Cute Little Tapping Mouse



Sabrina was in a ballet/tap class this spring and here is a photo and video of the final show.

Here's her portrait in her costume:

Aunt Deed was here to see it from MN which was a great treat!  Sabrina loved having an audience and handled the lights/costumes/pressure really well.  We might have a performer on our hands.  

I took this video at the dress rehearsal even though we weren't really supposed to and they don't allow any photography or videography during the real show, so unfortunately it's pretty bad quality but hopefully you can get the idea. Sabrina is fourth from the left and she was on it a lot of the time!  She was singing her heart out during the show too.

Kalira Turns Two!

We celebrated Kalira's second birthday on the beach in Mexico.  It was a great week of tons of pool time, beach time, and "macamole" which was her favorite food all week.  She insisted that she was "twoeee" all week and thinks it's hysterical to pretend like she's three not two.  That's definitely her best joke right now.




After we got back home, we welcomed Grandma Gail and Grandpa Rich for the weekend and we had a birthday party at the park with friends to cap off Kali's birthday season.  Unfortunately, Sabrina got sick that weekend with croup and she had to miss the festivities, but she was able to rally the next morning for a fun Mother's Day brunch (albeit in the SNOW!!) at Nana & Poppy's where we had all the grandparents together.




Kali is talking up a storm these days and growing up in leaps and bounds every day!  Here is a random video from the other night that shows her goofy personality, her words, and her sweet love for her sister.

This one also shows her quintessential "two-ness"  Wahhh I want Daddy...hot dog?? sure!


Sabrina's latest obsession is definitely showing that she's her mother's daughter - a Disney musical, Frozen.  Here is her rendition of "Do you Want to Build a Snowman?"
