Tatum Paige

Who would of thought that another little girl would brighten our lives as much as Tatum Paige. She is a sweetheart who always has a smile to share. Some mornings when I wish I could just sleep in and stay in bed, I just have to go to Tatum's bed side and there is my precious baby with those big dark eyes and the biggest grin that melts my heart every time I look at her. Tatum has the most special spirit. Every day she patiently deals with her two older sisters as they use her as their little toy doll. I can't express how thankful I am that she has come into our home. She fills our lives everyday with so much happiness and love.

Soccer

We entered Kennadee into her first activity, Soccer! It was a lot of fun to go watch these young kids try to learn how to play the game. Kennadee was always willing and a great sport. There were times were she was dancing around on the field during being the goalie. It practically gave her Dad a heart attack, but as the games went by Kennadee began catching on and going after the ball. On her last game she made two goals and is psyched to play soccer next year.

My Babies First Day Of School

Kennadee Started Kindergarten

Kennadee started kindergarten this year and she was so excited to go to her new school. It was August 30, 2009 when her dad and I took her to McKinley elementary. I was so worried about her having early morning kindergarten, with her having to wake up around 7:20 a.m. to get to school on time. I just knew the battle I had with her every Sunday morning with church and trying to wake this child up! However, the first day of sch00l came and she was psyched. She jumped out of bed in a hurry and was ready to go to school in no time. She is a bright, independent child who is fearless and excited about these new adventures and different stages of life. She was so brave that she hardly looked back to see where her parents were at. I think she is going to be a fun little social butterfly with all her friends and a great little student.

Watch Out She is a Big Girl Now!

Hannah started preschool September 10, 2009. She was ready to jump out of the van and walk into the school without mom. She said, "Goodbye Mom" and had the door open before I knew it. I had to explain to her that I was going to walk her in to her new school and take some pictures at least. I am so sad to see how my baby girls are growing up so fast and they don't hesitate at starting new things without out even looking back. Hannah just wants to be doing the same things that her sister Kennadee is doing and she it going to prove to me that she is big enough. I was concerned at her short attention span when it comes to learning. I had been working with her during the summer to teach her, her ABC's. I would say, "Hannah lets work on the ABC's," and she responded back with, "I know it mom, ABC, ABC." I still have not convinced her that their are more letters than ABC in the alphabet. She did great on her first day of school and was so excited at what she had learned.
