The 2012-2013 school year is coming to an end today. And for the first time in a long time, I'm excited about it! It's been a tough year for Kailey and Ashlyn, the adjustment from the different curriculum has been very hard; for all of us! After today, I'll have a 1st grader, 3rd grader, 5th grader, and 6th grader - MIDDLE SCHOOL! How in the world did that happen!?
Kailey just finished her 7th year dancing. Next year she'll be in Ensemble (a new name for performing class which she's been in for 3 years already) tap, jazz, and hip hop, she'll audition for TEAM again this year, and she's working on her grades so she can audition for Company. Miss Dori said she's a good candidate, so we told Kailey that and I hope it's more motivation for her.
Ayden will be moving over to Novi hockey. Kensington Valley was a joke and the coaches didn't teach him anything new. He'll also be in band in middle school - I'm sure once we get his instrument, it's going to be loud in here! We also just got his mouth completely braced and he's teeth look amazing!
Ashlyn has decided to dance again, so she'll be doing tap. She's already claimed a pair of Kailey's tap shoes. She's very excited. Ashlyn turned 8 on Tuesday and we threw her a surprise party, and she was very surprised! It was great! We had all the neighbors at the pool and cabana and we had a great time!
Dylan's meds have been adjusted and things have been really good with him. We were thinking about holding him back at school, but once we saw his progress (once he was on the correct meds) and realized he caught up with the rest of the class, we knew it was best to go onto 1st grade.
Riley is a bugger butt and not very interested in potty training. So instead of preschool in the fall, I'll think he'll go to a childcare facility twice a week with our neighbors girls. He also likes to dance, but he has to be potty trained for that.
Kailey is slated to start her "mouth project" July 13th. Ugh.
I had surgery on the 4th to have my gall bladder removed. I started having attack in November, but I had one on the 1st and decided to drive myself to the hospital. I had an utrasound done and I had stones. They released me because the surgeons were very busy. I ended up going back on the 2nd because I was very uncomfortable and vomiting. I was admitted to observation for the night. On the 3rd the hospital lost power and the surgeon came in to talk to me and we scheduled the removal for the next morning since they couldn't do the surgery without power. So on the 4th I got sleepy meds in my IV and they did a laparscopic surgery. 3 incisions on my upper stomach and one in my belly button for the camera. The surgery or recover wasn't that bad, but the CO2 to inflate my stomach is painful! I still have a pocket in my rib cage.
