First Day's

Well this past Thursday August 16th, 2012 we started a new school year. My daughter Kenzi is now in kindergarten. She was excited, nervous, and a little shy that first day of school, but she loves it. Everyday she gets off the bus and I ask her questions and she loves to talk about it. She looks so cute wearing that backpack of hers!


Skyler started 8th grade this year. He wasn't excited at all about going back to school, but once it started he enjoyed it. Now I am hoping that he starts to get involved and socializes a little more with those students at school.

Jarred and I both had a good first day of school. I have only 6 students this year in my classroom and a full schedule for us each day. Jarred has a lot of good classes this year and he seems to be excited about this new school year. Devin and Landon went back to preschool also. Devin was super excited about going back and has been a great kid so far. We did end up starting ADHD medicine and it seems to be helping him a lot. Landon, however, has been a hand full. He is 3 and I can't tell if it is his normal 3 year old behavior or  if it is because he is being mean. He has temper tantrums a lot and just seems to be angry sometimes. However, he can be the cutest kid. So far our year back has been full of excitement and we have had full schedules each day.

As school really gets started I guess we will know more about how the year is going to go, but I think that it is going to be great.

Crazy Week

Monday my sister went into labor and Jayisha was born at 6:48pm weighing 7lbs 8ounces and was 18.5 inches long.  Jayisha is such a cute baby. She was considered to be premature and has immature lungs so she is in NICU getting help with her lungs.


Today, Thursday, was a great day. Yesterday we were called about finalizing the adoption of our two other kids that moved in. So today at 2:45pm we went to Indianapolis and had our adoption hearing for Skyler and Kenzi. They are now our kids and have been welcomed into the family. It was a fantastic day!



Tomorrow I will be registering my daughter for kindergarten. It will be a new experience and will be fantastic once she starts. Hopefully she loves it!
