Since I started this thing I thought I would post an update on the girls. I was thinking about sending one of those Christmas letters that I have received from friends and family but this is blogging thing is something everyone can check in with on a regular basis. That being said here are some of the updates with Amaris and Madeliene....
Amaris started Kindergarten this year, her schedule is full days Tuesdays and Fridays and half days Wednesdays. I volunteer in class Tuesdays and just recently for her in class Halloween party. It just so happened I manned the same when I volunteered for Madelienes Halloween party in Mrs Posts class Madelienes kindergarten year. The cookie decorating station, messy but fun. Its amazing how those kids can make a cookie disappear under spoon fulls of sprinkles and m&m's. OK, back to Amaris. She is loving school, wakes right up in the morning and loves riding the bus even more. She has lost her first tooth, with 3 more to follow here shortly. She also just finished her first season of soccer. She loved it, and boy does that girl have a power kick! She has learned from sissy how to talk to her team mates when passing the ball and such. She loves to read, sing and dance and we often find her in front of the big mirror on the closet in our room. Her imagination station is always on!
Madeliene, oh that girl is my screen-ager. She loves her phone and the computer! If she isn't outside playing soccer or jumping on the trampoline she is almost guaranteed to be on the computer or in her room chatting on the phone. This is her first year in middle school, yep 6th grade already. I cant believe it. Walking into Mrs Posts class on Amaris' first day of kindergarten brought back memories of the day I did that with Madeliene and it seems like it was just yesterday. Now she is 5'8 and wears a size 9 women's shoe. She graduated from glasses to contacts and is loving that. She has finished fall outdoor soccer and has started indoor soccer at the sportsplex. Its a nice break from the cold, windy weather that will be our typical weather here soon. She is doing fine health wise with the exception of a knee effusion she has. It seems there is a boy at school that likes to trip cute girls and Madeliene fell victim to his cruel flirting and she fell directly on her knees on the cement. Her doctor says effusion caused by injury such as this usually resolves on its own but if not she will need to have it drained (effusion is a pooling of blood and fluid under the knee cap) OUCH.
So there ya have it. A little update on my girls. They have been little troupers these last couple months. With Dad being sick and things being a little stressful its nice to know they are flexible enough to flow those times when Ron has to go to doctors appts or when he has been in the hospital. (I will blog on that soon)
