Beginning of 3rd grade year!!

You are in third grade and we can't believe it! You have had to adjust to "serious" work and earning "real" grades this year, but other than occasionally rushing (and hating criticism) you are doing quite well and learning and growing. You scored extremely high in your testing this year (99th percentile) so we are excited to see all that you will learn this year! 


You wanted to take a break from TaeKwondo and try baseball this year, but didn't tell us in time to sign up for most leagues. A local church had a really casual intro league, so we tried that and you really liked it and did well. We will try to do a "more serious" league this spring. 


We've been having fun getting into the Fall spirit (although the picture below doesn't look like it since you were upset that you messed up your pumpkin painting). This weekend was Fall break and we've stayed home, played games, done crafts and spent quality time as a family. We will cherish the memories made and the comfort and love shared and hope you will remember that too!

Summer 2024

You finished 1st grade strong and love math and science and reading. This summer you’ve read the Dragon Master’s series and all things Titanic. We’ve had fun going to the library while sissy plays tennis. You tried tennis a couple of times, but you didn’t want to continue. You had fun at basketball camp and your taekwondo continues i n the summer. You are currently a yellow belt after your last test! The summer is winding down and you will be a 2nd grader soon. It’s hard to believe!

Spring update

  It is already springtime and it’s so hard to believe! You have done really well as a kindergartner! You are reading well above grade level and are so curious and interested in everything! You have been well-behaved for the most part, but have had just a couple of reminders from your teachers to have self-control during down time. We are so proud of you overall! You just had your Kindergarten musical and you had a speaking part that you rocked! We also just moved into our new house in Chapin and are loving it! After only being in the house for a week, we took a spring break trip to see Grandmommy and Grandaddy and had a great time riding bikes, swimming, and sightseeing around Central Florida. So much to be thankful for and so much fun stuff happening! Now, bring on summer!!!

3rd birthday!!!

 How in the world are you 3 already? You keep us on our toes with your feisty nature for sure, but we love you so and are so proud of how far you've come from a 4 pound preemie to a 3 year old weighing 34 pounds and in the 74th percentile for weight and 76th for height! You are obsessed with our phones and watching videos, playing with your trucks and digger, running around and playing cops and robbers and acting out David and Goliath 800 times a day with your guitar as your sword and paci-roar as your sling shot. You talk loud all the time and are always on the move. Listening is not your favorite thing and you spend quite some time in time out or getting spankings right now, but you'll get there. You are sweet and caring and give hugs and kisses at random. Sleeping is not your favorite thing but you're starting to at least go to bed easier, but still wake up multiple times a night just to be covered up, go potty, or have us lie by you for a few minutes. It's a good th...
