Everything Under the Sun!

Hannah in her Daisy Smock!

Leia being a Big Girl!

My new bedding!


Gabby at her soccer game!



Soccer has been great. Hannah is actually kicking the ball and not too shy to take the ball to the goal. The coaches are incredible! Gabrielle likes her coach very much. She enjoys soccer more than I anticipated. The only fact I don't like is that there is only her and another girl and four boys and they seem to be better at sports more naturally. Gabrielle didn't like that they kept taking the ball from her. We seem to be very busy during the week with Soccer. School is ending and Summer coming, I think I look forward to it more than the kids right now. I can't wait to go to the pool. So we are going to Kings Island in a couple of weeks. We had to wait till all the family birthdays we out of the way and a week before Memorial Weekend. Yikes! I hope it's not crazy there yet! Swimming Lessons are on hold because of Soccer practices were on the same day so we are doing that in June, which is great bc school will be out and that gives them something to do.

I would like to announce that we are officially off the state system. We've come a long way. As reluctant as I am to have to pay for everything..lets be honest it's a little difficult. We have never paid this much in insurance and prescriptions and medical bills. We have been budgeting very well and still have savings. I am very proud of the family!

Gabrielle is joined Hannah's troop in Girl Scouts. And I am the Co-leader. Yippeee! I'm excited. They will be brownies May 9th. I think they changed the rules a little bit, like the grades or something so we have the option to be brownies for a extra year. So instead of just 2 they will be brownies for 3 years.
I finally finished decorating my bedroom. It's taken three years to do. Im so picky with everything. Even though we didnt get new furniture bc of lack of space. But we did get a new tv and blu-ray dvd player.

I love being a mom! It's the Best and hardest job ever!

Bored this afternoon

We wanted to go somewhere for Spring Break but it's really cold so we set a date for Kings Island in May a week before school ends. Hopefully it will be nice but something like this can always be reschedule. Gabrielle will be having an evaluation with the ENT specialist to see weather or not to go forth with her tonsillectomy tomorrow. I am almost certain that they will do it and it will be scheduled sometime in June bc they are so busy. Soccer and Swimming starts the same week. Gabrielle is praticing holding her breath under water.

I got the girls pictures taken at Sears for the first time and the first time with Easter dresses on! I realized I had none of them looking so pretty in dresses. Hannah poses so well. She watches ANTM, America's Next Top Model for those who dont know what ANTM means. :)

The girls are growing everyday and their attitudes are coming through. Hannah and Gabby are two years apart and now that Gabby is getting school aged the gap is almost non existent wish means Hannah is struggling with her role in the house. I try to make it fair; that they take turns doing stuff like help cooking or the dishwasher, or whatever it is.
