Catching up

I have tried to post on here a few times but was having some technical issues.
Kylee's last day of 1st grade was yesterday. I can't believe how fast the time has gone. Here she is on the first day of school:

And here she is on her last day:

I think her "baby" face is gone.

She had fun at her last day of school picnic. I wasn't able to snap too many pictures.

6 more weeks and she starts 2nd grade!!

Maleigha is slowly starting to walk. She is up to about 8-9 steps. She will be 15 months on Thursday! Here is a video of her walking, sorry it is turned the wrong way.

I haven't posted any weigh-ins lately but I am hanging in there. 2 weeks ago I was down .6 and last week I was down 1 lb.

We are all moved in. Thanks to my family for all of their help. I wouldn't have been able to do it without them and I hope they realize how grateful I am for them and their help.

Binga got in today and I am so excited for her visit. I will be sure to post pictures from her visit!!

Bragging

I am going to brag about my smarty pants daughter for a moment!
Kylee had an author party at school today. Last night she told me she was going to get a lot of awards and reminded me to bring my camera. The kids sang a few songs and then they each read 2 pages from a book they wrote. Then they had to come read their book to their parents and then go to 2 other parents and read it to them. It was a fun afternoon. **Kylee's face looks like it is dirty but I assure you that it isn't. She as a bad habit of licking above and now below her lips and it is chapped.**
Now onto the awards part! Kylee got 6 awards! I am SO proud of her!
She got the following awards:
*Spelling award--131% with Challenge Points
*First place--229 A.R. Tests
*Good Attitude Award
*100% Reading
*First place--reading 420 books on her reading log
*Penmanship award

This girl LOVES to read!!
Kelly wanted a picture of Kylee and Garrett, I jumped in. Garrett quickly said "Uh I am squished here"

The above picture is Kylee and her 1st grade teacher, Ms. Milton. I can't believe she has 1 week and 2 days left of 1st Grade!!

On a side note, we are moving this weekend!!! I have already moved some stuff over and started unpacking it. Here is a picture of Kylee's purple room, as she requested. Thank you mom for helping me paint it! I LOVE it!! Thank you also to all my family who have helped and are going to help us move. I appreciate you all!!

Back in it....

I think. I have attempted a post a few times but just haven't felt like doing it. I guess the May challenge made me a little sick of blogging.

Anyways, not too much going on here. Kylee started back to school this week, Maleigha has been crabby almost every day this week., and work has been super crazy this week. I am so looking forward to the weekend.

Thanks to my mom who helped me start painting Kylee's new room, she will now have the purple room she requested. It looks so cute! We are going to be moving in next weekend and I cannot wait! Kylee is excited too.

I haven't posted a "weigh in" lately but today I was down 2.6 yahoo!!

Other than that, there is not too much going on with us. Which is ok with me!
