Danny started his Tennis lessons yesterday! He had so much fun and was doing pretty well. They had 20-25 kids from 4-6 years old. They broke them up into groups of 5, and each group had a coach work with them. The coach tossed 4-5 balls to each child to work on the different strokes.

And more of Princess Mia, yes that is a pillow case that she is sleeping in.

Mia making a design your own purse in her tutu. I found a kit that had a canvas tote and felt stickers for decorating. She loves it and carries her baby doll Amelie in it. She starts Ballet class next week!

Car wash

Last night Danny asked if he could wash my car today. It was a warm sunny day, so why not? They had a blast and even got some of the neighborhood kids to help. Needless to say, they went to bed very easily tonight.
And more of the princess.

Amelia

I just came down from Mia's room- it is 1030 at night. Chris and I have been watching her on the monitor for the past hour. She pulled everything out of her closet and has been putting on a fashion show on her bed. This is how she ended up. I don't know if the picture does justice to the amount of clothes in her bed.She has a strong sense of her own fashion. She picks out her clothes every day now. It usually involves dresses, leggings, hats and tutus.
We have promised her ballerina classes for her 3rd birthday.

She sleeps in her hat most nights. I don't know where she came from- she cracks us up!

Painting

We are starting to get the baby's room ready. We bought furniture for Danny's room that will be delivered mid-June. That gives us about a month to get the nursery and Danny's room painted. The kids wanted to help, so we let them help with the primer.
We are going to paint the nursery a purple color and Danny wants black. I think he will have to settle for more of a blue color.

Opening Day

Springboro had their Opening Day for the Baseball league yesterday. They had a parade of all the players, food, bounce houses and all kinds of activities for the players. Danny had a blast! It was also the first game day for most of the kids. Danny is on the yellow team- number 7.

Tagging first

Batting

Danny in his uniform. He looks so proud and excited when he comes off the field after running the bases. The first thing he does is look for us and give us hi-fives.

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter! We had a lazy morning. We all slept in and went to brunch with some friends. Now we are watching baseball and eating candy. The kids loved seeing the Easter Bunny.

Easter 1

We finally got around to dying our Easter Eggs this afternoon. Mia had a Disney Princess kit with lots of stickers.
In this picture, she is giving us her version of a thumbs up.
Danny had a Star Wars kit- surprise, surprise! He was so excited to decorate his eggs. The kit had film strips from the old movies- this one was a clip of jaba the hut.

And the big excitement- the Tie Fighter egg!!!
