We have two kids in Braces. Lillian and Elliott both got braces within 5 months of each other.
Spring 2017 -Lillian started horse back riding lessons. She loves them, minus having to wear closed toe shoes and a helmet. Its Therapeutic Horse back riding and she really has excelled.
Elliott played Basketball and Steven coached. They had a great season and it was so fun to cheer them on. Elliott rocks at defense.
Jackson played baseball. He loved it. The rules were a little off for me, but it was nice to be outside and cheering on my favorite little cub!
Summer was amazing we had trips, camps, or activities each week. We were so busy but so happy!
In August Jackson started Transitional Kindergarten at the local Elementary School! Which meant all my kids were in school full time! I feel like my sanity is beginning to return. Eman and Jman are at the same school this year and so its been a great blessing!
Lillian started with two new teachers this year. In two new classrooms. Lots of changes. They are also building a jr high school on her elementary school campus so they tore down the playground much to her dismay. Second grade has been a learning curve for Lillian and I. I am realizing how much work Lillian puts into understand and hanging on to understanding what goes on in her general education classroom. We also have had to really stay on top of communication at the beginning of the year she was getting to thick homework packets from both her general education teacher and her Deaf and Hard of hearing teacher. Add her 7.5 hours of after school therapy and thats not a lot of time to be a kid. Luckily we got it worked out.
Halloween I was an Amazon (from Wonderwoman) Lillian was Princess Elena, Jackson was a Ninja (second year but new costume because he grows so fast). Elliott was a one Eye one horn flying purple people eater. A cute costume he and I made up while walking around Micheals in October.
November we went on the epic Disney Cruise! Which was amazing and the kids will talk about for the rest of their lives. Sadly we had a loss of a family member while sailing in the Caribbean. Came home to plan the memorial and have Thanksgiving was spend surround by family.
Lillian choose to be Baptized that weekend also making it super special.
December came and went. We keep Christmas so super simple this year and it was delightful.
