A & C happenings

Here's some of the Abigail and Caitlin have been up to lately....

*A few weekends ago, we decided to take the girls to try out their new Christmas presents from Nana and Papa.  We headed over to Coachlite roller skating rink, where both Rob and I grew up roller skating.  It was such a blast-from-the-past...and we had a great afternoon!  After 1 spin around, the girls got the hang of it and were able to skate by themselves.  There were plenty of falls, but no tears!  By the end, Caitlin was even spinning around!  :)


We're ready!  (I made them wear helmets, much to Rob's dismay!)


Too much fun!


This was their first spin around...and then they got brave.


This peanut is a natural skater!

*Last week was pajama day at school.  It's always one of the highlights of the school year.

This was Abigail's day at school...but Caitlin had to wear pajamas to Miss Bella's too!  I forgot a picture from Caitlin's day...she decided to wear Cinderella pajamas.  Cinderells has passed Elmo...I guess my little girl isn't so little anymore!


Mommy wore pajamas to teach too!

*The girls started up ballet again. This time they are in the ballet class that has no recital at the end...Caitlin's not old enough for that class yet and Abigail wants to try new things this year (gymnastics, soccer, and maybe basketball).  They have a great class with lots of girls...and they are always together.  I work out while they dance...but every once in a while I stop in to check on them and twice I caught them holding hands while they danced or listened to their teacher.  Melt. My. Heart.

Random picture...but my 5 year old is looking too old to me!  I can't believe that next week I have my first "kindergarten" meeting!

*Also, I have no pictures, but we had a really simple, but fun weekend that I wanted to document so I can look back and remember.  Rob went out with some friends on Saturday night, so it was just "the girls".  We decided we wanted breakfast for dinner because Daddy doesn't like it...and we decided to go out for pancakes.  Just the 4 girls went out and had chocolate chip pancakes for dinner ..and then we came home and the 4 of use cuddled on the couch and watched Wizard of Oz with popcorn.  It was such a quite, cheap (apparently the kids meals were free, it was awesome), great night with my girls...and I look forward to many more!


Lots more updates to come, including Daddy's Night and our family night out this week!
