Everyone was excited. No tears, no fears. Or maybe just a little from Lexi that it was going to “be boring”. In any case they were excited to wear their new duds. Emma loves her new boots and both got the high tops but only Lexi wore them today.
Emma’s hair is super curly today. We washed and put it up with some gel last night. She loves when it’s extra curly.
I cut both of their hair last night. Thankfully you can’t much tell with Emma’s but poor Lexi’s is a disaster at the edge. I’m pretty sure it’s uneven. But obviously she can’t stay still enough for anyone to even notice. We’ll definitely be making a trip to a salon in the near future.
Also, my first grader still took her blankies in the car with us. She might be getting bigger but she’s still my baby.
Now excuse me while I enjoy my celebratory comforting white mocha.

Cute pics as always. Enjoy your day working without the extra jobs (even though I know you will miss them)! It looks like they will enjoy theirs!! Mom

Oh my gosh, Amy, I don’t feel like I’ve known you for that long, and I’ve never even met your kids – just you! – but holy heck, those pictures surprised me. You used to have little girls – where did these people come from?

Love the cowboy boots and the high tops. Leila would definitely approve! Since the pair of Converse we bought with you guys, she has amassed a collection of them.
I can’t believe how much the Girls have grown (although it has been almost a year and a half since we were at the zoo)! Time really does fly.
Big hugs to ya’ll. xoxo

We looked at Converse but these are all black sequins 🙂 Hate we missed you guys at the beach this year.

Oh, My. Gosh. They are so pretty! Your oldest looks just like you Amy. I love how they have their own distinct style. Your youngest, with her blue scarf – a girl after my own heart. And will you ask your oldest if i can borrow her awesome boots? 😉 Too cute! Hope they have a fantastic year!!

Amy, I just came across your blog today, and I must say I am already enjoying it! Lexi has gotten so tall, and she still is as adorable as ever! Is she liking school?
Melina still talks about Lexi and how much fun she had with her when they went to school together. I have a picture of the two of them from Ms. Boni’s class that is really precious, I’d like to send to you. My email is Kaldonya@gmail.com if you wouldn’t mind sending me your address, I’ll get the picture right to you! Thanks!
