Spring

"P" IS for princess!

Happy Mother's Day

Another wonderful Mother's Day. Thank you Jonathan, Michaela and Nate for making me the happiest mother in the world!

Dance Michaela, Dance!

Michaela's first ballet show "Under the Sea" was a huge success. She made us "ooh" and "aaah", and made us roll in our seats laughing! Flowers from Grandma and Grandpa! She keeps them in her room now, and keeps asking to have another ballet show so that Grandpa will give her flowers again.

A Girl and her Spider

Michaela spotted this spider on her wall and was so happy to have it. She seemed to feel he came because he wanted to be friends with her. I agreed to catch it and put it in her bug jar, and after many squeals and shrieks (on my part) I did it! She held her bug jar with delight saying "my very first pet, it's my pet!" I wanted to remind her that we had bought her 2 gerbils, but she was just so happy! That was yesterday, and she still has that poor spider.

Unfortunately she also has the habit of standing on our balcony, talking (yelling) to everyone and anyone who will listen, even if that person is on a balcony 2 buildings away. Well, yesterday she stood out there all day yelling to people about all the bugs we have in our house, "We have so many bugs, mommy caught one, look at my bug, spiders eat bugs.....etc...." Sigh.

So far we've seen one fly and one spider, but to a 3 years old that amounts to lots of bugs.....





I'm so embarrassed!

Because it's been a while...

This was taken last night. Welcome Spring...We missed you!
