Random Cuteness



I haven't posted in a while, so here are a couple of newish pictures.

Sara has been having fun playing drums and singing with Rock Band.

Bounce House, the Redneck Way

We got the girls a bouncy house and Daddy Man wanted to let them play in it right away. He moved all the furniture around in the living room and set it up. It filled the entire room and the slide was sticking out into the entryway. The girls had a blast of course :) I am pretty surprised that I haven't had any requests to set it up yet this morning.

Ballerinas and Big Girl Beds


Menido started her first mommy & me ballet class today. It was very cute and she had a great time.

First, Bubbie took her to pick out her leotard and shoes.

Checking out her new outfit before class.

First we did some stretching.


Just looking cute. :)
She got to practice hopping, she loved that.
Next was walking on her tippy toes, she was good at that.
I think it was a success for her first time. The class was 45 minutes and she stayed interested for about 30. I've already been planning the ballet slipper cookies I'm going to make for all the girls for our last class.

Then, tonight I decided it was time for little Pita Pocket to transition to her "big girl bed". Menido has been asking me for a few weeks now when little sis was going to get her big bed. I switched big sis a few days before her first birthday. Anyway, she went down without a problem and is still sleeping. OK, so she fell out of the bed once already, but she was fine and went right back to sleep easily. I'll keep the crib set up for a few days to make sure she takes it ok during nap too, but then we will officially be crib free.

New Oven/Stove

We got a new range today and it's awesome! It has convection baking and has a big, long 5th burner on the stovetop that can be replaced with a griddle. I am so glad to not have the door fall off or randomly lock. I already used it tonight for a casserole for dinner and it was great.
