It is hard for me to beleive that Angela will be 7 on Saturday. She has gotten so tall, with beautiful brown eyes like her Dad. She has a good heart.
We have started the school year a little rough but hope to have her on track very soon. So far, she is doing well on the bus, so that has been a relief. She seems to be happy to be back at school and has made the transition from the old building to the new very well.
We did a family birthday party for Angela on Labor day this year, so everyone but her brother and Grandma Barb was able to be there. Dad did a great job on the food. He did smoked beef, mashed potatos, green bean casserole, home made rolls and mini-birthday cakes with home made whipped cream icing. It was all very good. Thank you Daddy!!
We are going to give it a 3rd try to get to the Cleveland Zoo on Saturday. I am so hoping she has a good day at school today and tomorrow so we can go. It keeps calling for Rain, but I am hoping that will change by Saturday.
She has lost the top 2 front teeth so she looks and talks a little silly, but I think she looks so cute. She has lost a total of 4 teeth over the summer. I do hope that the top teeth do come in a little before picture day. We will see.
Will update soon with the zoo trip and schooll updates.

Today is the First Day of 2nd Grade. I can't beleive it.
The school has moved to Plain Center so they are now part of the Plain Township schools. We were able to go to an open house on Monday August 22nd. I really like the new school and I think it is a great move for the school.
I took Angela today instead of her riding the bus. I know that the days of me taking her the first day will be coming to an end, so I will do it until she asks me not to. They have so much to take in that first day, it is hard for them to handle it all on the bus.
I am so mad at myself because I forgot to take my camera in with me. I will have to get pictures of her outside her room some other time. I can go to the school any time and get pictures with her on the outside.
As usual, She did very well and Mom had a small melt down. We hope to have a super year this year.
I will update more tomorrow with the events of her first day.

It is hard to believe that we are almost into August. Angela starts back to school on August 24th, but her last day is May 31st. She will now be following the Plain Local School Schedule because her school, Portage Collaborative Montessori School, has moved to the old Plain Center school on 55th street. We drove through the parking lot last weekend and it looks like they will have alot more room in this building.
Angela has lost another tooth and is working on losing the top 2 front teeth soon. She has had a busy summer. She went to Ceder Point with her Aunt Pooh, Uncle Phil and cousins Jacey & Justin. It was her first time on large roller coasters. She had a great time and according to Aunt Pooh was a real trooper.
Now that Dad is feeling much better, we have reschduled the trip to the Cleveland zoo on August 15th. I am really looking forward to the trip. We had a great time the first time we went.
This weekend starts off the Hall of Fame celebration. We are going to the Balloon lauch tonight. Not sure if we will be doing much else. I think the best choice is to stay away from the Belden Village area this whole weekend.
Well that is about all the news for now.

Well Angela can now ride a bike without training wheels. On Saturday Daddy and I took her to a big school parking lot and within 10 minutes, she was riding without the training wheels. On Sunday I took her back to the parking lot and worked with her on starting out. She finally did it. Yesterday I took her down to the school parking lot by our house and she rode her bike like a pro. We are so proud of her!!
She also has three new loose teeth. The top 2 front teeth and one on the bottom. She has been working really hard to get them out with no luck so far. We keep telling her they will come out when they are ready.
The only down side to all this is Daddy now has pneumonia. We hope to see a quick recovery. We go back to the doctor tomorrow and see what he says. We hope there is some improvement.
Angela will also be starting 2nd grade in the fall in a new building. They have moved from their North Canton location to a building in Plain Township. She is having a hard time understanding that all the people that were in the old building will be in the new building. It will be an interesting start to the new school year.
That is all for now, but will update again.

Well it is hard to beleive that it is 2011. Alot has happened since April. Angela is now a first grader and seems to be doing well, but still needs to learn time management and that is asking alot of a 6 year old. She has lost her two front bottom teeth. Her first one came out just before her 6th birthday and the other one came out right after Christmas.
Angela is riding the bus to and from school. The morning bus picks her up about 6:40am and then she goes to Aunt Pooh's after school. The aftertnoon bus drops her off about 3:30. She is doing Karate 3 days a week and is now a Yellow tip. She enjoys going to youth group on Wednesdays. Because there are not alot of kids in our neighborhood, I think she likes school and youth group just to be with the kids. Angela is excelling is spelling and she amazes me to see her reading so well. We are driving and she is reading the billboards and signs as we go by. She sounds things out very well. We are so proud of her. She is almost as tall as her mom at 6 years old, so I have a feeling she will be towering over me soon enough.
Daddy has started a new job with the Air Polution Control Division in the Health Department and seems to really enjoy being back to work. We have traded in the PT Woody Cruiser for a Toyota Prius. We have had it a little over a week and I am still getting use to driving it. We are really excited about getting better gas mileage. Not sure, but Daddy is thinking about selling the Jeep and getting a Prius for himself. Time will tell. We both love the jeep but the gas mileage is aweful.
The holiday season was hectic as usual and I am glad to be getting back in a more regular routine.
Scot, Angela's brother moved to North Carolina in November. He has started a new job with Burger King and is working on getting his Diploma. He seems to be very happy there. We do miss him though.
I am almost done for the day, so I will write again soon. I promise.
