"Daddy, I love you! Thank you for my new swing set"

Oh my gosh, Kenzie almost peed her pants when daddy and Matt brought the swing set over the fence to the house. I will explain the story later. She had so much fun with it!
"Sissy, are you sure this is safe? I am not so sure about it!" Maddie didn't really know what to think of the slide. She hated the glider. She just isn't big enough yet to know what to do on a slide. We will be getting an infant swing to put on it for her. Then maybe she will start to like it.
"Mommy, it has a slide too"
Sittin pretty! I loved this pose. She is so into taking pics today!
Look at her! She loved it! She couldn't wait to get on the glider, swing, slide. She wanted to do it all!
Wow, Daddy pushes me. Kenzie's teacher doesn't push the kids on the swing. If they can't do it themselves, they get no help so she was shocked when Daddy helped her.
Now for the story about the swingset. I have been pricing them for a while and my neighbor came over and said that his neighbor to the rear would sell me the swing set for a mere $40. That is less than 1/2 of the lowest price I had found. I jumped on the offer and told Ryan to stop by the ATM on the way home. So there is the story. Now for the significance of getting the swingset. I decided that instead of buying something the girls could play with inside, I wanted to get an outdoor toy for Madison for her birthday. I also got Kenzie's report card today which was great. So the toy was for a birthday and a reward for a good report card. Kenzie loved it and was so surprised when Matt told her that the swing would be staying here forever. She thought he was just letting us borrow it, but now that she knows it is hers, she is so darn excited!
I had a good day. I was up until 2am working on the wedding cake that I forgot to get a pic of, but there will be other times when I do a cake that I will get the pic. I got another order for next week today. It is a babyshower cake. So now next week, I have Maddie's birthday cake for the party, and a baby shower cake to do. I think it will be tons of fun!
Kenzie had a good day at school and then came home and helped me finish the invites for Maddie's birthday party. She also helped me buy the decorations for it. We went to the grocery and she was so good that I didn't even mind when she sneaked a hershey bar onto the belt when she knew I wasn't looking.
Maddie got a birthday present today. She loved her outfits Yaya and Pappy!
And that about sums it all up!
Love,
~Dawn~

Kenzie's day at school

Kenzie got off of the bus screaming, "Mom it snowed!" It was so cute. Then when I got into her backpack, I found her daily sheet with this on it... Kenzie had wrote her name (not perfect but she tried) and a note from the teacher above it saying "INDEPENDENT WRITING-- ONLY VERBAL PROMPTS!" I am so excited for her! We are definately getting somewhere. Then under the teacher comments part, I find... "SHE CAME IN TELLING ME IT WAS SNOWING-- SUPER EXCITED!" I too saw this when she got home! Construction Zone Newsletter Week 2 Dear Family, This week Kenzie will learn about solving problems. Using the topic "Build with Me," we will read stories about building things and working together to solve problems. You can help your child learn more by talking with him/her about things she/he is doing at school and the new letters and words that he/she is learning. Here are some ways that you can work with your child at home. Think and Talk: What did y...

And WINTER is here!

I look out the window to see.... A BLANKET OF SNOW! It is covering my driveway, walkway, yard.... and we are expecting more this week! I think it is safe to say that winter has finally decided to come! Don't get me wrong, snow is pretty, but I don't like it because that means I have to drive in dangerous conditions! I would much rather be driving in tropical storm force winds and rain (I have done this! When all the hurricanes were going through Florida a couple of years ago!). Now on to other things... Saturday: I had a really busy day. I was at work and didn't think it would ever end. Admissions and falls and sending people to the hospital... stabalizing others and stuff that goes on in the health care centers all the time. Sunday: Zach forgot to add me back into the schedule, so I got off at 2pm. Rode home with Maxx since he lives in Jeffersonville and Ryan and the girls were going to be at his house anyway. When we got there we watched a little of the game an...
