Jade is still just a VERY sweet, quiet and loving girl. The first word everybody uses to describe her is sweet.
She is in 3rd grade and wavers back and forth with either loving it or wanting to be home schooled, but if I try to say anything different than what Miss. Green has said I am informed that I am wrong. So I just keep telling jade that it's best she go to school everyday.
Jade still starts pretty much every sentence with "It's sad....." whether it is actually sad or not. She loves to be with me and I love having her with me, She is a Wonderful helper and very good with Gemma. Although pretty much every chore is her "worst favorite".
She is in gymnastics and loves it.
If it was up to Jade she would only have to go to school 4 days a week, she believes in the 3 day weekend theory.
Jade also loves movies. Her favorite foods are still Cheese & Cereal.
She likes make-up, lotion, pampering and she likes to give pedicures, I get the most benefit from that :-)

Gemma at 3
Gemma at 3 is such fun, I enjoy her very much and our days together. She has discovered Dora and Diego, likes the shows very much, of course she has always loved her movies. The other day I spent a Very loooong time figuring out which show she wanted, I record the Go, Diego,Go shows for her and she wanted to watch "Pixie Mmarkasot" Now tell me you know what that is.... after much discussing she finally said "you know mom the smallest monkey's in the jungle" she wanted to watch the episode with the pygmy marmosets! Crisis averted LOL
She is still in her Princess stage in that she only wears dresses, and only certain dresses at that. I was lucky to find that Costco has some beautiful tea-length Easter/Spring dresses right now and they clean up and wash better than the traditional Princess dress-up dresses but still have the Princess quality in that they are pink, have tulle, bows and flowers.
She cracks me up all day long... Lately she has begun hitting and while that is NOT OK.... this is a usual conversation:
Gemma: Mommy Jade hit me!
Me: I sure hope not... Jade did you hit Gemma?
Jade: She hit me first*tears*
Me: Jade don't hit. Gemma did you hit Jade?
Gemma: Not on the arm *tears*
Me: What?
Gemma: I hit jade on the head she hit me on the arm *howling now*
Me: (trying not to laugh) Gemma don't hit... Jade don't hit.
There is also a "blue triangle Rawr, with sharp teeth and a tail" living in Gemma's room. This is what she tells me when she is crawling into bed with me every night, presumably so that I won't put her back in her bed.
Another conversation with Gemma:
background We were at Costco with Grandma Rory....
Rory: Gemma would you wear this? (Holding up a very cute pant and jacket set)
Gemma: I think I shouldn't .
needless to say there is no point in purchasing said outfit after that answer.
She calls our house her "castle" and loves to feed her birds (wild ones)
We recently signed up for netflix
Me: Gemma let's go get the mail.
Gemma:OK
Me: Look sweetie there is a movie
Gemma: A movie? Where did it come from?
Me: The mailman brought it.
Gemma: HE did(awed wonder) In the mailbox?
She askes everyone "How much olders are you" Which means how old are you. And she requires an actual number.
If you ask her what color her hair is she tells you"my hair is gold"
She hates having her hair combed but loves braids and to have her hair fixed, go figure :-) She likes to have control over the T.V. and if it's on anything other than what she picked she says "Not channel 13! "
She is willing to try pretty much any food, her favorites are jelly toast, spaghettio's broccoli, corn, peas and shaghetti., oh and doughnuts. She is a great eater! She is very bossy and opinionated, yet so very sweet and loveable. She loves to help me do everything but especially cook and laundry.

Happy Birthday Jade
Jade's 9th Birthday!!
Jade still has a ton of hair.
She has always been a sweetheart, and quiet.
She decided she wanted to get her ears pierced for her birthday and go to lunch at her favorite resturant "Olive Garden"

I took her to this darling cake shop in American Fork called Dippidee and this was the cake she picked out, and then i added a bunch of mini cupcakes to complete.
