I'm a ballerina

Yep enrolled Fi in a Ballet / Tap dance class. Boy howdy she loves it. I put her in a 3-4 year old class, since I was worried that if she went into a 4-5 year old class she would be behind, since she has never taken one before. I just have to say... she is the cutest thing ever in her ballerina costume.

Sorry Pictures aren't great - windows are one way reflective so parents can see them.

Summer fun

I haven't really posted a lot this summer, sorry about that. So I got Fi a sprinkler that spins and shoots water every which way, she loves it. I played in it too. Kendal and Fi played a bit in it also but unfortunately the water pressure wasn't very good at Donna's so it didn't shoot as high as it can. But they had fun.

Bed Time

I do not understand how, why or what, but bedtime has gotten so SOOOO much easier in the last few weeks.  We decided that our current sleeping arrangement wasn't working anymore. Fiona is just getting too big to be in bed with us. Mike just finally started sleeping on the couch, poor guy. So we made the decision to drag out her toddler bed mattress. We set it in the corner surrounded by some of her favorite stuffed toys and pillows. So now she does really well. We would lay with her (on the floor - not so comfortable, just sayin') until she went to sleep. That is until one glorious night when I had to run to the bathroom, when I got back (seriously it was only a couple of minutes) she was asleep. Well we heard angels singing a glorious tune... we no longer have to sit with her until she falls asleep. Now bedtime consists of reading a book, saying a prayer, a small sip of water, singing a song then hugs and kisses and we go out. She will even go to the bathroom by herself in the middle of the night without waking us or anything, since we got the nightlight for the bathroom anyways. Sniff when did my sweet little baby grow up so much???
I now have so much time before bed, I have no idea what to do with myself...
