After a few days of relaxing and not doing much of anything it was time to get back to reality. Jennifer started back to school on Tuesday. I have to admit I was a little nervous about how she would do at drop off after being gone for two weeks. She of course did amazing, she was actually very excited to go back to school. She was even happier to go back this morning. There is a little trampoline at school that the kids get to jump on during center time and it has been all Jennifer can talk about when you ask her about school, needless to say she loves it. There are also some bouncy balls that the kids get to bounce on that she really liked, so life is good at school. Speaking of school, Bill also started back to school this week. He on the other hand has not been as excited as Jennifer. Lots of books to read, papers to write and projects to do. The other night Bill told me all that he had to read in just this first week, all I could do was nod my head and smile. It was a lot! I thought I would share a few more pictures from our holidays. I am a little disappointed that we don't have any pictures from New Year's Eve. We spent a short time at a friends house, where there were lots of friends for Jennifer to play with and of course we didn't take our camera. It was sweet to see Jennifer playing with her friend Gracie, who just a few weeks before Christmas had open heart surgery (again). This sweet little girl, who just turned two, has had her ribs split eight times for surgery! At two she has been on the verge of death more than once and yet there she was running around her house playing on New Year's Eve! It was very sweet to see her running and playing with all the kids. We didn't get to stay long because Jennifer had not had a nap that day so we were home and in bed by ten-thirty!
Jennifer playing basketball! As you can see she has to stand on her stool to play or so she thinks. She is actually getting kind of good, she was playing the other day and made several baskets in a row.
Jennifer got a Dance Cam for Christmas. If you haven't seen or heard of it, you plug it into your tv and it projects you on the tv. It is kind of cool. Because Jennifer thinks that she is the center of everything she thinks its quite fun to see herself on tv.
This is Bill's grandparents with all their great-grand kids! Totally craziness is what it is. Trying to get 11 kids to sit for a picture, let's be honest it's not going to happen. Jennifer was by far the worst, she really did not want to have her picture taken at this point in the day. This was the closest she got to everyone. I'm pretty sure I caught her as she was getting up to move away from everyone. The even funnier thing is to see all the adults trying to take pictures!
I just think this is a great picture. Jennifer thought she needed to sit by me and mama (how Jennifer says grandma) while eating breakfast one morning. So being funny Bill went and got the camera, Jennifer then reached up and put her arms around me and my mom. It was actually very sweet. Mama, Jennifer and I enjoying some love at breakfast.
