We have a pretty cool kid

I know I'm a little partial, but I think we have a pretty cool kid.  Friday was Hadley's Kindergarten Program and Awards Day.  Their program was adorable and I have to say, I did tear up.  As the program was going on, I had Hadley and Ellison both grown and graduated from High School.  I am in complete denial that in 4 days, I will have a FIRST GRADER.  Not only will I have a FIRST GRADER, I will have a super cool FIRST GRADER.

During the program, Hadley and another student had parts where they told jokes.  I can't think of a speaking part that would suit her any better.  Then during the Awards Program, she was recognized for winning the Young Georgia Authors Contest for her grade at her school.  She also received the Author's Award and Readers Award for her class.

We sure are proud of our girl.

• Yes, the pictures are horrible, my camera does not take good pictures in a gym.

Lost Footage

I just found this in my draft folder.  I don't remember ever uploading it to blogger.  I remember this like it was yesterday, but boy was my girl rocking the fro and fat rolls, she really was our chunky monkey.  She is probably about 10 months in this video.

Decorator for Hire

There are so many titles this post could be called:  Our little Picasso, We Have Been Vandalized, Baby Extreme Makeover, Pencils & Lead. I'm not surprised, I mean she is seriously in to everything.  I'm not sure when she did it.  We didn't experience this with Hadley and writing on our walls was seriously never anything I even thought about with her, but Ellison, I doubt she will ever surprise us with her wild ways.

I'm really not that impressed with her decorating suggestion.

KISS THIS

Oh this little lady has such a big personality, I don't know if it is the hair or being the second child, but she makes her prescence known every day and we couldn't be more thrilled she is part of our family.

End of cuteness, KISS THIS!!!

SO....

So blessed.  So in love with my beautiful girls.  So enjoy watching these little ladies personalities develop.  So proud to be these little girls mama.

Please excuse the scenery in these.  Isn't that always the way things go.  Everyone is looking at the camera, kinda smiling and there is a stinking trash can in every one.  Free advertising I suppose for Baxter Garbage, if you are local!!!
