17 days until kindergarten

Just for fun...here are Paul's and my kindergarten pictures!

As the day that Addi goes to big girl school approaches, I can only help but wonder if my mom and Genie felt so sad when it was time for Paul and I to go to school?
On another note, we have decided to send Levi to K3 3 days a week. We think it will be good for him to be around some other kids his age and to learn some things too! He will be going Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from nine until noon. Life in the Kelsey house will never be the same.

The Beach, Club Libby Lu, and Levi's New Sheets

I'm finally getting around to posting some pictures!! I know I'm behind, but I promise I'll try to do better now that our internet is fixed. Please comment to let me know you're stopping by! Hope you enjoy!

Levi loved the sand and water!
Addi got to go to Club Libby Lu for a Libby Du Makeover. This was a special treat for going to bed early the last few weeks in her own room and in celebration of going to Kindergarten in a few weeks!

I know this is ridiculous!!!

I know it's been a WHILE! Here I am in need of bullet blogging again. For some reason, I just haven't been overly motivated to blog. Sometimes I wonder if anyone besides my mom and Paul are even reading this and they already know everything that I'm putting on here! Anyway, here goes:
  • We had a GREAT week at ICYC!
  • Followed by a GREAT week in Branson with the Kelsey side of the family. It was nice to spend some time with all of Paul's family. We spent 4 days at theme parks- two at Silver Dollar City and two at Celebration City. Addi is a little daredevil and would ride anything they would let her ride because of her height. She was upset that she couldn't ride one of the roller coasters that turned you completely upside down!! Levi liked all the rides too. We also got to go to the Dixie Stampede which was awesome as usual! Levi was a little ill about having to go (should have left him at home), but it was still fun. Thanks again, Charles and Genie, for the wonderful trip!!
  • Then we had one week at home. We enjoyed a nice July 4th at my parent's house with family. Leslie was visiting from California so Addi was super excited about that!
  • We left on July 5th and spent a week on vacation with my family in Ft. Morgan, AL. It was great too! The kids had never been to the beach and they loved it!! We did some school clothes shopping for Addi (Thanks, Granna!) too. We ate at Lambert's, home of the throwed rolls, and it was delicious. Thanks Mom and Dad for everything!
  • I took Lila to the dr. Monday morning. She was scheduled for her 9 month checkup (I can't believe she's that old!), but she was running a fever so we had to postpone the well baby visit for another time. She had an ear infection (I could have told him that before he even looked at her), sinus infection, and a pussy throat...poor baby. She weighed 20 pounds, 4 ounces and was 27 3/4 inches long. She is getting so big!! I looked into the video monitor yesterday morning and she was standing up holding onto the rails (needless to say, Paul spent half the morning lowering her mattress!). She is also getting quite the personality and is not so happy being left alone any more. She also thinks she is quite the comedian!
  • Levi is still working on his potty training. He has made major progress but still has some work to do. He seems like he's grown two feet in just a couple of months!
  • Addi is so excited about Kindergarten! She goes on August 13th for her first day of big girl school. She has tons of new clothes and is certain to be quite the fashionista. She already thinks she has Billy lined up to come early on that first morning to do her hair (like he did mine on my first day of K). I have to admit it makes me a little sad. I always said I wouldn't be "one of those crying moms" on the first day, but now I'm not so sure! I know it's time for her to go onto this next step, but I'm going to miss her being here every day, all day!
  • I haven't done well on my dieting throughout all these vacations and just summer in general...so I'm back with it as of today...pray for me!
  • I guess that's all for now. I'll try to get some pictures up of the kids soon!
