| our baby is growing up |

My last post was days before our first born was heading to Kindergarten and since then she has already grown so independent it makes me want to cry…both happy & sad tears!  The first day went great and I managed to make it through without shedding any tears (that day anyway!). I think we were so busy trying to make sure she was okay and getting her to class on time with everything she needed, that I didn’t have time to be an emotional wreck. I did however manage to catch some sort of stomach virus or food poison (still not sure..) her first week of school. I felt so bad that the next day, even though I was feeling a little better, I didn’t have it in me to walk her to class that day so I did the only thing that I could do which was to DROP HER OFF AT THE CURB in front of the school.  This horrified me and I clearly was not ready to do this the first week of school b/c as she got out and started to walk away, I couldn’t help but start to cry. It still brings tears to my eyes thinking back to that day and how she walked herself in like such a big girl with no fears or worries.  So just after a month of school, our baby girl isn’t such a “baby” anymore, but of course she will always be to us. :-)

Here is a recent picture of her I took at her game last weekend….yes, she’s a cheerleader…for now anyway! She already told me on the way home from her first game “you might need to pull me out b/c cheerleading is hard work”…..such a funny girl :-)

This  was taken days before the flu got a hold of her, she was perfectly well that entire weekend and woke up Monday morning with 101 fever! Thank goodness she is better now and back to her crazy self. As usual, hoping that the boys don’t start showing the symptoms…I’m on guard with Tamiflu!!

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend….check back soon for holiday schedule updates and information. Yes, it’s that time of year again! :-)
