No pie?

Reagan surprised me this morning when Jim offered her pie for breakfast. She looked at him like he had three heads and said "No, I want cereal". The pie thing didn't go over well at all. Odd. Maddy ate hers all up. :)

So she is sitting upstairs right now eating her cereal and watching Woody Woodpecker on  her iPad. It cracks me up because she loves the older cartoons that I used to watch. At least those are pretty tame.

My belle

For breakfast, my husband decided it was a good idea to give the girls pie. Hmmm. Maddy loved her little lemon pie. Not too surprising though. She ate it all up and enjoyed every bit.

When Reagan decided she didn't want it, Maddy was right there saying "can I have it?" Hee hee. No folks, we didn't give it to her. We aren't that bad.

Little Maddy wanted to go to the basement to play. So we did. For the first time since Christmas, she wanted to be Belle and not Aurora. So strange. She usually is so stuck on the pink dress. But I do have to say she looks really cute. I really wanted to take her and Reagan to the park this morning, but I think they are so scheduled, they really like to just stay home. :)

Kona Ice rocks

We decided to take a quick walk down to my parents house. When Jim went outside, he saw the Kona Ice truck. What a treat. So we grabbed some treats and walked right down with some extras for Mimi and Papa. What a fun surprise. We love doing that to them - just showing up randomly with the kids (and sometimes ice cream)

Allergic reaction?

Oh shoot. Maddy ate the mess out of some pickles tonight and her entire jawline up to her cheekbone swelled and turned red. I gave her some Benadryl and put some hydrocortisone cream on her face. It helped. Now I'm worried.

Mt. Olive pickles.

Clingy baby

Maddy really has had a bit of a hard time letting go of me in the mornings. It makes me feel so bad, but I know she has fun at camp. This morning was probably the hardest because she clung to me so hard the teacher had to pry her off of me. Boo. She wanted to stay with mommy. I might have to bug Mimi about watching her for a day.

Volleyball camp

Reagan did really well at Volleyball. She had been so excited about taking the class. I was actually surprised because she had gotten irritated that I signed her up for things like tennis and basketball. But volleyball was apparently okay.

Her coach said that by the last day, she was starting to do much better and getting the hang of some of the drills. She liked playing the games much better than working on the skills, but that doesn't totally surprise me. :) I love the fact that she tried something new.

Not tennis or basketball...

Reagan has been in two different sports camps now. Neither are her favorite. At least we tried. The first one was tennis. It is a bit tough for a six-year old, but we wanted to try it since the cost was so low. She did hit the ball a few times, but told us "no more" because she couldn't get it over the net.

I promised to take her out to the courts near our house to play with her. It just takes time. She didn't go for it. :)

Basketball was a bit of a bust too. She said "I don't like someone telling me to go play". I thought that was hilarious. My little Jim. Ha. She loves to be in control. But honestly didn't see her playing bball, so I didn't mind. I'm just glad she's trying.

But volleyball might be different. We will see. She has been excited about the vball camp all summer and it's next week. I am not holding my breath or anything, but it's cute to see her excited about it. I asked her why. She said "because I can hit a ball over the net and it bonks someone on the head" and just laughed. We shall see.

I do know that she still loves ballet. She is excited about classes starting up again this year. My little ballerina.
