Dance performance

They were so happy to finally get up on that stage and show their stuff.

We don't have very many pictures of us all together. Go figure...the cobbler's kids have no shoes. They loved their roses and Megan especially was so pleased to receive flowers after watching so many other cousins in the past get flowers for their performances. It's part of the night for her expectations, so I am glad I didn't drop the ball on that one.

Dress rehearsal

Posing for me in what they think is a ballet pose. They loved getting all dressed up and beautiful.

Me too!

He really wants to do everything the girls do and thought he was a part of this class. He usually cried when I wouldn't let him stay to watch the girls. At their last regular class we stayed to take pictures and he was right in there (top photo). After every class he would join the line for hand stamps (middle photo). They are supposed to put their hands on top of their heads for their teacher to stamp them and he quickly learned the routine. In the bottom photo I was trying to take a few pictures of just the girls and he walked over and joined in. He really wants to do everything the girls do and thought he was a part of this class.

3rd tooth

This tooth has been loose for months now. In the past few days she started to really work on it and tonight she was sick and tired of it and wanted it out and done with. It was really getting in the way of eating her english muffins in the morning. I actually had to cut them up for her. Anyway, after she had looked at it for a few minutes she told me, "The tooth fairy will probably bring me something really great because this is a big tooth." I then made sure to ask what was "really great" and she said maybe two dollars instead of just one dollar she got for the last tooth. I couldn't help but smile and feel relief because a little girl at their school got a locket necklace.
