Kendra's 1st cheer competition!

Talk about a big week! Kendra had her very 1st cheerleading competition yesterday. She was up and ready to go about 2 hours before we needed to leave. She was so excited she kept announcing herself- "And NOW the Cheetahs from CCE!" then would go through her whole routine. This happened about 30 times! Before we left she wanted to make sure I saved the routine on the TV so she could see it when she got home. She thought it would be televised!

We finally get to the competition downtown and Kendra was very confused why there wasn't popcorn being sold... probably because she usually comes to high school state and there's always popcorn there. She practiced about 65 cartwheels while we waited for her coaches to arrive.

And finally- they announced her team and Kendra came running out with a HUGE smile on her face! She had a wonderful performance and had a blast! After awards Kendra told everyone- we won! (Second place but she got a ribbon so she was excited!)

I'M GOING TO BE A BIG SISTER!

We told Kendra this past weekend she was going to get to be a BIG sister! At first she was very curious about this whole process....

"Where is the baby?" .... "In mommy's tummy" .... Kendra comes and taps on my tummy and says "Hi!" then after thinking intensly for a few minutes says, "mommy open your mouth I think the baby can hear me better that way!" =)

"Mommy- did the baby get in there today? How did the baby get in your belly?"

"Mommy will the baby fall out when you go to the bathroom?"

"How long does it take for the baby to get out?"

"Can you still rock out with a baby in your belly Mama?"

"My friends at school aren't as excited about me being a BIG sister like I am.... but Mrs. Huntzinger is!"

"I am going to read books with the baby and teach it how to dance and wrestle. But I am not doing any diapers!"
