Mali Su our Ballerina

Mali Su has impatiently been waiting on her dance class at the YMCA to start. She came home from school and went right to her room and changed. She still had 3 hours to fill before class so I sat down with her and showed her pictures of "ballerina" buns for her hair and we did this one that she picked out with the braid.

She is more flexible than I thought. I loved watching her float around like a little fairy in class. She has a lot to learn but I think she'll do great! I love the classes at the YMCA as it seems they teach the basics of each sport/class and I like that. I am all for well-rounded children.

I love my beautiful ballerina dancer girl. My Mom told me she reminds her of me. She posed herself and all it made me think of is how those Barbie Ballerina DVDs are great teachers.

I am enjoying this phase of life, even if it did scare me to be a "chauffeur" mom. So far I don't feel overwhelmed by it all so that makes me happy.

Talking to my Dad today he said how great it was that I was the one taking them to these things not a nanny or babysitter and that itself was great. He's right, it is great that I am able to be there for all these moments in their life. I am blessed and I am grateful to be a mother.

20 Weeks

Today we had the opportunity to go in for our 20 week ultrasound. We are excited to announce that baby #3 is a healthy BOY! We are excited but have to admit we are a bit nervous. Change is hard and after two girls this is definitely a change. It will be a fun and wonderful experience. I have already thought about little boy ACUs and PT clothes (little army clothes) and what I will decorate the "boy" room in etc. I have always heard boys are "easier" but more rambunctious so I guess we will just have to see. I was excited that during the ultrasound our little boy was crossing his legs at the ankle like both his sisters do! So funny! We will keep y'all posted on names and other developments.

Halloween 2023

We pulled off our best Halloween! Possibly ever! Jake had a vision and it came true beautifully. He even had the cutest song he sang. I loved our last Halloween in our Hurst home.

sometimes life may get you down

but then you remember how wonderful you husband is and it makes it all ok. Jake surprised me by ordering these gorgeous handmade pearl earrings from TINY STORM for me for Christmas and they were waiting for us with all our mail when we arrived back home after vacation. He got down on one knee and presented me with these earrings and it brought tears to my eyes. I am so grateful to have such a wonderful, hardworking, and loving husband who is always there to take care of me and love me when I am having a rough time. Thank you Jacob!
