Dance Progress!

So Im happy to say Shelby is doing soooo much better at dance class! She is much more willing to participate :) She is the "little mother" in class....making sure all the kids sit in their chairs and she holds their hand and walks them back from the bathroom. She is hysterical!! I dont have many pics because most of the time im laughing! She is so good natured and likes to make sure everyone is taken care of! Its pretty amazing to watch. Ive really liked seeing her progress and go from Stiff as a statue to actually shaking her little self and doing the stuff :) She still wont do the "routine" which in its self is hysterical because she will just sit in the chair and watch the kids...funny thing is she knows the routine and does it at home!! Silly girl lol oh well one of these days she'll do it :)



these pics are not the greatest they are taken through the window and kinda blurry (im still learning my new camera) Here she is getting her chair and putting it up by the mirror :) doing their stretching excercises

they sing a bunch of little songs and do "pretty princess feet" (pointing their toes)




helping her friend



doing butterfly feet




jumping on the trampoline!! She loves this and the part where they do summersaults or "flip flops" as Shelby says :)










Halloween Activities

Me and Aunt Ninni did a Halloween themed craft with the girls on the weekend days we would go over for "Family Dinner". We had a blast and the kids did so well. We made "stained glass" pumpkins and Ghosts!! We are making a footprint ghost banner for my parents Halloween party but I dont have pics of that yet!

Here is Nik and Lex working on the pumpkins
Mommy helping Shelby











The next weekend we did paper plate ghosts!! We actually left the pumpkins at my parents house for decorations and then we took the ghosts home for our decorations and they were perfect!! Ill have to get a pic of our house decorated this weekend when we put our pumpkins out :)


here were the finished pumpkins...i totally forgot to get a pic that day lol oops! so we got one the next weekend :)









I thought the crafts came out super cute and the girls had so much fun doing them!! Its nice to do this stuff with the kids because Shelby isnt in school yet to do crafts and we hardley ever get see what Lex does at school since she goes to school in coalinga :( So this was super fun!! Me and Nikki are planning on doing it thru the holidays too! So we will start Thanksgiving crafts in November!!!
