First Ballet Class

pad letters to Charlotte Roberto Kayga

We were ready. We had tried on your little pink ballet slippers. We had even lucked out and found some tiny but wider than average shoes in about your size that were Capezio (well made) at Once Upon A Child for $8!!
We had selected the perfect leotard (pink) and perfectly pink baby tights.

We arrived on time. Ruby went first and I waited to change you into your outfit until you had eaten dinner. Then, you colored and played barbies while we waited for Ruby to finish.

It was time! You and 10 other "tiny stars" went into your first ballet class. There is no window so I tried to peak in on you through a crack in the door. No luck.

You came out after class very excited and I asked you "Did you have fun?"

To which you gave your standard "nope".

!!

But you said it with your impish smile so I know you did. :)

Wockles

I will be so sad when you stop asking for "wockles and seewup" for breakfast. Someday, you'll just ask for plain waffles. I love your little lisp, although I know we need to start working on your speech more.

Bye bye wockles. :)

Yay!!!

Whenever you notice somebody come out of the bathroom now and flush the toilet, you clap your hands and say " yay mommy!! You did it!! You get a sticker!!"

So cute.

Doll potty seat

Grandma Hatch makes these awesome furniture pieces for your babies. You guys really love them and they are so special because she makes them just for you.

Potty Trained

I am so proud of you!!! You were potty trained in a span of about two weeks. That's pretty incredible to me!!!!!

The only time we wear diapers now is at night and when we go out. Gradually even those will go away.

You are growing up right before me. Right now, you are teaching Dora to go potty on the little potty chair grandma made you.
