Two Bits, Four Bits….

Bout time I blogged!!  Sorry for the month or two long break, it’s been a busy summer to say the least. 

We are well into our Kindergarten and Pre School year now, so Mom has a moment to gather her thoughts and get them down on paper, well online.  Gracie is enjoying Kindergarten and her teacher, Ms. Rhodes, is wonderful.  She loves P.E. and has taught us all how to do pushups. J  Savannah is still going to Kountry Kids just three days a week; however, Matthew is threatening to start her at five days a week.  I think ol’e Mr. Mom is tired of driving the bus route in the morning to drop the girls off at two different places.  It does get old, but… Grandma Becky isn’t quite ready to give her baby doll up either.  I can’t say that I blame her!!

Gracie is a very busy girl these days!  She’s cheering for Pop Warner football in Chiefland, the Mighty Indians and then dancing, tap and ballet at D&D Studios.  We have activities every night of the week and usually don’t get home until 7:00pm.  It’s hectic and sometimes hard – she complains in the mornings, but come game time, she’s happy to be a cheerleader.  She told me last night that she loves to cheer but wishes she didn’t have to practice.  I mixed it up last night for them at practice - we worked on cart wheels and jumps.  I think they all had a good time.  I’m coaching her squad along with two other great moms. The three of us make quite a team!!  I have had a blast this year and have already dedicated myself as a coach for next year’s squad – all three of us have.  We have watched our girls turn into tiny cheerleaders and not only do we think they’re awesome, we have been told by several others that our group looks GREAT!!!  And we agree!!
