Ballerina Girls

I have always loved the song Ballerina Girl!



 I sing it every time I take the girls to dance. I think dance is such a great way to teach children Grace and Elegance. I love watching them as they practice and learn. I soak up every minute of it. I attended almost every practice and soaked in every rehearsal. ( I did have a baby so Greg had the honors for a few weeks) They are just beautiful to me. Sabrina took Rhythmic Gymanstics & Ballet and Clara took PreDance.

Katherine at 2 Months

Katherine is 2 months and 2 weeks old. At her well check she was a whopping 11 pounds 13 ounces and 22 inches tall. She is just growing like a weed. Chunky thighs and all!  

 The shots did not make her happy (of course) she came home and slept and slept and slept. It was the only way she was happy!  She likes to sleep without the shots...it just intensified the sleeping action.

 We love our Katherine! She is always full of smiles and occasionally giggles. She is so excited to meet her grandparents which by the time this posts she will have met all of you! Yay for a professors job in the summer!

Happy Birthday Greg!

We celebrated Greg's Birthday a week early but I decided to post it today...on  his birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY HANDSOME! You are the greatest man in the world and deserve a wonderful birthday!

The cake was yummilicious. A combination of White Chocolate, Dark Chocolate and Ganache. Yummy.

 

The party was a fabulous!

Sabrina made the wrapping paper. 

Greg LOVED his bike. (thankfully) Not sure if a wife should pick out a bike...but he seems to like it!

Poor Sabrina was so sick on Friday...so most of the celebration was on my bed.

Thank goodness Greg's candles didn't light the bed on fire...you know you are old when you cannot see the man blowing the candles out due to all the smoke :)

Happy Birthday Handsome! May your 33 year be wonderful!

Look at those little fish

Wiley pond is a great place to take the kids out fishing. We've been there several times and have always caught something. Jake has become quite a casting and reeling expert. His Spiderman rod (with a fake rubber fish on the end, we don't really want him to have a real hook for safety reasons yet) is the perfect  outlet for his need for throwing and bringing back in things. The girls didn't catch much so they lost some interest until Clara caught a fish. These fish are tiny but the girls don't care, its just fun to get them. At first only Clara caught a few, so sabrina felt sad (notice the last picture). But she finally caught one too!

I love my baby sister

Jacob is a good big brother. If only we could get him to hold up Katherine's head things would be great!

Fishin' with Jake

We Made a Kite

The kids helped me color it but it turned out kind of freaky. It still needs some adjustments before it will fly but it was a fun project!
