We have so many first happening these past few weeks. So here it is Ashley's first time in a port-a-potty. And with Ashley's famous words "this is so disgusting." At soccer practice I have to say since it was first week of practice it was pretty clean and did not yet smell.
Emily deiced since Ashley and Chloe got to spend all day with Nana that Emily and Nana would go get their nails done while I took Ashley and Chloe to soccer practice. Can I mention we went shopping not very exciting since we went to the Green Hills mall which way to pricey for me now. Ashley was super excited to go to her first soccer practice. Hazel and Ashley are on the same team they have a love hate relation ship that is too funny. For the most part I think really love each other they just both a little jealous. Another little girl on the team is Ali that is Ashley's friend Blake' neighbor. The other team members all go to our church at Thompson Station which is nice. I think the other kids names are Will, Maddox, Coach Jesse, Hazel, Ali, Daxton and Garrett.
Ashley kicked the ball and was so proud of her self she had to run over and give me a high 5. This makes me laugh because this is what Emily use to do. Ashley is so proud of herself.
Ashley and her team mates getting ready to kick the ball. All I can say is I LOVE soccer it is a lot of fun to watch the kids enjoy it. I am loving being a SOCCER MOM!!!
I am a bit out of order on some post but it is alright I think. This is at the end of dance class. This Emily, her teachers and class mates all hugging. Emily knows one girl in her Combo I class Joslynn. Emily really likes the tap dance part of class. Emily went to fairy camp and princess camp at TDAC this past summer really liked it and had the same teachers.
It is hard to see this picture but it was so funny. Chloe really liked the tap dancing she kept sticking her head in the room making ooooh faces. Joslynn's mom Earca is holding her we were cracking up.
There is Emily doing her tap dancing look how grown up she looks.
Emily and other classmates listening to the teacher.
Emily's first day on the bus, we all walked her down to the bus Nana was here too. It was a family event. The bus driver could sense we were crazy because he let Emily get up again and wave goodbye. No tears I am truly happy, excited and proud of Emily. I am ready for this journey called school to start.
The whole family, even the dog. The whole family enjoys dropping Emily off at the bus, it is a good way to start today. We get to squeeze in some extra family time. Even though Emily is already getting embarrassed of all of us. It is out of love Emily I promise.
Emily is already to go on the bus for the first day. A disclaimer about the outfit. It was a PE day so I wanted Emily to be comfortable in what she was wearing we are not always going for style. Although I must say Emily would disagree. Tuesday and Thursday is PE I tell her she has to wear shorts and tennis shoes other days dress are fine. I gotta have some rules!! Emily I could tell you over and over how proud daddy and I are of you. You are getting to be such a big little girl.
Emily has to bring a nap mat for rest time and working in her cubicle. I know getting them ready for the real world. My dreams for you Emily is that you would not get stuck in a cubicle unless it is doing work you love. I am not hating on the cubicle I worked in one for a few years myself.
Ashley knows three girls in her class at ballet "little Savanah," we call her this so Ashley does not think of the neighbor Savannah notice name spelling is different too. Addison who is a new girl that I just met but Ashley and her are in the same class at church. They saw each other at Target the other day it was kind of strange I already don't know all of my daughters friends. Ella last but not least. Ella is a girl that lives one house down that Emily and Ashley just love. It is crazy to think that Ella use to hold Ashley when she was first born. Ella was baby crazy for Ashley!!
Here is a picture of Ashley and Ella together. Ella is a older then Ashley she is 4 but is very tall for her age. She is almost as tall as Emily. Ella and Ashley share the same name Grace.
Ashley all ready for dance class. Did you notice in the other pictures that Ashley is wearing black and everyone else is wearing pink?? Well I did not read the rules right, or I guess I should say I read the rules to early and they changed this age groups dress code. 3-4 years old, yes I know Ashley is still 2 but she will be 3 soon. Sniff, sniff I can't believe it. 
Ashley pushing Chloe back to the car. This is very hard for her to understand that Emily is going to school every day. She kept asking "what am I going to do?" It was so sad. 
This is Ashley in Emily's class, she was not happy all the attention has been on Emily and Emily starting school. Emily only went to school for a short period of time when Emily was about a year old. Even then Ashley did not like it and it was only two days a week. Ashley is getting use to Emily being gone at school all day. I think she has mixed emotions, she loves walking Emily to the bus stop and thinks she can get on too. She enjoys the extra attention when Emily is gone, and picking out the shows we watch. I think she misses Emily by the end of the day because she is happy to pick Emily up. However when we get Emily home then she none stop fights and picks on Emily. Wednesday we went to the park with friends, it was so weird not having the "big kids" there with us. This is just the start I am excited to get into a routine.
