Hoppy Easter!

 lol OK I know I am a few days late...but better late then never right?

So our Easter weekend was a lot of fun! Friday we went to my Grandmother's retirement building to celebrate Easter with her and my Dad's side of the family. There is 9 kids in total ranging from 2-16, so we had an egg hunt for all of them, along with crafts to keep them busy. Then we all brought a dish for our potluck lunch YUM! 


Then on Saturday we went to Orillia to the country produce store. They have the best salad bar around, we literally drive 30 minutes to have salad! lol. Then in the late afternoon Loralai and I went to my managers daughters 3rd Dora themed birthday party! Although Loralai did not like Dora too well, she did have a fun! 


On Sunday the Easter Bunny made his appearance and we had an egg hunt! Loralai had a ball searching for all the eggs.




Lots of fun! Lots of smiles! Lots of memories!
Happy Easter Everyone!

Dance Dance Dance!

Loralai started her first dance class this evening, and she did so great! I was literally on the verge of tears the entire class, I am afraid that yes, I am going to be one of those blubbering Mommies! Loralai was a little clingy before the class started, so I was a little nervous that she would be shy during the class, but no, she was so excited and in there participating, and listening so well to her teacher Miss Stephani! 

Loralai before the class started!
Having so much fun during the class!

This Ring Around The Rosy song was teaching them how to do side steps. They also pretended to be pony's, and when Miss Stephani asked Loralai what her favourite colour was she said "Rainbow" lol, they also pretended to be butterflies, make pizza, and be the little mouse in the Hickory Dickory Dock song.

So parents are only allowed in maybe the first two weeks if the child needs them, I don't think that I will have to go in next week though. They will in the 3rd week have a little routine to show the parents, and then in the final class they will put on a recital for the parents! :)

After the class was over :)
 




Loralai starts soccer in May as well!

So quick Loralai update:

  • She is stuck in  "what" phase and it is driving me bonkers! So I am now trying to get her to say pardon instead. 
  • She can count to 13 without any trouble 
  • She can also count to 8 in Spanish (Thanks Dora)
  • Loralai can really sing her ABC's well now
  • She calls all words ABC's. i.e.: I had a stamp on my hand, and she said "Mommy what is that ABC's on your hand?" LOL
  • Loralai can pick up sushi maki with chop sticks!
