Christa's first week of school

Christa started school this week and LOVES it!! She loves setting her clothes out like her big sisters. She had laid out outfits all across her floor for the first week of school. I told her it might be easier to keep her room clean if she just sets out clothes for the next day. She rode the bus for the first time and had a perma grin the whole time she was getting on. It was nice to have Mikayla Mount, Paige's friend, on the bus with her. Mikayla has taken Christa under her wing and has been very sweet taking care of her. Kaylei, Lexi, and Paige all ride the bus home with her. I was joking with my mom and bet her $5 that Christa had fallen asleep on the bus and Kaylei was trying to carry her off the bus and to the car. When they unloaded the bus sure enough Kaylei was half holding Christa because she had fallen asleep. I love how sweet Kaylei is with her siblings, she truly takes such good care of them.

Soccer

The girls had their first soccer games last Saturday. It was great to see them play. Christian is coaching Kaylei's team, Kaylei is an incredible goalie. Lexi played and did awesome, she has the nickname "Green Machine," she loves being on her friends team. Paige is one of the better players, she is pretty aggressive and had two break away goals. I love watching her play, she is constantly smiling, and of course Paige with her sugar addictions, on the way to the game she always has the same question "I wonder what the treat will be today." We were a little nervous about Christa, with this being her first year, but she did awesome. She wasn't afraid to take the ball from the other team or her own team, she made the first two goals.

First Day of School

Today was the girls first day of school. They have been so excited. Paige is starting 1st grade, she is going to skip kindergarten, she seems to have a great teacher Ms. Lefler. Lexi is starting 3rd grade she has Ms. Easley and Kaylei is starting 5th grade and she has Mr. Millwood. Kaylei was very nervous about what teacher she would get. When she came home from school today she said "I have the best teacher ever." Which makes me laugh because every year she tells me she has the best teacher. Kaylei really has lucked out in getting fabulous teachers. Christa will start preschool next Tuesday, she was a little sad that she did not start today, but excited that it is coming soon.
