We have a Ballerina!?!

As a mother of 3 boys, you begin to adjust to certain routines and expectations. You understand that you may actually have to say the words, "Yes, you have to change your underwear every day!" more than once. You become an expert on Newton's lesser known law of inertia: An object at rest will be put in motion as soon as one of my children enters the room. And although you may not ever really understand it, you resign yourself to the need your children have to tackle each other on sight. So when we brought this sweet little pink and white infant home 4 years ago, I assumed she would be a tomboy ready to roll with the roughest of them. Who knew she would turn out to be such a girl?

So she has rejected the world of organized sports for now and embraced her inner grace and, well, diva-hood. We can't wait to see what she does this December in the Children's Nutcracker Ballet.
But lest you worry that she is too much a priss...Anna has also lately taken to training on our furniture for "Ninja Warrior."

How very cute. My girls have been thinking of switching from gymnastics to dance. We haven't done anything since we moved to CT (and that has been kind of nice for a while).

And my kids all love ninja warrior too.
