And Time Flies

Rainbow with no Rain

Our New Tree

It seems like this school year is just flying by. Annabelle is adjusting well to Kindergarten. She likes her school, has made some new friends and is generally happy! Here are a few funny things that she's told me about Kindergarten:
She has a "friend" named David who has been trying to kiss her, I asked if he was trying to kiss her on the cheek and she said "no,  on the LIPS"...I decided this was a good time to explain to her that little boys have cooties.
She also said that David asked her what the "spots" are on her face, she told him they are freckles. I guess David hasn't seen to many little white girls with freckles :)
She is in the "Ohio State" group - her class is sectioned off into groups according to their learning level, she is in the highest group.
Annabelle isn't 100% thrilled about getting a little brother, she still insists that she wants a little sister. I tell her it's a great thing she's getting a brother because she won't have to share her Barbies with him.

We got a new tree in the backyard over the weekend. Hopefully it will give the yard some much needed shade. The tree is a Laurel de la India and is supposed to grow rapidly. We sure hope it does! Stella and Annabelle have already been enjoying the tree.

Oh brother!

In January Amazing Annabelle will be a big sister!
