Dance!

This morning we signed Lexi up for her first dance class!  She will take ballet and tap on Tuesdays beginning this August.  This afternoon we bought tap shoes, tights, and a leotard.  On another note, tomorrow morning we will have to go back to the dance store to see if we left little puppy dog (a.k.a. "Five") at the store.  Tonight, when I put Lexi to bed she asked where her little puppy dog is...he could not be found.  He must be at the dance store.  First thing in the morning we will go see if he is there.  Lexi loves Five so much.  He is a tiny beanie baby and she sleeps with him and carries him everywhere.  When we couldn't find Five tonight, she picked up a Goofy figurine and said, "I'll sleep with Goofy.  He's a dog."  I am just heartbroken she doesn't have Five.  In fact, I put Lexi to bed 42 minutes ago and I am still kicking myself for not checking to see if she had Five before we left the store.  Lexi seems to be adjusting much better than me!  I checked online to see if we could purchase another Five.  I found one that is new and (gasp) he is $30!  I told Jason about it and he said he was heartbroken too and that we should just buy her a new one because he knows she loves him so much!  I will wait until I go by the store tomorrow to see if I can find him...hopefully he's not too lonely without his little sidekick.

kindergarten boxcar parade

Well, everyone was healthy until Lexi got the flu and I got pneumonia.  Needless to say, it's been a rough week...BUT, we are better again and for the most part back to normal.  Jason, Lexi and I all worked together on this and we think it turned out great!  All the boxcars were unique and wonderful!  The parade was wonderful...it should have been televised!!

daddy/daughter dance

I have some catching up to do on the blog, but I wanted to write tonight while my feelings and emotions are raw... About a month ago we received an email about the daddy/daughter dance tonight.  Jason attached the flyer and forwarded it to me saying, "I have to work."  I frowned and moved on.  I didn't think much about it until the other day.  I had an "a-ha" moment and asked Jason if we could ask his dad so Lexi wouldn't miss out on the ball.  Jason called Kevin the next day and I received a text from Jason right after saying, "My dad would be happy to take Lexi."  I was delighted and Lexi was on cloud 9 when I told her Paw Paw wanted to take her to the ball (side note...we didn't tell Lexi about the ball because we didn't think she was going to be able to attend since Jason was out of town). The next day Jason left work early and met us at the mall for a little ball dress shopping.  Lexi danced around the dressing room in about 8 diff...
