MiMi the Artist

During COVID-19, while some of us have been a little less than productive,  the MiMi has been practicing and perfecting her God-given gifts.  She painted this landscape from memory on a sunny Saturday afternoon while visiting family.   Move over Michelangelo!

Looky what I found!

MiMi's First Week of School

I was looking through the archives and ran across these pictures of Mila's first week of school.  I picked her up.  I cannot believe she's almost 12 now!

Get It Guuuuuuuurl!

Over the weekend, we attended Spring Fest and Mila displayed her superior hula hoping skills.

(This was originally from April 23, 2014...why I never posted it, I have no idea.)

Big Sis MiMi

You guys it's official: there's another little Gaston in the bunch!

Say hello to The Jader's little sister, Nia Renae Gaston, born 8/24/19 at 5:42 AM at a whopping 5 lbs 15 oz and 18 inches!

It's Official: We Have a Sixth Grader 😭

Is it illegal to tie bricks to kid's heads so they don't grow up?  Asking for a friend.

Almost Back to School

Believe it or not, the kiddos are headed back to school in a few weeks which means we only have a short amount of time left for back to school shopping.  Mila will be a 6th grader this year (I know; try to contain your tears) and this is the latest and greatest from our MiMi Jader.

Oh, and we have exciting news to come VERY SOON!

Teefs

So....I shouldn't be worried that Mila just yanked a tooth out of her mouth like a G right before bed?  She's 10.  That's still normal...right?

Just Because

When you're this pretty, sometimes you just gotta show it off. 😍

Long Hair Don't Care!

Well guys we've got ourselves a pre-teen.  Nana thought it would be cool to straighten the Jader's curls.  What we didn't know is that we had a Barbie doll hair factory right underneath our noses all this time!  Can we make money off of that?  😂😂

See...Barbie doll hair factory.  Side note: we find her hair EVERYWHERE!
