This fall has been extraordinarily busy. I am not complaining. Life here is full and happy. The kids are doing great. Chloe started gymnastics and Colin joined the Cub Scouts and is playing tennis...so we have been on the run. School is going really well for Colin. He loves his teacher and is enthusiastic about learning, of course.

A few Saturdays ago, Chloe had a day full of first. I have been meaning to post these pictures.

Her first day at gymnastics. (Colin acted as our photographer. He did a great job!) She loved being in the class but had little desire to participate. As you can tell from the pictures, we "participated" from a distance. We began the class with songs, which included a "marching" song. Once Chloe mastered the march, she proceeded to march for the rest of the hour. I am happy to report that she has become more involved each week. :)



We then headed out for our first haircut. She is such a diva. She knew exactly what she was there for and had no issues with having it done. She loved every moment of it...such a girl.



And, finally...her first lollipop! yummy! By the time we got home, she was a beautifully sticky mess.
