"GIRLS DON'T PLAY SPORTS" (Lainey)

Lainey is so full of life and so pretty. Such a fun and cute person. I don't know a better word to describe Lainey than... GIRLY! Ever since she was a baby we put every kind of ball there was in her hand. We are very sports oriented around these parts, and we figured she would be tall, so we thought it would be the perfect combo. All I have to say about that is, BOY DID THAT BACKFIRE!!!
Lainey is bound and determined to be a cheerleader. If you ask her what she wants to be she will tell you a CHEERLEADER. She knows which outfit looks "JUST PERFECT" and which hair-do is PRETTIEST, and most of all what things are "TOTALLY HIDEOUS". We don't waste time on things that aren't quite up to par!!!

GO BULLDOGS. NUMBER ONE!!! (don't worry, Lainey makes sure to tell the bulldog just what kind of pose she wants in her picture)

THIS IS WHAT CHEERLEADERS DO, RIGHT?!!?

I GUESS WE WERE AT LEAST RIGHT ABOUT THE TALL PART!

AT THIS POINT JIM AND I HAVE DECIDED WE AREN'T GOING TO CHANGE HER MIND, SO WE WILL SEE IF SHE DOES SOMEDAY! UNTIL THEN WE LOOK FORWARD TO MANY MORE PROVO HIGH CHEER CAMPS AND A SPECIAL BIRTHDAY PARTY IN FEBRUARY COMPLETE WITH PROVO HIGH CHEERLEADERS AND ALL THINGS CHEER!!!

WE HOPE THE PROVO HIGH MEN'S BASKETBALL TEAM TAKES STATE AGAIN THIS YEAR FOR 3 IN A ROW. THEN WE WILL ALL BE CHEERLEADERS! LAINEY IS 3RD FROM THE LEFT. When Lainey was 2 1/2 she won a dance off at half time with all of the moves the cheerleaders had taught her. She wasn't shy then, and even less now. We can't wait to see what the future holds!
