it doesn't look like me

Lexi prefers to wear her jumper uniform over her uniform skirt.  Today we were running a few minutes late so I grabbed the skirt and long sleeve polo POP shirt.  She got dressed and then came in our room, looked in the mirror, teared up and said, "It doesn't look like me."  She was so upset with what she had to wear, but once we put her hair in a side ponytail and purple flower headband she had a change of heart and was able to handle her new look.  :)

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!!

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...
