A Smiling Face, Dancing Feet and A 30 Year Old!

If that picture doesn't make you smile then I don't know what will. I can't get enough of it that's for sure! Our big boy is officially sitting up now and loves to play with toys and watch the girls dance around him. The downside of him getting older is that his hands have turned into little magnets that grab and attach to everything and anything in their path, especially my hair! 


He still wears clothes that are right on target (6-9 mos) and seems to be right about average in weight but is in the 85th percentile on height, YAHOO!!! :) 

I mentioned that the girls dance around him, that they do because they have been enjoying their dance classes where we have been learning Jazz. For them though it just means running around a little bit more, doing leaps and lots of step and claps. hahaha they sure do love it, especially when we pull out the ribbons. Here are a few pics of them before class.




I think Leah has a dancers build, she is very graceful and is always walking around on tip toes. Nice form Leah Jane!




Lily on the other hand is my little gymnast who likes to roll all over the place and do her favorite, somersaults. 







Andrew's 30th birthday was last Tuesday and we had some friends come over for dinner and dessert. For his birthday gift he got surround sound for our TV and it is awesome! especially because we have a Roku so we listen to Pandora all day and the sound system is good enough to fill our little house. We seem to get more work done when we can groove to music as we do it. On Saturday we went to the Olive Garden with Andrew's family and had cake and Ice Cream at the Butikofer's house afterwards. I'm so glad that Andrew's family live close by so that we can celebrate birthdays twice! They are so fun and I'm sure Andrew enjoyed all the fun we had together. Till our next birthday in April with Little Lily who is turning 4!!!! oh my word..... :)

It's good to see the girls dancing. I loved going to dancing when I was young and spry. One of the best days of the week was dance-class day. Happy Birthday, Andrew!
