Wow....it has been a while

I have been seriously neglecting my blog, mainly because this last quarter of school was insane, long, heartbreaking....I can not name a single good adjective to describe it! The good news is that it is over and now that the holidays are over I can spend time with some of my favorite things. This week I am going to post some of the highlights of the last three months. Obviously I will not be able to post everything.....

Starting with Aidan's first Midnight Madness, and HALLOWEEN...yes I know that we just had Christmas, but gotta start somewhere.....Aidan is finally in Step One Competition and LOVES it!Here are a few pics of her in with her "I'm so Pretty" ballet costume, plus a little snippet of the girls performing after only a few weeks of practice.

Here are a few videos of the girls...one from Midnight Madness "I'm so pretty", and one from parent observation"Walk the Dinosaur".This was a few months ago, and they had just learned the dances....some of the girls are in their first year in competition, some have done it a few years all ready!

I'm not going to say much about our Halloween happenings....but I will post a few pics of the kids in their costumes....just for memories sake!

Kailey Marie turns 2

I can't believe how much KK has grown in the last year. She has her own little personality, and happens to LOVE Dora(Dowa) and Diego. She had a windy Dora birthday party at Sharon Woods. The kids played and played...

It took me soooo many pics to get any good ones of KK because she loves to look away at the last second...it was so much more fun to watch her open presents this year.Notice her cute little necklace that Sarah had made for her.

Of course we had to end with Dora cake

A Sleepover with KK

My niece Kailey came for a sleepover after our festivities on Labor Day at Grandma's house. Here are a few pics of the place that our wedding ceremony will take place. Don't worry it will be much more spectacular when I'm done with it...lol

Then we had Kailey over....we had so much fun! It was so nice to have a little two(almost) year old in the house. I truly miss those days.....I miss their sweet little hands and feet the most. I really couldn't get her to actually look at the camera. So I took the best pictures that I could.

Of course she had to have a bath after the long day of playing..Aidan took one with her and she would not be happy if I posted pics...lol

I had to put her in an ovesized T-shirt. I love little kids in big T-shirts.

It was also a very big night for Aidan...the poor girl inherited my hairiness...and had grown really really really long hair in her legs. So long that you could probably brush it....really! She took a little ridicule about it at school, which I also remember getting in dance class. So I naired it for her....yes I removed the hair from her calves...am I a bad Mom for not standing up to peer pressure?

The next day when the kids went to school is when KK and I really were able to spend time together. I get no love when her cousins are around....we colored, watched her favorite Dora, danced, andchased eachother around. Such a good girl!

How can you not LOVE this face????
