Alot of exciting things have happened.

Well alot has happened since I last updated my blog. Last time I had wrote we had just celebrated Jadyns 5th Birthday. Well since then we had Pre-school graduation for both the girls. Very bitter sweet since Jadyn was really graduating from The Family Co-op Learning Center and Kaya still goes for 1 more year in the Pre-k program. They both have boyfriends that they met in school Kayas boyfriend is Pauly and he has been battling Lueikemia for the past 3 or so years but is doing really well and Jadyns boyfriend is Tyler he has a twin named Hayden. Kaya tells me everyday that she is going to marry Pauly I just hope that we are able to keep in touch since he is going into Kindergarten in September and lives in Palmyra instead of Cinnaminson so they wont be in the same school next year or even when Kaya gets into Kindergarten. Jadyn did have to take her Kindergarten screening test, she did not do so well only scored a 29 so she had to go back and be retested with the Child Study Team. They said she is above average on almost every thing but is having trouble with her letter,numbers and shapes so each day for about 15-20 minutes I have been practicing with her to get her ready. She is so excited and got a new "Justice" book bag for school. We also got to celebrate Jadyns "friend Birthday Party" where we invite her friends over to celebrate her Birthday the coolest part about it was that their Aunt Emily,Uncle Chris,Aleigha,Brenton and little Kenli were here to celebrate with her. They both had dentist appointments just recently. This was Jadyns 5th or 6th trip there. They said her teeth look great but her bottom 2 teeth in the front are starting to become loose so that means in the next couple of months the tooth fairy will be visiting us. Kaya did so good like an old pro. They said her teeth look great as well. (We are very adamant about their brushing). Last week was our favorite Carnival around Saint Charles Carnival.We buy tickets prior to the carnival so they are half price. We got to go 2 night. They had fun as usual and got to see some friends from school. The second night we went they got to see our friends Melissa,Fran Buggy Alyssa and Daniel so it was alot of fun. This weekend coming up Grandma and Grandpa Thornburgh are coming for a long visit. We will go see the fireworks in Maple Shade while they are here. We also found out that Set and his son Ben are going to be flying into Philadelphia Airport on July 4th. We are so excited that Kaya will finally meat 1 of her many Uncles and 1 of her many cousins that she has not met yet.One last note I finally broke down and let the girls get their hair cut, in 5 years and in 3 years I never cut my girls hair but Jadyn wanted a short haircut"bob" and Kaya wanted the same but they sure do look cute. Well that is all for now. I hope you enjoyed the pictures and Have a happy 4th of July. Hope to see some of you over the summer and to you that are expecting we wish you a fast delivery and cant wait to see pictures of our new family members. Love to you all.

Some recent pictures of Jadyn and Kaya

This past week Jadyn and Kaya got to go to 2 SWEET 16 BIRTHDAY PARTYS The first one was for their cousin Amber and the second one was for a friend Ashlee. The girls looked so grown up that I was so excited to post these pictures. If you havent seen the girls in a while you will see how grown up they have gotten. Enjoy the pictures.

Quick catch up

It has been a very long time since I have wrote anything. I thought it was about time to catch you guys up with all that has been going on with the girls.

Kaya is growing with leaps and bounds. She is now 3 and a half and is becoming such a big girl.She had given up her binki and bottle when she turned 3 and never really had a problem without it. She is 99% potty trained just needs a pull up at night. She is doing really great in school (even though she is the youngest in the class). She really enjoys playing with her dolls and has now decieded that her favorite color is orange. She is such a joy and she is my special little buddy.

Jadyn is turning into such a little lady. She is now obsessed with Justin Beiber and loves all the pop music especially Katey Perrys Firework. She sits in the car and sings all the way to where ever we are going. She has a "Justin" poster over her bed and a few shirts. She wants everything Justin for her birthday. She is doing great in school and her teachers say that she will be ready for kindergarten in Sept. We go to register her for kindergarten tomorrow night. She is just so amazing.

The big news about both the girls is that they both got "BIG GIRL" beds. It has made them sleeping in their room alot better they both sleep all night thru in their room for the most part now. What a relief.

Well that is all in a nutshell. I hope you enjoyed the post and pictures. We miss all of our far away family and think about you guys often.

Just a little of what has been going on

Well there is not too much to post but I figured it has been too long. Some things that have been going on are Kaya is about to turn 3 on September 19th. I can't believe she will be that old already. Wow has time flown by. She will be giving up the bottle and she will be starting Pre-school. She will be going with Jadyn and she is so looking forward to it.
Jadyn is excited to go back to school and see her teachers. Not much is going on with her. She is just growing like a weed. She is 4 and a half but I swear she thinks she is 16.
Tom just went to Pensacola FL. His brother just got married and it was the first time that they were all able to be together in many years. The girls and I weren't able to attend due to money. We were all sad not to be able to see everyone. Some of them have never meet Kaya or have seen Jadyn in 3 years. We are just so glad Daddy was able to go and have a nice time.
Now for me I am now working. I am working in the deli at Shop Rite here in Cinnaminson. I am working at night from 7 or 8 to midnight. It has been tough to be away from my family but it has been good at the same time. I am working to help with the bills and to pay for the girls to go to school. It will get easier as I get use to working.
That is about all that is going on here in NJ. We miss all of our family and hope to have some visits soon.

Happy Eater!!!!

There is not much new since the last post.I wanted to post some pictures of the girls the day before Easter. Aunt Kathy sent the girls Easter Dresses so we took them to Strawbridge Lake to get some Spring like pictures.I think they came out so good. There is also a couple from Jadyns Spring program. The easter Bunny came and had a visit, I hope you enjoy the pictures like I enjoyed taking them.

Ok well a lot has happened since the last time I posted anything.A week or so ago Mom and Dad Thornburgh came to visit and with our surprise Aleigha came too. Jadyn and Kaya loved having their cousin here. Jadyn was very happy and spent all the time with Aleigha. Grandma and Grandpa took Jadyn,Kaya and Aleigha too the playground and then we went and had pizza then they took them to Friendlys for ice cream. They left on Friday but before they left we went and got balloons and met Grandma at Jeremys grave. We released balloons,sang I am a Child of God and Grandma placed flowers on the head stone. We then celebrated Jadyns birthday at the cemetary. Aleigha gave Jadyn a coloring book,Aunt Molly gave Jadyn a princess necklace that lights up and Grandma and Grandpa gave Jadyn a barbie. We were sad to see them leave.
On Sat March 27th we went to Johnsons Farm to see the Easter Bunny and egg hunt. We met our friends there Michele,Rick,Ricky,Cheyanne and Olivia. Jadyn and Olivia got very friendly really quick. We took the hayride and went hunting for some eggs. The kids had to find 5 eggs 1 of each color. After they found the eggs they got to trade them in for a treat bag. We then went in and saw the Easter Bunny. It was a lot of fun. Jadyn then was asked to sleep over Olivias house for the night. This was a first for Jadyn I just hope that she is being very good and can deal with no bottle tonight or tomorrow. Keep your fingers crossed.
A few other odds and ends that have been going on. Jadyn was able to bring her school mascot home 2xs in 1 month. His name is Owilver. He is a owl and the kids really love to get picked to get him for the night. Jadyn will be turning 4 in a few weeks and man I cant believe how fast time goes. The BIG news is that we are finally moving. We will be moving right across the street into a 2 bedroom house. The kitchen has been ripped out and a new one is going in also the bathroom will be completely redone and new carpets in both bedrooms. Life after 4 years in a 1 bedroom has been tough. I look forward to a bedroom of my own with a door,a bathroom that locks,a kitchen to eat in and a fenced in backyard. Wow it will be great.
Well that about wraps it up. I hope you enjoy the pictures.

Well its's been awhile since I updated the blog. Not much new is going on. Jadyn is eating really well, I think she maybe going thru a growth spurt. She is so big. Kaya can count now and in Spanish. (Thanks to Dora). Both girls are registered for school in September. They will attend the afternoon session and be in the same class together.I uploaded some random pictures of the girls. I hope you enjoy them

ON ANOTHER NOTE:
My sister in law had introduced me to a story of a little girl who is 2 years old and losing her battle with cancer. I have totally fell in love with this sweet little girl. Tom even asks me each day about her. If you havent checked out her story at laylagrace.org
