Lilly 's Burn

We had a pretty sad thing happen on the last day of school. We were all getting ready in the morning and it was hectic. Kayleigh had her 6th grade graduation and was supposed to be all dressed up. She wanted me to do her hair, so I tried my best but she didn't like it. I told her we could curl it to see if that would help. Anyways while I was busy with Kay's hair Lilly was right next to me and pulled the cord on the curling iron. It fell long ways on the inside of her arm. It was bad, so I took the girls to school and took Lilly straight to the doctors. He thought it might be a 3rd degree burn, but it turned out to be only a 2nd degree. I took this picture today, so it's been about 3 weeks and it is doing a lot better now, but there is still a spot without any skin. It's growing back slowly. Lilly has been amazing through the whole thing. She never even cries when I have to clean the dead skin off. I feel really bad about it and I hope she doesn't have too bad of a scar. We are all being very cautious to make sure she doesn't get any more injuries.

I just thought this was cute. I love to take pictures of my kids when they are asleep.

First Dance and Recital

Kayleigh went to her first dance. The whole 6th grade was invited for graduating elementary school. It is very strange to have Kayleigh getting so old. This is a whole new territory were entering now. I'm not quite sure how to go about it. She was really excited though and that was fun to watch. Her friend Ally came over about an hour before it started so they could get ready together. I had to take a picture when they were all done. It doesn't seem that long ago since my friends and I were going over to Sara's house to get ready for the dances.(crazy)
Kayleigh had her end of the year dance recital last weekend. She did a great job! We all loved watching her, even Noah. She has had a lot of fun with dancing this year. They put on the Nutcracker in December and also had a spiritual dance showcase that was really great. She's learned a lot about dancing and hope that next year will be even better.

Noah's Preschool Graduation

I'm kind of slow on this one, since his preschool graduation was a month ago. I can't believe how fast time goes by. I feel like Noah should still my little baby boy and now he's going to kindergarten next year. This was Noah's 3rd graduation from preschool, but I still love watching him sing and do all the cute actions. He wasn't into it as much this year, maybe that's because he's getting older. I think his favorite part were the brownies after it was over. Jeremy, Grandma, and I had fun watching him graduate.
Not the best picture.
Noah liked to sing this song the best. It was Little Boy Blue and he is pretending to be fast asleep.
