SUMMER VACATION!

SCHOOLS OUT FOR SUMMER!
What an interesting end of the school year.  I had to suspend three students on the last day of school, it was awful.  The last day ended up being great, however, but still sad inside.  I went to bed at 8:30 that night, and slept until 7am, it felt so good.
The family is doing great.  Madison is now 2yr 2mo and such a wonderful little chatterbox.  She has seemed a bit moody lately, but we're chalking it up to being a toddler.  For the most part, she is very polite and listens either the first or second time we say something.  The countdown to time out works EVERY time, it's amazing.  I can't remember the last time I had to actually put her on a time out.  Her longest sentence has been 11 words.  She did great at her 2yr old well visit, and doesn't need one now until she's 3, amazing.
Jayden is 10.5mo  grows to be more fun every day.  He can say, "ball", "clap", and "uh oh" now.  He also will clap and sometimes wave.  He STILL is not crawling, but he cruises around the whole house while holding on to furniture.  I can't believe that he will be one in like 6 weeks!!!  Madison and Jay just love each other and are so sweet to each other.
We went to Dave & Buster's last night to celebrate Annette's birthday and had a blast.  We won a ton of tickets and got Maddie a barking/walking dog and Jayden a D&B ball.  We hung out at the Fountains afterward with K&W and K&J. 
I've now completed two Master's courses, and have had the first class of my 3rd, Movement and dance. It is hard to keep up with class and papers, but I can't wait for that raise.
Renee's wedding is in 2 weeks, and I found my bridesmaid dress today for a great deal!!  Alana had her baby girl last week, as well as our friend Melissa.  We have two other friends who are due this summer, as well as my cousin's wife.  So many weddings and babies!!!!
LIFE IS GOOD!
