Rylee {Spring 2019}

Things I do not want to forget at 6 going on 7 years old:
  • Rylee's love for all things animals. When she grows up she wants to be a barrel racer in the rodeo and a veterinarian. 
  • Still ask for a pet horse daily.
  • She has the biggest heart and is very sensitive. 
  • Asks every single night at bedtime for Daddy to tell her all the planets on her nightlight asks me every single night at bedtime to lay with her just a little bit ;)
  • LOVES school and is very smart.
  • Likes to write in cursive (not cursive but just loopy letters - I don't have the heart to tell her it's not cursive)
  • Makes friends easily. Her 'besties' right now are Nethra from class and Andrea from the playground. They play together everyday after school, have playdates at parties and their houses, and always hold hands <3
  • Has the most contagious laugh and still our Smiley Rylee :)
  • "What are these blue things all over me, mommy?" I told her how they are your veins and they carry blood throughout your body. She said, "Oh! Kind of like they are going on a field trip in my body!" *thanks Magic School Bus :)
  • Reading the end of a book that was a letter and it said, XOXO. She read it "tic tac toe"
  • "What I am about to say is kind of baddish goodish"
  • "hanitizer"

Book Character Parade Day at school - Dr. Rylee the veterinarian 
This is totally her dream job. My little animal lover <3
Mrs. B & Rylee - best teacher ever!
Started Spring Break off with a fun trip to the rodeo! Rylee's favorite time of the year :)
"When I grow up I am going to be a barrel racer in the rodeo!"
First family camping trip! We stayed in a 'shelter' which was a screened in little box with hard bunk beds, outlets, and a fan/light. It was quite the experience but fun! We fished, rode scooters, played at the playground, made a campfire, cooked dinner & smores! The girls loved it except for a few encounters with bugs and the early morning wake up call from the birds chirping. Rylee woke up and said, "Those birds are so annoying!" lol
LOVE this sweet girl and that toothless smile :)
Rylee was sooo excited to bring her Pete the Cat Goes Camping book. She did a great job reading us her bedtime story!
 Ended the week with a fun playdate with cousins!
Lunch with my favorite first grader!
FriYay! :)
 Fun night out watching Dumbo at the theater!
 Fun night out with my favs :)
 Happy Sunday! Church with my pretty girls <3
Neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt :)
Easter Bunny 2019
These cute bunnies had so much fun dying Easter eggs :)
Surprised these pretty princesses with a trip to Disney on Ice! The only thing more magical than the show was watching it through their eyes! <3 These are the days!
Happy Easter!
Easter Bunny came! :)
Her day was made when her classroom chicks hatched and she got to hold one! <3
Rylee's invention project for school - Go Clean Up Go! 
She combined a box of kleenex, trash can (made out of an empty kleenex box), and hand sanitizer (inside an empty kleenex box) to help not spread germs and to solve the problem of going to three different places in a room to find them all. We had fun making it together and she came up with the name. Proud of my smart creative girl!
Fresh haircuts and ready for summer to begin! :)
Mother's Day with my two blessings <3
First day of swim lessons!
What a difference a year makes! A huge improvement in her length of writing, handwriting, punctuation, and drawings. So proud of how far Rylee has come this year in first grade!
First Grade Reading Restraunt
Show Week at TLG! Rylee's 5th and final for a while...gave her the choice and she wants to take horse riding lessons instead :)
Last day of First Grade! #bittersweet but YAY for summer!
Rylee with Mrs. B - so thankful for this amazing teacher! She is the BEST <3
