Mischief

I'm convinced God has given me a child who is as equally precocious as I was at her age. Here are some photos of her latest ventures. This morning, she emptied an entire 20 oz. bottle of bubble bath liquid into the bath while my back was turned. It was quite the bath. Last week, she tried her hand at "henna art" all over her legs with a green marker.

I can't wait to see what tomorrow shall bring.....

Portland Highland Games

Thought a few of you might appreciate this shot taken of my band at the Portland Highland Games yesterday. The Clan MacLeay Pipes & Drums are the row of red kilts on the left.

More adorableness

Sorry. I couldn't resist adding a few more toddlers in tutu's photos. These kids are just so stinking cute. I've also included a few shots of a day out to see the ships on the Willamette during my parents visit. And our little diva following in Daddy's footsteps.

More Ballet Photos

Sorry. Some of these might overlap with the last blog post.

Toddlers in Tutu's

Today Fiona attended her first "Tiny Tutu's" class, specifically for 2 year olds. I almost died of cuteness. Who knew they make toddler sized ballet slippers?

Anyway, enjoy. More photos to come!

Easter and Newport

 Happy May! Just a brief update and a few photos about April, which passed oh-so- quickly.

Easter fell on a sunny, and mostly beautiful weekend. Her two little neighbor friends came over for egg coloring on Saturday, and on Sunday we went to church followed by Fiona's very first Easter egg hunt. Someday, when I figure out how to upload Youtube videos onto this blog, you will get to enjoy a pretty funny egg hunting video. :)

Grandma Green sent Fiona her very first Easter basket full of chocolate. Fiona told me for the following week how much she likes chocolate cake. Apparently, anything in chocolate form is considered cake to a two year old who hasn't eaten many sweets in her two years.

Last week, we enjoyed a short trip to Newport - my favorite coastal town. Although Fiona was pretty sick for most of it, she was still able to spend a little time playing on the beach, and learning how to bark at sea lions on the docks.

Today it's 70 degrees and sunny out. Bryan and I replaced our back yard pond with a small vegetable garden, and we already have a few greens sprouting. I am so ready for summer!!!
