Kindergarten Promotion

Jaxon has his Kindergarten promotion today!!  I can't believe he is done with Kindergarten!!  How did this happen??  I feel like he was just born!  How can he be going to first grade already??  Sniff, sniff!  He looked so cute sitting up there!  He got the Classical Reading award (for reading 20 Classical reading books), the Memory Challenge award (for memorizing and reciting all of his memory challenges correctly) and the Teacher's Award for "Superb Fingerspelling".  We are so proud of our boy!!  Congrats Jaxon...we love you so much!!

Getting ready to sing his songs.  They sang "I Am Proud to be an American", "God Bless America" and a couple of other really cute ones.

Getting his "Kindergarten" medal.

My cute little man.

The Three Mustketeers...Ethan, Jaxon and Lucas.

Jaxon and his teacher, Mr. Young.

She is growing too fast!!

Look who found her toes...and learned to take off her socks!!

She found her toes!!  It is adorable!  She is infatuated with them!  She pulls her socks off every time we put them on.  Have I mentioned how much I love her??? 

The DOME!

It's summer time!!! That means being outside!!! Well...here in Southern California, we are a bit spoiled and we get to be outside all year long!
But...we like to pretend that we don't have summer all year round! So, we got a new jungle gym! Rich and my brother-in-law Evan (thanks Evan!) put this little monster together last weekend. I think we made Jaxon's life with this one.

He loves it.
He fell off it the first day.
He cried.
He got back on it.
He still loves it.

Come over...play on our jungle gym. If you fall, too...I have ice.

He looks so cute!

The hard workers!

He is so handsome!

A boy and his jungle gym...bliss.

Jaxon....such a great BIG brother!

So...when we came home from church  on Sunday, Ella went down for a nap.  Rich and I went in the backyard to pick some veggies from the garden.  I was outside for just a few minutes and I walked in, and I couldn't find Jaxon.  When I walked by Ella's room...I heard him talking really softly to Ella.  I slowly opened the door, and this is what I found.

HE said she was crying and she "needed a cuddle."  I love this kid.
