The holiday fun keeps coming

Jordan had a chance to perform holiday music with her classmates yesterday. Her school held an after-school family choral performance (on a pre-school adorable level) and potluck dinner. So cool. Here’s one of their songs: I love this school. The kids are so creative and have so much fun. I feel very lucky to have…

An angel in our household

Miss Jordan performed in her dance studio’s holiday recital and it was stinking sweet. The funniest part was how she stretched out one of the straps while she was waiting to perform, so she was VERY exposed. But that didn’t stop her from being very cute. Enjoy the video!! If you can’t see it, enjoy…

I had a chance to get the kids to call Santa today… It’s so sweet to have a recording of the kids talking about their Santa list. Here’s Jordan’s: By the way, I get the call by getting a code from TelSanta.com. It’s very cool.

The last two days have been pure head butting with Jordan. She will not listen to my directions. She will do whatever it takes to defy me. She’s putting up a fight no matter how big or little the issue. Case in point this morning: We had set out her outfit for the day the…

One of those moments

Jordan loves getting her fingernails painted. It’s an ultimate girl experience for her. A few nights ago I was painting her nails before bed and decided to paint my nails too. She watched me with wide eyes and was surprised when I started painting my left hand. She mentioned how she forgot I had another…

Cameron and Jordan are fantastic and challenging kids. They teach me so much about life, love and patience. They are incredible kids. I’m thankful for my…

Dancing with her helper arm

Jordan is really listening at dance class these days – and I’ve seen her improve her balance with the help of her helper arm. But it’s also a little clunky during certain moves – like when she swings her arms out. She doesn’t really cognitively know if she’s going to bonk someone in the face.…
