This little sweet pea loved swimming in her baby pool this summer. We put up "Avery's pool" every other day it seemed and she had so much fun playing in it! She is certainly a water baby!
We moved into our new house in the middle of July! We were all so excited to finally get in our own house again!
Woo-hoo!!!!!
Ta-dah!!! It's our new house!
Jayda was super happy to get her very own room back! She's been sharing a room with Sydney for the past 2 years since we've been back in Huntsville. She loves her own space. :)
Avery was pretty darn excited to get her own room too! She even got her very own closet, and doesn't have to share with Mommy anymore. :)
Sydney loves her new room! She was so happy to get her own room after sharing with Jayda for the past few years.
Jayda turned 8 years old over the summer on July 24th! She is getting so big and grown up! The morning of her bday she went to art camp with her BFF, Gabby. They had lots of fun that morning and finished painting all of their pottery pieces that they had made over the week. After art camp Jacob picked up Jayda and Gabby and brought them to our house. I had made lunch for everyone so we ate and then enjoyed some yummy cookie cake and ice cream for her bday. Jayda opened all of her bday presents and then we headed off to Splashtown! All that Jayda wanted to do for her bday was to go to Splashtown with her best friend, so luckily we made that happen. :)
Opening her bday presents.
Birthday cake time!!
And then it was back to school time! It seemed like the summer went on forever in someways, but in other ways I can not believe summer is already over! The girls met their teachers last Thursday. They both really like their teachers and I think they are going to have a great year!
Heading out the door to meet and greet last thursday evening.
Sydney's kindergarten teacher is Mrs. Alton.
Jayda's 3rd grade teacher is Mrs. Moss.
And then it was the first day of school! It's so crazy that summertime is already over!
I can not believe that we now have a 3rd grader! Holy moly, time is flying by so fast! Jayda is growing up into such a sweet and mature little girl. We know that you are going to have a great year and we love you so much Jayda Michelle!
And of course they had to get a picture with their little Daisy dog!
It does not seem possible that our little Sydney is already in kindergarten!!! I was absolutely not ready for this day to come! Sydney is quite the little mommy's girl and has enjoyed her time at home with me. Last year in pre-k she dropped down from going 3 days a week to going 2 days a week so that she could be home with me. :) She is such a sweet girl and has such a good heart. I am so sad that I won't have my little buddy around all the time, but I know it's time. It's time for her to spread her little wings and grow up. She is so excited about kindergarten and had a great first day. Mommy is going to have some adjusting to do, but hopefully I will get used to it soon. We are so proud of you Sydney Anne and love you to the moon and back!
