Robby's Birthday

Today we celebrated Robby's birthday. We had Pizza, cake and ice cream.
Our family always puts 3 candles on the cake no matter how old the person is.
The 3 candles signify the past, present and future.

Robby received some very funny cards...

and some presents he just wasn't sure what they were.

Leave it to Mike to find something unusual.

Mom and J.J. were enjoying themselves too.


Happy Birthday Robby!

Second Day of School


It was the second day of school, things didn't go quite as smoothly, J.J. was a little cranky getting dressed and then when we got to the class she didn't want me to go. I think she was still tired from the previous day.
I'm sure she'll get into the groove soon.

Back to School




J.J.'s first day back to school. She is now in 1st grade. She picked out her new purple dress to wear. She got the teacher she wanted, Mrs. Pinkley and she found out her best friend from Kindergarten, Desiree, would be in her class this year too. She was excited to start the day, she didn't hesitate to walk into the classroom. I wanted to cry, I just don't want her to grow up. Can't she stay this age forever?
