Prima Ballerina

Anja Loves Ballet

look at that pointed toe!

Anja began another year of ballet at Studio 260.  (it's a new studio for us).  She loves having a skirt with her leotard.  And Anja is using my old ballet shoes...I love that they are still in good condition.  Anja is a natural ballerina...I LOVE that she LOVES ballet!  She is such a beautiful girl :)

Morning Sing

Carter sitting with his friends

Every Friday at 8:15 at Mt. Lebanon Elementary School, all the students gather in the gym to sing with members of the community for about 45 minutes.  Parents, friends, teachers and students all sing various songs to together, led by the music teacher.  It is SO darling!!  I loved it.  We will be attending this event lots and lots and lots!

Carter and Anja began their new school at Mt. Lebanon Elementary.  Carter began on Thursday August 30.  He road the bus on the first day.  So brave.  Anja began Kindergarten on Friday September 7.  I took her to class and she walked in ready to begin.  She waved good-bye with a huge smile on her face.  Then she got to ride the bus home...which she LOVED!!

Lunch at McDonald's

     Fischer got to do lots of fun activities on his birthday.  He woke up, had a delicious breakfast, played in the house, ate lunch at McDonald's with Anja and his best friend Kevin, played at the park, at Angry Bird cupcakes, and had pizza for his birthday dinner.  On Sunday we had a special birthday brunch for Fisch.  We made him Mario Brother's pancakes.  He loved it all.  And he loves being 4 years old!
