Chloe is one busy girl this week! We had our ballet dress rehearsal this week, and I am so surprised at how much Chloe has improved over the last few months with listening to the teacher and participating in class. We just joined a real gymnastics class that Chloe loves. Since she has so much energy and loves to jump off our couches, we thought it would be good for her. We went to the park a few times this week since the weather has been beautiful and finally had some friends over for a playdate at the end of the week. The kids painted placemats and we made homemade butter. Chloe had her recital this week which was so adorable. She made us very proud of her:) Check out the video: Dance Recital Video The quality is not the best, but she is the one on the end. We took her to Chuck E Cheese to celebrate after and out to lunch. Today was the start of some of the holiday festivities around San Diego. We took Chloe to the Santa Parade and Tree Lighting at the mall near our house. They even had fake snow...not quite the same as Rochester:) Chloe is really excited for Christmas to come this year because she knows that she will be getting presents. She knows that someone named Santa will be bringing her a gift this year if she is a good girl. We asked her what she wants and she says that she wants a baby doll, even she has 6 of them already. We are definitely sad to be missing Christmas in Rochester this year, but we are looking forward to celebrating Christmas morning with Chloe in our own house. More holiday festivities to come!
