The Hall Family: September: A Month of Firsts

Lauren had her first dance class on the 7th. She was so excited to dance and meet new friends. On the way, we had a little chat about how we have to listen to the teacher and follow directions. As a teacher, you know I had to have the talk. I have to say...she did REALLY well. During the class, the parents were not allowed to stay. I was able to watch her from another room without her seeing me. It was so cute to see her interact with the other girls and dance to the music. Since it was a trial run she was not in the usual dance attire. Since then we have bought all of the necessities...in pink I might say!

Her pre-dance poses!

Lauren and I spent Labor Day weekend in Raleigh. We visited Aunt Bebby, as Lauren would say. We had a fun filled weekend. We visited the Flea Market, Crabtree Mall, K&W Cafeteria and the Marbles Kids Museum. We also had some fun in the sun at Aunt Bebby's pool. On the first day, she enjoyed the little kiddie pool. On the second day, we ventured to the "big pool." I wish everyone could have seen her face when she realized she could touch in the 2ft end. The water was up to her chin but that did not stop her from bouncing up and down and saying, "I can touch. I can do it by myself!" There were a couple of times she would intake some water but she would spit and say, "I'm ok with a big smile." The weather was beautiful and the time spent was enjoyed! Here are a few pics from the museum. Lauren LOVED IT!
