Ballet Class

Clara has really enjoyed her ballet class. Not to sound prejudice, but Clara is the best in her class. These pictures were taken during their Valentine's Day party. Doesn't she look so cute in her tutu?! Here she is one of the last girls in "Miss Meagan Says" (aka Simon Says). It is pretty tricky to get this far into the game.
Clara didn't win but she tied for 2nd. Clara said this was her favorite part of class that day.
They played the "Pokey-Pokey". She is so cute!

It's a . . .

Butterfly . . . or a hamburger?! But not a turtle.
Confused a bit?
So was I, but Dale knew exactly what he saw and the sonogram technician confirmed it.
It's a GIRL!!!!
We are all thrilled. I am more happy that I will still have a bit of time to baby my baby boy for a little while longer.

Happy February 1st!

Woke up to a blizzard outside today. The high is supposed to get up to 14 degrees. Right now, the current temperature is 3 degrees. I think February is my favorite month because it is usually a month away from spring. We will find out next Monday what we are having. The anticipation is killing us! As soon as we know what it is, we will be able to move forward with more definite names and what colors we can prepare for.
Clara continues with her homeschooling. She loves her Math, but not a real fan of reading and writing. She has discovered Strawberry Shortcake, and has enjoyed playing with her little dolls.
James had an appointment with our new family doctor, Dr. Glen Patton. We really like him and wanted a doctor who could treat the whole family. James and Clara really liked him. The results of James' appointment: chest congestion. He is not sick but just has a lot of congestion in his chest. He's on natural medicine and other drugs, as well as a humidifier in his room. Hopefully, everything will clear up soon.
Dale still continues at Bombardier. Some days are good, and some not so good. Until something better comes our way, he will continue there.
