Mary Claire's Thanksgiving Recital

Erin, Charlie and I went to Mary Claire's Thanksgiving recital. So cute and Mary Claire was one of the kids chosen to introduce an upcoming song. She did a great job and was very brave speaking into the microphone alone in the middle of the stage! Afterwards we went back to her class and Charlie made herself right at home reading books.

Sloane

Sloane with two of her obsessions - Beau and her strawberry hat. It can be 70 degrees or 40 degrees, inside or outside - doesn't matter - Sloane wants to always wear her strawberry hat from Aunt Lynne and Uncle Tim!

Neighbor Nicole Reads To The Girls

Our neighbor Nicole read to the girls yesterday afternoon. It was an unseasonably warm day...perfect for outdoor storytime. Nicole read to the girls in English although they also love when she reads to them in French, too (although they have no clue what exactly she is saying.)One of my favorite things about Nicole - she has her front door painted the exact pink to match the gorgeous azaleas that bloom in her yard every spring.

Sloane Loves To Accessorize

Left on her own, Sloane loves to add her own extra special touch to her outfit. Her favorite - ponytail holders standing in for bracelets. She has also started bringing me her sisters' underwear and trying to take off her diaper if I don't get her dressed quickly enough.

Mary Claire shows off her new dress from her Aunt Erin and Sloane puts up with me taking her picture.
