Rhiannon didn’t place in the pageant but I know she was the prettiest one up there. Yes, I know, I’m just a little biased LOL. Her little escort was cute too. He actually placed but there were only around 6 boys. There were around 20 girls.
But the good thing is, it didn’t bother Rhiannon one bit that she didn’t place. So as long as it doesn’t bother her, it shouldn’t bother me….yeah right! I’m just competitive by nature but she’s not at all. I could never be one of those pageant moms you see on tv. For one I wouldn’t want to spend that kind of money and 2, I would get mad every time she didn’t win. So I think we’ll just stick to the elementary school pageant.
But anyway, I posted some pics on my

And I officially feel old…Jake turns 13 today. It seems just like yesterday that he was toddling around getting into stuff. Now he’s talking about wanting to drive. That’s still a few years away though because he has to be at least 15 to get a permit and 16 to get a license. He’s having a party here next weekend. We would have had it this weekend, but Rhiannon’s pageant (the one at the school that she is in every year) is today. Jake doesn’t mind as long as he gets his birthday present. This year my sisters and Will and I went in together and got him an Ipod with the touch screen. I got one for Valentine’s Day from Will and after Jake saw it, he wanted one. Ever since we’ve hinted that’s what we got him, he has been bugging us for it. So last night, we went over to my sisters’ and he just knew he was going to get his ipod. Courtney told me that she wanted to keep it overnight so she could charge it and add some songs to it. But since he had been bugging us about it, she decided it would be funny to give him a gift bag full of socks and underwear. He just knew he was going to get his Ipod last night but when he saw what was in the bag, he was so mad.He pouted all the way home! LOL. I did finally tell him that yes, he was getting an Ipod so stop being a big baby.
Back to Rhiannon’s pageant…She has an escort this year, we’ll call him J. He’s her little “boyfriend”. But they’re only 9 so it’s not like they get to go out lol. But everyday when she comes in it’s “J. this” or “J. that”. I talk to his mom on facebook and she says that J. is the same way about her lol. It’s cute really. I am not really expecting Rhiannon to win. She is always one of the cutest girls up there (yes, maybe I’m a little biased) but this is a school pageant so it’s usually teachers kids who win. I’m not just saying that because Rhiannon doesn’t win. But Rhiannon has been in the pageant for the past 3 years and every year,a teacher’s child has one in her division and other divisions as well. It doesn’t bother Rhiannon that much to not win, so I try not to let it bother me either.
I am going to take some pictures of Rhiannon at the pageant but I’m not going to post them on here. I will post them on the facebook that I have affliated with my blog though. If you want to add me on facebook please feel free to do so, just let me know that you saw the link on my blog :) . Here’s the link to my facebook .
Ok, well I need to get off the computer so I can wash clothes and get ready for the pageant!
