More dance pictures

I had to get a couple more pics of Caylin at dance class.

Dancing is so fun with buddy Kaylee

Time for ballet
Tap dancing to Puff the Magic Dragon

What happened!

Putting make-up on in front of the mirror used to consist of finger paint, or chocolate.

Now....
Dress up used to be for fun and play
Now...
She's growing up so fast! With the little ones there's times when I just want this season of poopy diapers and no sleep to go by faster, and then there's times that I just want to freeze.

Fun at the Childrens Museum

Eventhough it's nothing like I remember it being, we had a great time today visiting the Children's Museum. We walked over with our friends who live pretty close and enjoyed the excitement of seeing the trolley up close and personal. Then met up with more of our friends for tons of fun! Caylin loved all the hands on fun. Her favorite was painting a car, a real one. This car had about 2,000 coats of paint and Caylin managed to cover her hands and arms with about 2,000 coats of paint!

What an awesome night!

One of the events I love to watch during the Olympics is gymnastics! And tonight Will, Aiana, and I went to Frosted Pink with a Twist (which is a campaign supporting women’s cancer) and got to see the US gymnastics team perform live!! Not only that, but perform to live music by Cyndi Lauper (love the 80’s!), Kenny Logins (whoo hoo footloose!), and more. I just love Shawn Johnson, she is such a sweetie and has great energy! One of my favorite routines was Shawn Johnson performing on the beam to "True Colors" (I was going to post a clip, but we were sitting so high up it wasnt worth the time, especially since the show is going to air on TV). It was such a treat! The show will be aired on ABC on Oct 12.

Visiting with Angela!

My step-sister and her husband Donal are visiting from Ireland. They live in a small town called Spiddal on the West Coast of Ireland, near Galway. We were able to hang out with them for a while this weekend and catch up. I’m not ready to take on such a long trip with the kids, but I would LOVE to go visit her one day!

Go Toreros!

Our niece Torey plays volleyball for USD. I wish we could make it to all of her games, they are amazing to watch! But of course, having 2 little ones it’s hard to get out. But this weekend Will took Caylin on Friday night and Aiana to a game on Saturday. Caylin could not stop talking about “Towey” and now knows the #8, because that is Torey’s number. She also dug out her bicycle knee pads and has been insistent on wearing them, I could not figure out why until she told me “now I’m like Towey”. She even had to sleep with these on! Aiana and Will had a great time on Saturday and of course the Toreros won both games! We are hoping to get Aiana to check out Volleyball camp next summer at USD with Torey!

My favorite models

I went out with a friend and a few other photographers last week for a little photo fun. Of course I had to post a few of Caylin and Anika (my other favorite model was in school)...
