover in a couple of months when I have finally caught up on my sleep.



Batter Up!


I actually got my kids signed up on time this year for tee-ball and softball. Haylie has been so excited to play! Every spare minute I have she is asking to go outside and practice. So what happens the first night?......She cries hystarically and won't let go of my leg! I guess I have just volunteered to be an assistant coach! By the end of the night she finally got brave enough to let go of me and hit the ball. She will love it once she gets used to the routine......I hope!

Gradulation!?





So what is Gradulation you ask? It is when you " graduate" from Mom school.....according to Haylie. This year was her second year in mom school because she misses the cut off date for pe-k by 2 weeks. Next fall she will be in real pre-k. She is so excited to go to a big school like her sister. Haylie had lots of fun this year with her mom school friends and will miss them next year. Here are some pictures of our " gradulation" party at the park. I tried to get a group picture of all of the mom school kids, but there was too much to do....no sitting still!






Welcome Spring!



I am so excited to have a new camera! I have been cameraless since Christmas. Now that I have a new one I can actually catch up on my blogging.



Here in Iowa we have had very inconsistant weather! One day it is 70 dergees, and the next it is rainy and 45 degrees. So when it is nice out we take advantage of it. Here is our first playdate at a park this year.
