Jordan celebrated her 100th day of school this past Monday and it was a very exciting day for her. Each student took in a 100 day project (which was something made of 100 things). Her teacher sent home a letter explaining that as parents we should allow our child to be creative with this project and let them do as much as possible. So, me being the very open parent that I am, I asked Jordan what she wanted to make for her 100 Day Project. With great joy she decided that she wanted to take in 100 cupcakes for her and her classmates. I commend her for the idea of 100 cupcakes (Who doesn't like 100 cupcakes!) for her and her friends but I saw this a little bit more of a project for myself than her. So, after many days of persuasion I finally talked her into a construction paper cupcake with 100 skittle sprinkles on it. Well, it turned out pretty cute but I am not for sure how many of the skittles were still on the construction cupcake after a 25 minute bus ride. The following picture was one I caught when she got home. She was very excited about this 100 Day crown she made! Uncle Anthony, Aunt Nikki and Cousin Paige sent her a Baby Alive for Christmas and she was very excited as you can see in the following picture.
And she is continuing to do well with her piano lessons. She has her first recital this weekend and we are all very excited about it. We have decided that we need a real piano (not a keyboard.) She is very excited about that idea.

The following picture was taken last Friday night. We took the kids to go swimming at the gym but there were many things going on in the pool. We decided that since our children are not great swimmers ("Great" is an understatement) we would just play wall-ball. They had a good time. It wasn't the same as swimming but still a fun family evening out.
