Gabriella's 10th Birthday

Today is Gabriella's 10th Birthday. I surprised her with a bunch of balloons when I picked her up from school. We invited my Mom, Lil Sis Caroline, Lil Bro Dalton, and the neighbor Destiny over for cake. I can't believe she is already 10!! Where has the time gone?

Normally when you go into Middle School you have to get up earlier and you get home earlier but not with Explorer K-8. Her bus picked her up the first day @ 9:07am and dropped her off ar 5:15pm. So needless to say I was late to work yesterday. She was pretty excited when she got home. She has a few friends from last year in her classes and got to reunite with an old friend from a few years ago named Oceanleigh. All in all she likes it. She is very excited about the Spanish class and keeps practicing the few spanish words she learned yeasterday.

Darion's 11 Year Check-Up

Darion had her 11 year old check up on August 5th. I had to take her in to get her Physical to participate in school sports this year. She was a little scared but survived it. She had to have 3 shots. She wasn't happy about that. I also have to take her in for blood work tomorrow...that won't be fun. The doctor said she has scoliosis so she also has to go in for x-rays. I will up date this when we find out something. Hopefully it's not a big thing. She is 5 foot tall...I only have 1 inch left on her :(
