Dancing Queen


I am so excited! Hallie is starting ballet/tumbling on Monday! It is technically a class for 3 and up, but they are making an acception for Hallie and letting her start at 2. We're going to do a test run on Monday and see if her attention span is up to the task. We'll see. If she can do it, I'm so excited to go to the dance shop and get her little ballet slippers and tights and a leatard. How cute will that be! The class is twice a week for 1/2 hour at a time. (little attention spans I guess). I also had to post this pic to show how much Hallie and Chase DON'T look like me. :) They are both little mini-Matts. I love it. Hallie is doing really good, we are finding friends and finding lots of fun things to do on the base. There's story time on the base, play groups, ballet, and new little friends. I'm starting to feel not quite so isolated. Chase is starting to go about 4 hours between eating which is giving us a lot more flexibility with our schedual. He is SUCH a good baby and the sweetest, cutest little man. His smile makes me melt, but I haven't been able to catch him smiling on camera yet. I will though. Matt is working hard and loves taking Hallie to the beach and to the pool everyday. I'm doing good and trying to be a good little wifey/mommie. I'm cooking dinner (I know, you all can't believe it), packing Matt lunches, cleaning the house, doing the laundry, I feel so domesicated. I'm not saying I'm good at any of those things, but I'm trying. :)

Hi, Sara. Answering your question about adding links. They've made it LOTS easier, as a long as you have an upgraded your blog. Basically, click on customize blog. Then choose one of the things that says Add a Sidebar Element. When it give you choices, choose Hyperlinked List. Then you just add each person's name and web address. You can create multiple lists if you want to sort for family, friends, etc. Call me if you need help!

I will have to send you a picture of Katie at two years old. She and Hallie are twins. Lots of beautiful women and girls in the family.

What up Sara Powell!!! This is sooo fun! How have you been? I can't believe you have 2 kids. They are so cute!! I am so happy for you. Ballet huh? Good thinking and don't worry if she doesn't have the attention span for it at first. For my first class I galloped around the room the whole time while the other dancers were doing little bourees. I was only 2. No one thought I would go on to be a major in ballet I can tell you that much. Well I hope things are going well! I love your blog!
