Abby Celebrates Mother's Day and Kate Walks!

May and August are my 2 busiest times of the year...school ending (yeaaaaaa!!!!) and school starting. I am pulled in a million different directions. Since my last post, Kate has become quite an accomplished walker. I put up some pictures of her walking, but if you keep scrolling down you can see her in action. I call her "little Bambi". For about a week she would take a couple of steps, start stumbling to the side, and then fall. Michael was constantly asking her what she's been drinking. You would have thought her formula was spiked! ha Yesterday, Abby's class had their "Mother's Day Tea." This is a cute little tradition that her preschool does. Last year I was 37 weeks pregnant, about to pop, and I cried through the whole thing. My emotions were at an all time high, and I was so scared about how this new little baby was about to come into our lives...Would I have enough time for Abby? Would I have enough time for the baby? Would Abby still realize that I love her? All these questions...and the answer to all of them....YES!!!! So, this time I was faced with a whole new set of questions and fears...This is it for preschool...how will starting BIG school be? Will she stay this sweet forever? I am happy to report though that I only shed a few tears...not blubbering like last year. At this year's lovely tea they had a cute little plate that they had drawn on and decorated, a cute little hat pin for me to wear, cupcakes and fruit that they had prepared, and a picture that they decorated with answers to questions about their moms.
Let me read you Abby's answers to questions about me:
My mother's name is Shanna.
My mother is I think 15 years old.
My mother weighs 9 lbs. (I WISH!!!!)
My mother is 5 feet tall.
Her favorite food is pasta. ( I do like pasta, but I LOVE mexican food!)
I like it when my mother cooks macaroni.
My mother's favorite place to go is Wal-Mart (I laughed so hard at that one!!!)
When I am at school my mother is at school-teaches kids.
She was pretty close on a lot of them. :)
I also put a video of Abby's class singing their ABC song.
Here is Abby singing her songs!

The 3 girls...Best Friends...Abby, Kate, and Aryn

They're so cute...I wish they could go to school together next year!

Singing pretty :)



Here is the whole class. I'm going to miss her preschool so much. I just love it!

I thought this was so cute of Kate. CrAzY hair!!!

This picture is kinda blurry, but it was such a cute shot of her walking.

This cracks me up!!! She is running, laughing, and trying to catch me all at the same time.

No clothes....It's HOT here in Arkansas...and sticky!!!!

Look at those legs! Precious!!!

Wouldn't you love to know what they think?!?!?
Here's Kate WALKING!!!!!!

Michael was outside working on something so Kate was standing at the door watching him. You will also notice her bow hanging down off the side of her head. The child can't ever seem to keep her bows in!
