Ballet recital
Last week was our last ballet class for the year. Mama was a little bummed we weren't allowed in the big girl recital with costumes and all, but we were able to have our parents and friends come watch our final class. I was especially proud to show everyone the Nutcracker and other dances I've been working hard on. Jilly was also able to show Daddy all of her hard work that she's been doing this year.
Enjoy our many photos and videos!

Spring things
Spring showed itself here in Seattle a little and we have taken full advantage! I got a new big girl bike and Jilly inherited by trike and we are on the move. Daddy found a great school playground/parking lot where we can practice and we've been going there a lot. We are also so excited because our new deck is done. We've been waiting for a long time to have stairs from the house to the backyard. Jilly and I can't keep off them, which makes Daddy nervous, but we love it. We also took a trip to the University of WA campus to see the famous cherry blossoms. It really was beautiful but I was very disappointed they weren't more pink like Mama told me they would be. I really love climbing trees and got a lot of opportunities to practice my monkey skills. Here is hoping for many more days in the sun!

Nina turns four
Nina here to tell you about my most amazingly awesome birthday celebration! It was such an exciting start when I got to go with Daddy to the airport to pick up my Granny, Grandpa Frank and Auntie Kerry. I was so happy they made the long trip to celebrate with me. We had a lot of fun especially going to Red Robin the night before my birthday to celebrate. When we left it was snowing which made it even more exciting.
On my actual birthday I woke up to lots of presents, snow and a fever. Mama and Daddy gave me medicine so I could get through my party. My party was a Sofia the princess theme, which I took very seriously. I wore my beautiful Sofia dress from my family and had a blast with my friends. The next few days were rough because I got really sick, but I was grateful I was able to make it through my special day! I'm already planning my next party.
Dancing dolls
We were so excited because Mommy and Daddy were able to come watch our dance class a few weeks ago! Here are the pictures:
Floridian Grandparent visit
We were so happy to have our Grandpa Richard and Grandma Jane come visit us back in January. It had been a long time since we saw them and loved having them out our house to share in all of our fun. We took a few trips including the Children's Museum and Snoqualmie Falls. It was sad to see them go and we hope we can get to Florida soon to spend some more time together.

Holidays delayed
Once again, big apologies for taking so long to post these photos from the holidays. We were so lucky to have Auntie Kerry come and spend Christmas with us. She took us ice skating for the first time and we enjoyed some snow play at a ski resort. Mostly we just loved having her here and showering us with attention and love. Here are some photos from our activities.

East Coast Thanksgiving
Mama apologizes for the delay in posts, she said she will try harder to update more frequently in the new year. Onto more important matters...we went to NJ for Thanksgiving and it was awesome! Jilly and I did very well on the plane, except for a few meltdowns, and loved staying at Uncle Benny's house in Jersey City. We got so much quality time with friends and family but always wish it was longer.
We spent a couple of days in NYC with Aunt Judi and Uncle Shel and that was really exciting. Aunt Judi took Thea, Jilly and I to a Berenstein Bears musical and then to Mama's favorite Jewish deli for lunch. We ate a ton of great food on the trip! In a few days Auntie Kerry arrives for Christmas and Mama says she will post those pictures much sooner than these.
