Tiny Dancer!

Alaina started dance class this past Monday and she ABSOLUTELY LOVES IT!!  She did not want to leave!  Everyday she asks if we can go back to dance class and then gets bummed out when I tell her not today.  I was very surprised to see her listen to the teacher so well...I wasn't really sure what to expect!  I'm sooo glad she likes it...because I did not like it at all and all I did was cry for my mom non-stop!  Alaina didn't even care when I left the room!  We are so proud of you Alaina and can't wait to watch you turn into a beautiful tiny little dancer!

Listening to the teacher very intensely!...Far right is another one of Alaina's friends from daycare - Kylie.  2nd from left is Gabby - a friend of a friends daughter!



Meeting all my dance team friends!

Reese & Alaina showing us their dance moves...Gabby not so much! 

Alaina is still dancing away...but Reese and Gabby are not interested!

I'm having soo much fun!

 

Alaina and her two best friends from daycare....notice Kylie and Alaina were not standing by each other in any of the above pictures...They had to be separated pretty early on in the class for pushing and hitting each other!  (They really do like each other though!) ; )

Kylie is so over this photo session...!

The great Minnesota get together!

We decided it was time for Alaina's first trip to the great Minnesota get together!  We picked the perfect day, it was 70 degree's and nice and packed... but then again when is it not?  We

We started off with a ride on the carousel with Papa!

There's my mommy & daddy!  Look how much fun I'm having!

The big slide!!...Mommy was worried I would get scared...

But, I showed her!  I LOVE the big slide!!



Next we hit up the birthing center!!



I really wanted to hold all the babies...but they we're too scared of me!

Me & Papa!

Have you tried the strawberry frozen yogurt?  Yummy, Yummy in my tummy!

I don't know why I'm standing in front of this weird looking mouse thing..my mom told me to?!

Even Elvis was at the State fair!

And we saved the best for last!!  The Kid Way!!

This slide was fun, but not nearly as fun at the BIG slide!

Bumper Boats!

Hot air balloon ride with Grandma Kathy!

This is fun!

And the night cap, a chocolate dipped frozen banana!  Save yourself the extra calories..it was nothing special!

All in all we had a great trip to the great Minnesota get together and I think we'll definitely have to go back next year!

Twinkle Twinkle!

I stayed up extra late just to give Karen this little Alaina fix!
