Craft Day Birthday Party




Makana had some of her girl friends come for a butterfly craft party. Although some of them did not finish their craft (including Makana), they had a great time! :)

(And thanks to Donna Shaw, I discovered how fun it was to make those butterfly cupcakes!)

Get your ice-cold lemonade!


Makana shouts this phrase now as she prepares to go to the "special" baseball games (pre-season ones). She likes the lemonade man, who also happens to sell peanuts and "candy-floss," an Angelina Ballerina term she uses for cotton candy.

Of course, our favorite lemonade still comes from Chick-Fil-A! :)

Work the progression from the bottom to the top. Does she even watch the game? :)

Peek-a-Boo!


I'm growing! I am now over 7 pounds and love to eat! :)

Ballerina in the making?




Makana's new "thing" is her ballet class. She was so excited to take ballet, especially after watching Angelina Ballerina, but for her first class she froze into a painfully shy state. Since then, however, she has loved every minute of her class.

These pics were taken outside of her class, prior to her putting on her ballet slippers. She said she is "doing like Auntie Mary" when she has her leg up. :)

While I do think Makana is much better suited for gymnastics, as she is quite aggressive for a girl and not afraid of heights, starting her at age 3 here would entail a much pricier investment than we'd like to have as a trial for her right now. We'll see what 'Bama has to offer. :) For now, she is thoroughly enjoying the more classical and graceful discipline. :)
