swim lessons

Lexi has been in private swim lessons at Lifetime for 6 weeks. Lexi LOVES her teacher at Lifetime, but we just weren't seeing much progress. Jason and I had been researching other programs when my friend, Michelle told me about the class Addie is taking. Jason and I watched a video of Addie swimming and we were sold. The class is only 10 minutes a day/4 times a week. Yesterday was Lexi's first day. At first, she didn't know what to think and when she figured it out, she screamed and cried for me to get her out of the pool. Today before swim class Lexi came up with every excuse why she couldn't go...tummy ache, headache, boo boo on her foot, you name it, she said it. BUT, today at swim class Lexi did great! No tears, no screaming, all determination! I am so incredibly proud of her. I had happy tears in my eyes for most of her lesson. Thank you, Michelle for telling me about this program. Lexi is going to be a little mermaid just like Addie soon!! Since the girls did so well today we took them for ice cream after their lessons (Addie's lesson is right after Lexi's. We get to be each other's cheerleaders!).

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...
