First Grade School Pictures

September 2011

age 6

School is going very well for these two.

They both received great report cards

and Molly got perfect

attendance for the first quarter.

I am really enjoying going to help

with AR tests in their

classroom three times a week.

They love their teachers too.

We are so very proud of them both!!

Welcome to First Grade!!

August 18, 2011

being silly before school!

All decked out in new everything!!
Thanks Mamaw & Papaw!!

Got up pretty easy this morning.

Ate cereal.

And anxious to get dressed.

They were a little worried about where to go once at school.

So, I walked them into school and waited with them

for instructions from the principal.

Here we go.....
Last year the kids' room was the closest to the front door.

I kid you not, this year it is the farthest!!

Lindy is ready to start her day!

Molly loves her desk!

Their first day went very well.

It was learn the rules day.

They both really like their teacher, Mrs. Mobley.

Time to sit back and listen to the stories!! :)

New Purse

Check out Lindy's new purse.

Molly made it.
(it only took a whole roll of tape)

Tent "Camping"

SO...

the girls asked me to help them

make a tent in their room.

This is the result.

A sheet draped over some furniture.

They loved it.

(I love to hear happy squeals)

They worked over an hour

making it home.

I can't believe they are actually sleeping in it!!

New Hair & No Teeth

New hair cuts for the girls.

Or should I say... styles!!

Lindy lost her first big tooth.

She sound so cute.


I think I need a new style too.


Goofing off.....









Summer is winding down. School starts in ten days!!

Sniff sniff........

Our Summer So Far

New pool.

Lots of swimming.

and stunts!

(ear infections have stalled the swimming this week)

Cheer leading clinic

a vacation

(more on that later)

First time sleeping in bunk beds

lots of dress up play
and concerts

our 19th wedding anniversary party

(complete with paper veil, hat and bow tie and wedding rings)

Had a big tree cut down in our yard

Molly had her first ER visit.

She crashed into another kid and her glasses cut her cheek.

They cleaned it and glued it up.

Her glasses were not harmed!

So that's it so far.

But summer isn't over yet.

Molly's First Tooth Fairy Visit

When Molly had her last cleaning at the dentist they told us she would most likely NOT loose her bottom teeth. The permanent ones were growing in behind the baby teeth. She would probably have to have them pulled at some point.

Sure enough them came in just as the doc said.

Double teeth. She started complaining about them. So we had to tell her what the doctor said. But she was ready to call and have them pulled. I told her we would after vacation.

BUT....



Look what happened!!!

She worked and worked on that tooth until it came out on it's own!

Yeah!!


She was so proud too.



The next morning I asked her what she got...



"Not much, just a dollar. Probably because it was a little tooth"



Hummmm......

Spring School Pictures

Spring is trying to make it's way here.

We are all so ready for some nice weather.

The girls start soccer this weekend and they are excited about that.

We had one warm day last week and Molly wanted to go buy a pool tat day. They are looking forward to the pool we plan to get. I just hope I can learn to keep the water clean.

I have uploaded spring school pictures with this post.

They turned out really good.

Molly looks to be 10 years old!!

But she is only 6. Oh, how I'd love for them to stay this age for a long time.

Lindy is also growing so fast. She is nearly wearing the same size as her sister now. But is still an inch or so shorter. They got to pick out their favorite pose for these pictures. The photographer took their picture together too. They love each other so much. It's hard to believe that their kindergarten year is winding down. Time is just whizzing by. Even faster now that I am working 4+ hours everyday. I have now been at my new job Ice Cream Eddies for about 2 months and I love it. I like my hours, my bosses and those I work with. All is good. Well, I don't much care when there is a huge line waiting for food, but still I like it. And the food & ice cream I get to sample ain't bad either! I smile every time I am out somewhere with the girls and we have ice cream. Molly & Lindy like it but... "it ain't as good as yours momma"

Fashon Show

Molly & Lindy needed new dresses for our nieces' wedding coming up in May. So I decided to let them pick out sometihing from the catalog at The Attic. They will also wear them for Easter. They both choose hot pink. Of course we had to then get new shoes!!

Rita (owner of The Attic) asked the girls to

wear their dresses in a childrens fashon show. It was to benifit the Hope Pregnacy Center.

The girls did a great job and were so stinkin cute!! My friend, Shea french braided their hair and we even had to get their nails painted at the salon!! Well, they asked an what's a mommy to do?

Basketball Baby!!

Disney On Ice

A girl's day out with Mamaw.

Princess & the Frog

Our front row seats were great.

I don't know who liked it more. The little girls or the big ones.

It was awesome.

Afterward we went out to eat and did some

shopping before we headed home.

It was a really fun day!
