My Ballerina

Kate started ballet this week. I was hesitant for her to try this sport because she's never expressed an interest in ballet, and she is still pretty young for an "organized" class. But she surprised me, she did great. She followed the instructions of her ballet teacher, doing all the exercises. She was clearly the youngest ballerina in her class, but not the worst! One little girl was off in her own planet the entire time.

She's doing her stretches with the rest of the class (she is all the way to the left, the girl all the way to the right was the little stinker in the class)

At the end of class she let me take a picture





This weekend we met up with some 'virtual friends' for dinner, I'm on a message board of October 2006 mom's and we all have really gotten to know each other really well over the years. This mom is from Georgia and is vising this week in our area because they are relocating here in a few months. It's fun to meet up with these mom's, I consider them all such good friends even though I haven't met most of them.

Halloweenie

For Halloween we ended up at our friends the Coleman's house for a Halloween party. We took the girls trick or treating around the neighborhood. Kate was just as cute as ever marching up to the door by herself while we stood on the sidewalk. She was so cute, thanking everyone for her treat, and if she saw a lollipop in the mix, she always asked nicely for it. She loves lollipops! Here are some pictures from our Halloween this year.





I love my bumble bee and flower

Brock worked very hard on this pumpkin


TUTU cute

It's fun to have girls, you can dress them up and do girlie things with them like these pictures. My friend gave me this idea.

Both girls were exactly 5 months when I took these.
