Ballet teacher came out and told Andy that Anna Claire was doing exceptionally good. Didn't say anything to other parents--singled her out. 😊
I was proud of her! I thought she looked REALLY good the last time she went, but what do I know about ballet, right?! 😉

Just left tag agency--got tag, didn't have screwdriver and got stopped by police. Haha! All is well though--everything in order. :-)
Yeah--more hilarious is that Anna Claire had to tell the policeman that it was her birthday and she was making cupcakes!

The girls were so excited to start ballet yesterday! Anna Claire
Has asked me twenty times at least to start back. I hope she enjoys! She worked hard yesterday for her new teacher and I was proud of her for the effort. I hope she can find her niche and something she loves, whether it's gymnastics, ballet, art or whatever!
Juliana has never gone to ballet before and she was SO. EXCITED! Everything was wonderful for her: wearing her hair in a ponytail, her leotard, her tights, all of it! She went right in with her teacher (I was concerned about this and didn't think twice about mama not being in there (very proud since Juliana can be unpredictable in this regard). It was a great experience!
Oh, and we started our first day of homeschooling also! Anna Claire was a great student and I was pleased overall with how it went. A little more review than she really needs, so in not sure how to proceed in that regard. I'm
Sure it's going to take a while to get our sea legs, but I sure hope we love it! I certainly love being with her! She's growing too fast and i live in constant second-guessing myself if I did enough, spent enough time, loved on her enough, quality time, etc. I deal with it with the other girls also, it just feels like time is flying so fast with Anna Claire these days--I can't believe we are in first grade already!
I had my glucose test this morning at my appointment with Dr. Lazenby also. I am anxious to hear about this because i know I have been eating SO BAD this pregnancy. I absolutely dread losing this weight. :-( excited to
Meet our new sweet baby Isabella though!

Anna Claire still says several words in cute "little girl" ways. She calls Andy "Dat-Dee" instead of a hard D sound like DadDy. It's sweet. My dad corrected her the last visit and i had to scold him. :-) I think a sweet last remnant of being a tiny girl!
One thing she still says also is "cheese Bikkit", instead of calling it (at McDonald's) a bacon, egg and cheese biscuit. Haven't ever really thought twice about it, but Saturday when she rode with the Monks to the lake for the youth lake trip, they ran through medina kids....asked her what she wanted and she told them, a cheese bikkit. So they ordered a cheese biscuit. Then as they handed out the food she says, "hey, there's no egg on this!!!" They didn't know and so they truly ordered her just a biscuit with cheese! :-) I guess she learned her lesson about being more specific!!

Juliana just tried to cut Eliza's hair in the back room and cut her earlobe instead. She bled like a stuck hog but is okay otherwise. :-)
She didn't take it lying down...."NO NO NO JUNIANA! No cut Wiza ear!!!" While wagging that little finger!

Eliza sleeps with Anna Claire EVERY.SINGLE.NIGHT. You would think Anna Claire would get tired of it, but she loves it! They've started taking "bath showers"
(Showers in the bathroom that has a shower/tub combo) together too. I love how good Anna Claire usually is with Eliza! The funny thing is, both big girls are good with Eliza, just not with each other! Haha!!!
Painted with Anna Claire today and it was a joy. I have no real skill, but she loves the one-on-one time and I enjoy being creative with her!
We also got to go to breakfast together today while the littles went to Playpals. I used the time to talk with her and read a book about her body by Jim Burns. I was concerned that we hadn't really done a good job discussing our bodies and who should see her clothed/unclothed and good touches/bad touches, etc. Andy and I agreed that we should probably be more direct with this, and it went great. Whew!!
We think we've settled on a name for Baby #4: Isabella Noelle. :-) naming children is soooooo hard! I wanted Noelle for a first name since she will prob be a December baby, but Andy liked it better as a middle name.
