mommy/daughter day

I told Lexi last night today was going to be a mommy/daughter day.  Jason left for work & the NHL draft this morning.  We had a haircut appointment for Lexi at 11:00 AM and I promised to take her swimming and for ice cream after (she REALLY did not want to get a haircut).  We stayed at the pool for 1.5 hours, ate lunch there, ran a few errands, got her an ice cream cone and then had to come home to meet the plumber (we had a hot water heater leak).  The plumber was only here for about 30 minutes.  Lexi and I then fed the baby birds that have a nest in some low bushes by our driveway and made dinner for ourselves before bath time.  During Lexi's bath she said, "Mom, you said it was going to be a mommy/daughter day today."  I replied, "It was."  Lexi said, "No, it was a mommy/daughter/plumber day!" Haha!  Here are some "after" photos of Lexi's hair.  The curls at the end were pretty much gone.  I was nervous to cut them off in case they magically came back, but it looks so much healthier now!

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...
