We had a pretty crazy week! Monday, Jaxson started his ECFE class with Nishad. He was a little shy at first, but he definitely made up for that! Towards the end of class as the teacher was trying to wrap up I hear Jaxson say to Nishad "Hey do you want to see my spiderman underwear?" Before I could even react his pants were at his knees! I could just hear all the moms and girls just chuckling. That is Jaxson for you:)! The class is pretty cute a lot of jumping around and they did the hokie pokie and the chicken dance along with a little ballet and jazz. It was cute to see all the little girls in their leotards and Jaxson and Nishad the crazy boys in the class. We figure the best football players take ballet to get their twinkle toes so why not expose Jaxson to it now. It will be so fun when Vada is old enough to be in dance! On Wednesday I went to Disability Day at the Capital. We learned a lot about the possible cuts human services may receive as Minnesota tries to recover from the $935 million dollar deficit. These cuts would directly impact the families and staff that I work with. I also met with Senator Amy Koch to talk with her about what the cuts means for the people that are receiving services and also those who provide it. I also talked with her about issues that we are having in our school district. She was very receptive to everything. It will be very interesting to see what happens in the coming months. This weekend my first official Park and Rec Event since being elected in January. Everything went very smoothly. The Easter Bunny was there, Tinsy the Clown, face painting and an Easter egg bunny. Jaxson had a really good time. We thought for sure that he would be afraid of the Easter Bunny, but he was wasn't at all which was pretty exciting! Then Saturday night Jaxson went to a sleepover at Grandma and Grandpa's with Kylie, Braic and Trenton. He had so much fun. He watched the Bee Movie and played pirates with his cousins. I am sure that it was pretty entertaining! Abby, one of the tellers at Presten's work, watched Vada for us and we went out for dinner. This was the first time since last January that Presten and I went out just the two of us. We went to McCoy's in St. Louis Park. It was really great food. We made it an early night so when we got home we were still able to watch a movie. We all had a really great weekend! Now if Vada will just poop! She seems to be a bit uncomfortable today, but I am sure it will still be another couple days before she does. Poor girl:( We are looking forward to heading to Rochester next weekend for Easter. We hope that everyone has a wonderful week!
Working to live a life guided by faith, filled with love and overflowing with happiness.
