Alyssa's best friend in the whole wide world is Ashley. The two girls have known each other since they were infants together at KinderCare. Alyssa went to Ashley's birthday party at Little Gym in December, and had an absolutely blast. Since then, Katie and I have been talking about getting her into gymnastics. Cindy, our neighbor, suggested Cypress Academy, as her son Jack goes there. Last Thursday, the Hoys went to gym class. Jackson and I went to a Mommy and Me session. He's definitely too young; he didn't want to sit still when requested and didn't want to climb and play when allowed. We may try again in six months or a year. Alyssa on the other hand loved it! She hasn't stopped talking about going back. So starting next week, Katie's taking Alyssa to gymnastics every Wednesday at 4:15.
Back to Ashley for second. Ashley and her sister, Amber, left daycare a few months ago. Alyssa continued to talk about Ashley for a long time. So we had Ashley over for a playdate with Alyssa a couple of Saturdays ago. The girls had a blast! We learned an important lesson: despite their excitement over seeing each other again, Ashley and Alyssa got tired and cranky in the fourth hour. Ashley cried on the way home and Alyssa continues to talk about going to Ashley's house. Needless to say, the girls are looking forward to their next playdate. Katie is very excited that her toddler Alyssa was becoming a big girl.
Last Saturday, I took Jackson to get a haircut at Sports Clips. We won't be going back. It's my fault really; I left despite not being satisfied. His hair was quite long when we got there and slightly less long when we left. So this Friday, the Hoys went to see Orlando, who's used to cut my hair, has given Jackson every other haircut, and has cut Alyssa's bangs on numerous occations. Jackson had a bad hair cut there so we tried Sports Clips. Anyway, really long way to get to this, but Orlando did a spectacular job and Jackson's hair looks great.
Friday evening, after our haircuts (Alyssa got her bangs cut too) and a quick meal for the kids at McD's, Ryan and Natalie Hensley stopped in Cypress for dinner on their way to Ryan's folks home in The Woodlands to celebrate a belated Christmas. Katie served chili and corn bread from Women's Bean Project. Dessert was thawed leftover cake from Alyssa's birthday. Yum! Friends and food for three hours; our wonderful evening of catching up was far too short.
Plenty of goings on today, but I'll wait to post all of that tomorrow to avoid splitting the day.
Enjoy your wknd!
