Videos from Gymboree party

Fun with bubbles!
Allie in the barrel

Allie and Dane's 2nd Birthday party!!

The kids had a blast at Gymboree in Old Orchard! 

 Allie hugging Dane!  She is a lover bug.

 There was music!

 There was bouncing!

 There was the fun peek a boo game where the kids jumped on a ball inside of this barrel.

 

Allie chowing down her cupcake!  We made the chocolate frosting and vanilla cupcakes since those seemed to be the best combo from Claire's cupcake party.  (As I was making them, I kept thinking poor Lyssie and Granby.  They made so many of them and so many combos for Claire's party!  I'm sorry and thank you:))

We had 2 tables of kids.  Sweet sixteen little ones.  They were all so good!

 Pamma with her little loves.

 Messy, messy girl!

Claire asked me to take this picture of her with Nap.  We just got him a new bed (Matt is always making fun of me for that since he has a lot) and he was checking it out.  A bit small, but he likes it!

Allie explores Purdue!

Matt and I headed up to Purdue with the girls in early October.  Claire went to the game with daddy and the Welkes, so Allie and I did some exploring.

 Outside of PKA!

 She really liked watching the fountain and made friends with two little boys there.  They all ran around together for a few minutes of cuteness!

 All that she really wanted to do was to push the stroller.  Good thing that I had plenty of time to kill.

 The only thing better than pushing to stroller was dancing on the stage by the tailgate!  She had a blast!

 Pretty Allie girl!  She looks like she is wearing make up, doesn't she?!

A few close ups of Tinker Bell Claire!

Claire has been getting more into dress ups and I love it when she presents herself to me to show me how fancy she looks.  She has this look of pride that always make me smile. 

I learned to take more close ups, thanks to Pamma!  Now we can even see the little scratch on her nose!

Claire's first time at the dentist!

Claire did great.  She was actually "Princess Claire" according to the staff there. 

 The dental hygienist wanted her photo taken, she was pretty silly!

 All finished!  Claire does have an under bite, so she will need to get a device placed for 6 months to help with that.  We will probably have it done when she is 3 1/2 or 4 years old. 

 After the dentist, we went to meet up with Allie and Grammie at Woodfield.  I always let the kids get a smoothie!
