6 years old and already a dancing queen!

I know that I teased everyone with the idea of posting the video of her school dance, but that was just too long to post, but I took this sweet video of the girls dancing one morning and I HAD to post it. Enjoy.

excessive or nutritious?

By the time I have this child I think I will be probably be huge because I eat much more than I did with either girls. Ali agrees with me because for the last week, every picture that she has drawn of me has me eating food.

The figure (reported to be me) on the bottom right has a "plate with a tomato on it"

Here I apparently couldn't help myself because I have a huge stack of food on my plate.

This is what Ali said when I asked her what this picture is, "Me swinging on the swings, and daddy pushing me, and mommy eating"

Also here is a video of my girls/princesses dancing. I thought it was pretty funny, and I know it is a bit long, but hopefully you will enjoy it as much as I do.

Skirts and tomatoes

My dad got the girls these really cute skirts, and they just couldn't help spinning with them. Do you think you could resist a spin if you put on one? Side note: Ali picked out both her own, and Kat's outfit.



I GOT TOMATOES!!!! I grew these from seeds!!! I know that it a lot of exclamation points, but in my defense, it is a HUGE deal that I was able to grow these. As a huge benefit, they actually taste really yummy. Side update: My avocado plant is still not a plant. It is just a seed with a small root system. Maybe I am doing something wrong there, but at least I succeeded with one plant.

I dyed my hair; what do you think?

Another look, plus a really cute picture of Dez.

Just because you have to see it

I know that I already did my post for the day, but I have to post this because it is just too funny. Moral of the story, don't turn your back on a baby in front of a birthday cake!

First comes walking then comes...dancing?

The next day (September 15) after my last post about Kat walking Nick got home from 30 hour call. I had to show him Kat's new skill since he could only view it from his iphone in between visiting patients. We sat down and Nick asked Kat to walk to me. Her vacuum was blocking her so she leaned down to move it out of the way, and it started to make music. Below is the result.

Princess and the Pea

Just a short clip of her eating peas.


Her hair is just long enough for a small flower pot.

Why do they grow so fast?

I think the movie speaks for itself.

If you look close, you can see that Ali wrote her name. It may look like she wrote it upside down, but really I just turned the board around so that her name could be seen in the shot. This is not the first time that she has written her name, but it was the first time her name is recognizable. 

Kat Talking and Smiling

The title pretty much explains it all.
