Mommy Kylie Day May 25th

I got to take Kylie with me to my hair appointment this morning, where Shahna gave her the special hair and nail treatment while we waited for my hair to color. Sis got a shampoo and trim on her hair, and then she got to have her nails painted. She grinned and giggled the whole time. Then it was off to school, where I spent the rest of the day with her. We had lunch at the Kindergarten table, where Brandt was happy to join us and entertain the surrounding little boys. Then we headed to the movie theater for The Peanuts Movie. I'm not sure how I could have forgotten just how loud and bumpy it can be in the back of a school bus, but I was quickly reminded. The movie was great and Kylie was thrilled to have me there with her. I'm so happy that my kids are at an age when they still like to be seen with me.

Last Day of Kindergarten May 25th

Princess Kylie usually has a hard time dragging out of bed (just like her mom) and today was no exception. Finally she got moving so I could fix her hair special for the last day of school. She only made me undo it and try again a couple times before she was satisfied lol. By the time I took her to grandma's so I could head to work, she was excited and ready to go. She is sad to be leaving Miss McMinn and Miss Paula Ward, but she is proud to be growing up and heading to 1st grade.

Bring a Friend to Dance Day

Kylie has absolutely loved dance this year! Today was her last and favorite day. Amanda Jean got to come try it out as her friend and then they had a pancake party at the end of class. This was also the first class I was able to go watch and I was so impressed by how much Kylie has improved. She smiled and had fun the entire time!! I love the confidence that it has helped her build and I'm excited to watch her again starting in the fall.

Kylie wrote most of her own talk for primary today. She did such a great job! She's come so far from the little girl last year who was still too scared to say a word once she got up in front of everyone. An added bonus was that Bryce came to church with us today so he got to go in and listen to her give it along with my parents and me. Bryce was asked to do the lesson in Elder's today and I was told afterward that he did a great job. It's something that terrifies him, so I was so proud of him for going through with it. Brandt decided that he didn't feel well when it was time for him to go to sharing time, so he went to Relief Society with me. We ended up having baby Tadyn back with us while grandma Sonja gave the lesson. It wasn't the best way to teach buddy that primary is more fun than relief society- he loved it! He's so good with babies! He and Kylie both want a baby in our family so much! Recently they were talking about adopting a baby since our friends Dallas and Jaci Keetch just adopted a baby girl, and I heard Brandt telling Kylie about how we would have to have a home study done. Since our house is too small and wouldn't pass they came up with a plan to have the home study done at grandma Ellen's and then we would just move back to our house once we got our baby. If only it were that easy lol.
