Well there is not too much to report on this week.
Emmalee began her dance lessons again on Wednesday - she is focusing on ballet this year, and when I watched for a while through the window, I could see that they will be learning serious ballet this year. The last 4 years she has been in combination classes, and the girls have all been younger - now that they are in second grade, 7 and 8 years old, they are starting to get down to business. There was none of the goofing off I have seen in classes previous - the girls stood in their lines and practiced their positions and *danced*. I am so glad we chose ballet - Emmalee looked so graceful - and she really enjoyed the class. I am looking forward to seeing what she learns and how she grows as a dancer this year.
Micah absolutely loves school - he cried this week when I picked him up because he wasn't ready to leave yet. The last 15 or so minutes of school is playing outside. And Mrs. Tighe, his teacher, has kid motorcycles - which are really just 3-wheel bikes that they pedal, but Micah really thinks he is riding a motorcycle. It is his favorite part of the day - as soon as they get outside until I pick him up, Micah is riding circles in the fenced-in part of her driveway.
And as far as Lily goes -

And as far as Lily goes -
she has been taking steps by herself now! She has taken up to 4 steps before falling. She is still a monkey - climbing all over everything! And she now says "shoe" (she loves shoes!)
We are having a yard sale tomorrow morning - trying to get rid of a bunch of stuff! I'll let you know how it goes!
