Another Dance Recital

Brooke had her 2nd dance recital today for her other tap and ballet class. She has really enjoyed dance and the recital was great!

She caught a glimpse of me in the audience and started blowing kisses.

Dance Recital

Brooke had her first dance recital this weekend for one of her tap and ballet classes.
She did a great job!

It was such a cute show with all of these little girls.

Happy 1st Birthday Drew!

Drew turned 1 today!

His party isn't until next weekend, so we went to "2 Toots" for a birthday cupcake.

Drew's real birthday surprise?!?! - He's gonna be a BIG BROTHER!

Silly Girls!

Brooke & Natalie had pictures in their recital costume for one of their dance classes the other day. Aren't they cute?!

I was able to get them to smile pretty for a couple really good pictures by letting them be silly inbetween.
Here are a few of their silly pictures.

They were cracking me up!

Big Boy Seat

Well, we finally made the switch from the infant carrier to the big boy carseat.

We have 9am church, so this is how we spend most of it.

Happy Easter!

Visiting the Easter Bunny!

Dora Live!

A couple of weekends ago we took Brooke to see Dora Live at the Chicago Theater. It was a good day and fun to get back down to the city!

Brooke is a huge Dora fan and has learned quite a bit of spanish from the show. In fact there are even some words that she mostly says in spanish instead of english. So if you're ever talking to her and can't understand what she is saying, it may very well be beccause she is speaking a different language!
