Ellas visit and Olivia's party

I only took a few pics of Ella and the girls and none all together. WE had a great relaxing time!!!!Thanks Kendra for coming!!!

ALso Madison got to go to a Sweet and Sassy Party and she had a blast!

PS Madison scored her first soccer goal of the season! She scored it in the first minute of the game. She was so excited and we are so proud of her!!! I wish you all could see this team. They are full of team spirit and they cheer each other on! Go to my friends list and hit soccer monkey to see what they are up to.

Madison's progress report:)

SO I love that Madison's teachers are going to start sending home a paper each friday saying how their week was!! Madison's first couple of weeks have been good. Madison loves school and talks about it all day long. On top of that she loves sonshine school thanks to Mandy and Jennifer!!! At school the paper said Madison made good choices and worked indepndently most of the time, particpates in group,etc. The one thing that wasnt the greatest is she got needs direction from teacher when interacting with others. Side note said "Sharing and taking turns are hard at times for her" I defintely know this about her in fact i wrote it on my first day paper. She is impatient like her mother:) Anyway she knows what will happen if that note appears again:) She also got a comment saying she was overheard talking to a friend that had some trash in her hand. Madison told her "Would you like me to get the trash can for you? I can help you throw all of that away" I told her how proud I was of her. She is my sweet impatient child and I love her for it! Hope everyone has a great weekend!!
PS How do you get a child to stop lying? She has begun telling fibs sometimes stories. For example, she had a hole in her shirt and I asked her what happened and without hesitation she told me "___cut my shirt with the scissors" I asked her if she was telling the truth and she said "no I caught it on the door" ps Lets just say I found out that my husband used to lie very easily about things when he was younger. Oh boy am I in trouble when my kids are teenageers!!! I love them to death but they can be trouble when they want to. Of course they are sweet when they want to be too!

Should I take her to the doctor???

This may seem like a really stupid question to those of you with kids. About 3 weeks ago Allie got her head smashed (on accident by her sister) on the tile floor. Her lip bled some and all day she was messing with her teeth. Well just in the past couple of days I noticed her tooth is turning black. It doesnt appear to be loose. Should I take her in or not worry about it?
WHen I was about her age I fell and both of my teeth turned black. Those of you I'm sure have noticed that my front 2 teeth are very discolored. They have been this way since my permanent teeth came in. The reason they came in like this was from the trauma to the baby teeth. Sounds strange but it does happen this way according to the dentist. I guess I am praying hers doesnt come out like mine because my teeth have traumatized me. I have never been able to afford to get them fixed (venners or something) They have been the source of a lot of self esteem issues for me!!! (and still is) I guess I will just start saving now so I can get them fixed for her if it happen:)
SO back to my question. Do I need to take her to the doctor/dentist???

The week ahead

I am so exicted! Sonshine school starts on Tuesday. I can tell I am going to have a WONDERFUL class and I know a lot of them already! Madison can't wait to go to 2 schools and have Ms. Leslie pick her up on the "bus" :) SHe will be exhausted so I hope she can make it through SSS with no melt downs because she still takes naps. I am excited that Allie gets to go back to school. SHe loves it so much and this year she gets to go on the playground and go to music! Let's just hope for some potty training soon:) She has been telling me right when she goes in her pull up. however she calls peepee poop. Everytime she goes she says "uhoh i pooped." Kind of cute! Anyway I hope everyone has a great week and for those of you who are teaching at SSS I am excited to get to talk to you again! Although I have to say I will miss my 2 free days:)

trip to Jenks aquarium

WE decided to take a short trip the the aquarium. The girls loved it. NOt nearly as good as the Denver aquarium but still fun!

scary story!

Ok so MOnday I picked Madison up from school and I asked her what she did. SHe said " MOm we did the coolest thing. We turned out the lights and we got to point with the flashlight at our favorite center. It was so much fun. WE also closed our eyes and listened to music. I did not think anything of it. I just thought she loved her day. I found out tonight that they had been on lock down because of a strange man seen by the highschool. Good to know they didn't think anything of it thanks to her WONDERFUL teachers who dealt with a situation like this for the first time!!! HEre is the link to the story in the news on Monday (probalby could have been a prank:) http://newsok.com/article/3288436/

What did Madison do the first day of school?

Here is what she told me:
*I played with games. dart games
*I played in the pretend room that has lots of babies in there and there was plates, spoons, forks, knives, bowls, phones, dishwasher, sink so we can wash our hands.
*THere were crayons and paper to write on but i didnt do it because i didnt want to.
*There was a snack center but i didnt want any.
*I rolled on a mat
*There was a rocking boat and a big slide inside.
*I played with Kayla and we were having a party.
*There was a boy who hit me but I didnt do anything to him.

PS I put a band aid on her thumb so that she wouldnt suck it. It has worked wonders the last few days.
We went to chuck e cheese afterwards and had a blast!
