Addison turns 6!

Our little girl sure doesn't seem so little anymore....she is 6!!!!! We celebrated her birthday party at Spirits Gymnastics and had a great time with 19 of her friends/cousins. It was a lot of little kids and I am pretty sure they all had a great time!
All the kids being patient and waiting to get started on the beams.
She loved it. She would love to take gymnastics but she is enrolled in 2 dance classes this year so that will keep her plenty busy.
The bars and pit was a big hit.
Even Bob joined in on the fun!!!
The birthday girl getting some special attention.
All the kids received a medal at the end of the party which was fun!
All the kids sporting their medals!
The cake.
Our big 6 year old.
On Addison's actual birthday we enjoyed some time at Monkey Joes and then she really enjoyed 2 servings of ice cream....why not, right?

First day of school!!!

This was an important first day of school this year....Addison started Kindergarten. It was a long time coming since she has a September birthday and we were all so excited when the day finally came for her to start "big kid school." She had zero worries about leaving for school and getting on the bus. She is only in half day kindergarten (am) so it is a pretty quick 3 hours or so that she is gone. She loves her teacher, doesn't mind the work too much and has already made some new friends.
Here are the first day of school pics. She is all ready to go in the outfit that my Mom got her.
Her friend Erin is in her class and at the same bus stop which is great.
So excited to be on the bus.
Lucas also had a big first day....he is in Pre-k now and we made a very big deal about how he is in the "big kid class" at school. This was his first year going without Addison and he has done great so far. He was so excited to see his friends from last year and is happy to be back.
