MaKyra's Dance Recital

MaKyra had her dance recital a couple of weeks for ago. (It is about time I loaded my pictures.) I was disappointed because her pictures turned out blurry. I don't know what I did wrong, but oh well. She did such a great job. She really loves dancing. One really fun thing about the night is the dance company owner does a drawing with all the kids' names in it for free dance lessons the next year. We won!! She drew MaKyra's name. I couldn't believe it. Yeah us!! Free dance for a year.

We'll see!

So after going back and forth on going private or not. I think for now I will keep it open. I am pretty indecisive. We'll see.

Ultrasound

I had my ultrasound on Wednesday. Our family has been looking forward to this for awhile now. When I told MaKyra the ultrasound was that day, she said, "We get to go see my baby sister." I began talking to her about how it could be a boy - like I do everyday. Nevertheless, there was no changing her mind. Later that day we picked MaKyra and Gabe up from school and headed to the doctor. The kids were impatient watching the ultrasound when they realized we had to look at the head, heart, lungs, etc. before finding out what we were having. Finally they did tell us. It's a girl!! So exciting. I am surprised the whole doctor's office didn't hear Makyra's squeals of joy. I am so happy to have another little girl coming to our home.

Field Trip!

Gabe and I went on a field trip with MaKyra's class. We went to a petting zoo and saw baby bears. It was so fun. MaKyra was really excited to have Gabe there. Gabe loved the whole thing. He has talked about it everyday since.

Congratulations!

MaKyra graduated from kindergarten today. It was so fun. The kindergarten classes did a really cute perfromance with fun songs and actions. Then they passed out diplomas. She did such a great job. We are so proud of her. I can't believe school is almost out. It seems like we just started the school year. Way to go, MaKyra!

Cherry Pie

MaKyra was eating cherry pie today and said, "I like it, but they put cherries in it." I replied, "Well, it is cherry pie." To this, she responded, "Why? They don't put pumpkins in pumpkin pie."

I'm joining the privacy bandwagon!

I have decided to set our blog to private. If you would like to continue to view our blog please leave a comment with your email or email me at kamreeves at hotmail dot com. I'd be happy to have you.

Haircut

I got my haircut finally. I have been growing it out for a little over two years and it just got way to long for me. It was fun having it long but I was ready for something different. My aunt cut it yesterday and I feel relieved and refreshed. She cut about eight inches off. It is so nice to have a change. I started feeling like a pioneer. It is good to be back in the twenty-first century.

Nursing School

Matt started the nursing program last week. Today is his first day of lab which means the first day of scrub attire.
