Crazy Life

SO, I'm not sure how it is that I never understood what people were talking about, "it flies right by", but then all of a sudden, I feel like things are slipping by in winks. I think perhaps having one baby or another, and being pregnant off and on for what, the past six years, was so much work it never felt like it was going to end ;) And now, the cute moments, the funny things they say, happen left and right, and who could ever remember them all? And life is so on the go, who has time to pull out a camera, to even attempt to catch it on film? Sigh.... 


 This is proof that Lia was actually in the ballet class, for a few minutes at least ;) We thought she was ready. She had done a gymnastics class, with no problem, and there I was through the glass door watching, but when the tear factory turned on, my heart hurt, and I waved for her to come see me. And, she never went back. Not that day, not the next week, though we tried many things each time. And with all the "practicing" at home, and the excitement expressed, you would have thought for sure... Sigh...there's always next session...

 Here's Ellie on "black-out" day (as cute as I could get her, having to wear all black!) And, her class lining up to come out for dismissal...

 (Had to include this awkward pose...Ellie, the natural poser (and who is usually pretty good at it!) needs to work on this one! :)
 Daddy was thoughtful and planned mommy's birthday to include spending time at a resort's water park as a family...it really was relaxing. Lia was a maniac on the lazy man river- I think her record was two hours! Round and round....The girls all had a blast.

And this little stinker... figured out how to separate oreos and lick out the center ;) She's walking a lot now, reaching out for good spots to hand hold along the way, but is adorable to watch, a little wobbly, darling baby legs taking solid, determined steps. Gosh darn I could eat this one up...
