Letter to Daddy on day one of his time at a Conference!

Dear Daddy~
Since you have been gone today mommy let us dance in the bath together and eat ice cream. We went to the store. Colored pictures and even fell asleep while eating dinner. We watched a movie and cuddled with mommy at bedtime till we fell asleep. In short daddy, it has been a rotten day. Please come home soon. I miss my music that you play on your palm pilot to lull me to sleep. Oh and Baby boy says that it is not fair that mommy would not let him have any ice cream too.

Hugs and kisses,

Your Baby Boy and Little Girl

P.S. We hope you're having a good time and are safe while you are at your conference. :0)

Dance Lessons

I had found a dance studio close by that has dance lessons for a reasonable price that I could not pass it up. My daughter loves dancing so much that I figured it would be a great way for her to learn about something that she loves. The first 3 pictures are from the night that we got her dance clothes and shoes. The rest are from the day of her first dance lesson.

I love this picture!

We put on her ballet shoes and she was instantly on her toes and leaping as if she knew exactly how to be a ballerina. She looks so excited in this picture!

Here she is trying out her tap shoes.
Trying to stretch her legs.
The teacher helps each of the girls stretch their legs up high.

Here they partnered up. She had a little trouble curtsying. But I think she's cute.

Here she is learning the movements for a dance in her tap shoes.

Feeding the Ducks

I recently learned that there are ducks at the local pond. When we checked this place out before we didn't look too hard, so we really didn't think there were any. However we were wrong. Well last night my husband had to work until 10 PM for end of month stuff. I figured that I wanted to do something fun with my kids for our little FHE. So I filled a Ziploc bag with broken up pieces of bread and we headed to the pond. Here are the pictures I took with my mobile phone camera.

Getting ready to throw some food. This girl has an arm.

This is how close they got. I don't know the other girl. There was another family there feeding the birds as well.
My Kids!
This is what I saw as I was getting in the car after putting the stroller in the trunk.
