Life, Where It's At

Thought I would finally update you on what we have been up too.  We've been pretty busy as you've probably noticed.  I'm hoping for life to slow down a bit, but I'm not counting on it.  I was hoping for that at the end of August, it is now mid October and I'm still waiting.  Anyways life has been great, tiring but great.  Our really good friends the Josh and Jamie Zacharias have been up for 5 weeks or so.  They surprised us at the beginning of September by coming up.  Josh was working for his brother in law finishing up some contracts.  It was really good to see them again.  We had lots of hang out times, they took up a lot of our time, but it was definantly worth it.  

Senaye has been busy with preschool on Tuesdays which she absolutely loves.  I gave her a choice today, did she want to stay at Grandma's an extra day or did she want to go to school, after a lot of thinking she chose school.  I'm really happy she loves it, there are a couple kids in her class that cry everytime their parents leave them.  I'm glad I'm not them.  

Senaye is also in a ballet class on Monday nights which she adores and also can't wait to go to.  If you can catch her in her right mood you may be able to get her to show you a couple of moves.  It's so cute.

Senaye has gone for a blood test to figure out why she's getting so many tummy aches and headaches.  It came back that her immunoglobin is low.  The test was sent back to see if she has Celiac disease or some other things.  Now its the waiting game.  Its great though that things are starting to move and that it might be something and she's not just a child that gets frequent tummy aches. 

Kadeja is growing up fast.  She's really interested in walking and wants to go everywhere big sister goes.  She gets quite frustrated if she can't.   She turned one on the 16th of September which I can't believe that time has gone by already.  Its just amazing.

Myself, I'm taking a couple dance classes.  A hip hop cardio class with my friend Melissa and a Jazz class by myself.  I love it, it feels good to be getting into shape and actually getting out once in awhile by myself, no kids.  I tried a ballet tech. class, which you learn the proper ways to doing ballet.   Extremely hard but I loved it.  I would do it, but its very expensive.  Next year maybe.  Thats life where it's at.  

Starting to grow up

Here we are entering September, entering normalcy and *sigh* familiarity.  I love things that are familiar, something so relaxing about it.  I do like adventure though to or at least I think I would like adventure.  Although there is nothing really all that familiar about September this year, everything is changing.  My first born is heading of to preschool and taking her first term in dance.  Its so sad but exciting at the same time.  Its thrilling to see her so excited about going to school, her cousins go to school and now she gets to go.  Plus she won't be bored at home, hopefully, anymore.  Sad though because she is growing up.  She's already 3 1/2, where has the time gone.  I have enjoyed it, but I still want to slow it down and enjoy the time I have left with her.  I know, I know its only preschool.  She'll soon meet friends and they will be her life and then before you know it she's off to college.  Ah well many people go through it, I can survive.

Kids are funny though, as I write this I hear her telling my hubby, many times I tell you, that she is going to get married.  So cute, she has no idea what it is, just what the princess Disney movies show her.  Really cute.  Three years old and already wanting to get married.
