Not Gonna Lie....Day 16, and 18

-
ok peeps, I'm not gonna lie....30 pics in 30 days...super hard.  So Monday, no biggie teacher workday, I'm home early, plenty of time for pics.  Tuesday, basketball game.... do to the gym, dinner, I leave and don't get home until 9:15 so no time for pictures.   Doing a picture a day is HARD!!!!  Who knew.   I missed a day.....shoot me.  For me, I'm gonna say oh well, I have so many days that I got more than one pic that I love for my album (that I'm planning to put together) so I'm good buttttttttttt..... for the project I feel horrible.  I want to be able to post each day but with our schedule now... not gonna happen.   Anyway....not gonna lie...we skipped a day.

Otherwise...just a few things.....

Rheagan--I realized today that she has my eye for things  that are "picture perfect".  On the way to school this morning she says to me   "mom, that is so pretty"
me: "what Rhea"
rhea: "look over there, that bridge and the sun"
(it was a train trellis bridge over a river, the sun coming up)
me: "what do you mean"
Rhea: "mommy, its so pretty like a picture you could take"

I already realize my girl has an eye for photography.   For  5 years old she already pays attention to detail. I love that about her.  What 5 year old does that???

Ryane:  Her language has expolded the last 2 weeks.  Aside from, thank you, please, excuse me, and all the usuals.... My girls is saying anything she can repeat.  One other new thing..... she loves to brush her own teeth.  She is getting too big toooooooo fast.

Me:  I love them so much it hurts....For me, I need an adult outlet---my job.  For them,  I wish I could stay home 24/7.    When Rhea says, mommy I'm gonna miss you so much today,   my heart breaks.  But I know, for me I know that we both need our time.   I want to raise strong, independant, caring, smart girls that can strive and achieve things on their own.   I'm sure  I'm not the only mom that has ever second guessed my decisions about raising my kids, but I'm hoping that my decisions are the right ones. I try for.....   As much home time as I can give them,  as much as parent interaction as we can do,  as many times as we can help them make good choices....  Being a parent is tough, being a mom to girls is even harder......  I want my girls to love me, care about my opinion,  confide in me, need me and know that I trust them....how do I get there from here.  Any advice you have is always needed...

Lastly....pictures from 16, and 18....no picture on 17 (i'm not gonna lie remember)

16... typical night at the schneider house.   The Mr. gives the girls a bath every night.  Gives me sometime to do my thing.   This night I caught them brushing hair and getting ready for one more story.


Night 18....Ryane loves shoes...Here is my girl playing with Mommy's heels....
Love these girls more than life......

Now I'm gonna watch American Idol.....Season Premiere--whoooo hooooo!!!

    Jonathan does G's bath every night too. It's a nice break for me. Although, he refuses to brush her hair and just uses a towel to dry it and then leaves it messy...he says he likes it better messy.

To my sweet baby girl--can't believe you just turned 6. Where have these 6 years gone.   I look at you and I can’t believe what a an amazing kid you have become.  You seem so small at times and then you speak and the whole world turns to listen to what my little “big girl” has to say.  You are AMAZING.   You are so smart.  You have learned so much this year.   You can tie your shoes, you love gymnastics, you can read, you have been tested into the GT program at school, your teachers love you, your friends love you, and you are a great student.   We are so proud. I love how you pay attention to every little detail of everything.   You never cease to amaze me at how much you know about “everything”.     I love how good you are at gymnastics---You are just built for it.    You are strong and your coaches just can’t get enough of you.    I love how you always want yo...

In January last year I started a photo project called For the Love.....30 days of photos, 1 photo each day, all black and white.     I love all of the images I got and promised myself I would do them every January, every year.   I actually had an album made from last year's images.   I LOVE IT....  This January, I started out on my FTL project but only got about 4 days in before I decided it wasn't going to work....We had so much rain in January and in February that I had a really hard time getting images.   Plus, with daylight savings time and cloudy skies in the afternoon I had no chance of getting any good light for pictures once I got home from work.    So this year I am changing up my FTL project a little.   I am going to wait and start this project in June---when I am home and can really spend some time on it.  I think I will also mix in some color images.....haven't decided yet....guess we will see in June. Soooo, instead I...

So it's Thursday..... 1.Guess where I'm going tonight.......BRING IT ON!!!!!  I am so excited, Bring it on the Musical is at the Hobby Center and I'VE GOT TICKETS!   I know it's cheesy but for 1,  I love going to the theater, and 2,  I love anything and everything cheerleading---brings me back to my childhood!   2.  I am so sick of this rain---this gloomy weather makes me want to stay in bed.  I'm ready to see the sun--I've got Spring Fever.   I can't wait for warm weather, the beach, vacations, and spending time with the family.  Every year we vacation to the New Braunsfels with the inlaws, to Livingston with my parents, to the Ranch in Segno and then we plan our vacation--kid vacation, adult vacation we trade off every other summer.   This summer is an adult vacation---the kids are going with the grandparents and we are hitting a beach somewhere---I can't wait.  **although a little part of me is gonna miss disney world. ...
