Ballet camp and one happy mama!

I've always wanted to be a dance mom...I danced pretty seriously until I was 15, and then I quit to play sports. But I'll always love it! The Nutcracker was my favorite growing up and still is...so when we moved to Thomasville I found a studio that performed it every year and would make Matt take me. I knew that I wanted MC to start taking at 2 but the classes were only offered during the day while I was working....until now! I signed Molly Caroline up for ballet this week! They decided to offer a class after school  for her age this year! We're both excited and I hope she loves it for at least a couple of years of not longer!

She got to do an Alice in Wonderland ballet camp with this dance company at the end of June. She has the ballet bug for sure! They had a tea party, an unbirthday party, got to dance with all the characters, and so much more! Foxy came to visit so she could see the show at the end of the week...which MC pouted through half of it bc a girl wouldn't talk to her! But then did great at the end! 

7 months old!

Anna Claire! You are the happiest baby we know! 

You roll everywhere and move all over the place! We lay you on a blanket or may but you always roll off!

You say consonant sounds like dada, nana, and mama. 

You cut two teeth at 6 1/2 months!

You sit up so well!

You love to be held, but are very content to play on your own.

You love to jump and stand!

You love your swing (and it makes me sad that you are starting to outgrow it.

You love to go outside!

You still love your thumb, but now you also love a little security blanket too!

You love to laugh!

You love to be sung to!

You put everything in your mouth and chew on everything. You love our fingers, but you're not a big drooler. 

You can get things faster than anything. You are very interested in everything you see, including food.

I don't give you a lot of solids because you spit them up. You're still a professional spitter upper! ;)

You eat and sleep well! You sleep from about 8-7 or 8-8 right now. 

You're wearing 6 month clothing and some 9 month...although it's a little big. 

You don't take your eyes off your sister!

Oh, you are just a joy and the most precious thing to us! Our hearts just melt when we watch you and MC. You're our Anna Claire Elizabeth, our sister bear, our baby sister. 

Mexico Beach and the Fourth!

We went down to Mexico beach for a few days to celebrate the Fourth of July and our nephews 9th birthday! MOlly Caroline has the best time with her cousins and absolutely loves sand! Anna Claire enjoyed the breeze, and Matt and I loved it but wish we could've stayed longer! Picture overload!
