Ava's First Dance Recital












Our little diva had her first dance recital and we are so proud of her! She did a great job and was excited to have her family there to see it! Daddy gave her flowers after her performance which just made her day! She said, "Now I can be a wedding girl since I have flowers!" Yikes, not yet!
During the medal ceremony at the end of the recital, Sophia decided to run across the stage and share the spotlight. I attached a pic of her looking up at the big girls like, "wow.............someday I'll be big like you............."





Another fun thing Ava told me recently was when I was putting her down for her nap and she said, "Mommy, we should say our prayers......no wait, let's just send God an e-mail!" That's our girl! Ava is also very good at writing her name, can spell her last name and knows her phone # and address!



Sophia is excited because she started going to Little Gym today too! She just wanted to touch everything, climb on everything and was running around squealing. She is definitely our "no fear" girl! She's starting to sing and loves to dance.

Happy New Year 2008!









We had a great New Years Eve and we hope that we will have an even better New Year!

The girls got new hair cuts (Ava's second, Sophie's first) and Ava makes sure to tell everyone she sees that she has a new beautiful hairdo! Ava just wanted to make sure that cutting Sophie's hair with the scissors wouldn't hurt her. We assured her that she would be fine. Sophie did a great job and sat very still. Ava saw a girl in the lobby of Kenneth's (before she got her haircut) that was wearing a tiara, so Ava thought that everyone that gets a haircut receives a tiara afterwards. I had to explain to her that, unfortunately, that was not the case.
