This morning we went to the Botanical center for some fun. They are having a great Butterfly exhibit. Here Alma, Andrew and Andra were walking like a caterpillar

brag time

Andra moved up a level at swim class. She was very excited to ring the bell.

She has mastered:
•Rhythmic breath exchange
•Front float
•Comfort on back
•Comfortable independent underwater exploration
•Nose bubbles
•Kicking, face in, blowing bubbles


swimming is hard work
then off to meet Daddy for dinner and Costco
yes she still has her swimming medal on

To add to Andra's fun that day before swimming we went to the Dr for her 3 year check up.

She is in the 50% height and 65% weight!!

33lbs and 36.75 inches

She could pass as an advanced 4 year old or a slightly behind 5 year old on speech (Hahaha)

She passed many of the 4 year olds motor development tests too!

Andrew and I are very proud of our baby girl!!!

new ballet class

Andra started a new ballet class this week. They have lots of rules: black leotard (with nothing on it), pink tights, pink shoes, hair in bun, and no skirt. I did call and say "so, what if we can not make a bun?" They lady was very nice and said she would show me how to make one if we came a little early. Ya, I laughed. When we got there, she did too.

The pictures are not great because I am on crutches and we had to peak in a current as we can not watch during class. Andra is in the center


Andra being helped into first position

She loved it and was not happy I had to take her ballet shoes off.

Andra rode her bike and scooter but that was before I got there so no pics but Andrew said she had fun.
