My Fall Classes: ballerina & ice skating

I'm doing Teeny Tiny Dancers and Ice Skating again this fall. Here are a few clips of my Saturday morning activites. DiDi gets to do Kick it Up Soccer with Daddy... will get video later.




Talking with DiDi



Doing Yoga

At preschool, we do Yoga every week. I've shown DiDi how to do some moves. He really knows how to do "Downward Dog". Mommy thinks its hilarious that we are tumbling around the living room like this.







Hamming it Up with my Kaufus, Uncles A and R

Whenever my Kaufus come over, we have a lot of fun.











Hallowe'en Class Pictures

This is DiDi's Hallowe'en gymnastics class.















This is my preschool class. We went to the pumpkin patch and had a big Hallowe'en party.

Hallowe'en - Part 2, the Night Trick or Treating

Hallowe'en at night was even better. I gave out treats all night! We put out our pumpkins and waited for the kids to come. DiDi actually picked out all the lollipops and glow bracelets out of the treat bowl.... he meticulously put them into his empty pumpkin.

We gave out 900 pieces of candy and 150 glow sticks. It's super busy around our place.


Daddy carved my favourite, Hello Kitty!











I dressed up quite warmly before going out to trick or treat. Somehow, putting on a fairy costume over jackets, boots and hats doesn't seem the same. DiDi truly became a bat or fruit fly in his blue jacket.





We ended the night at Ingrid and Toby's house, for an evening Hallowe'en party. Thanks for the invite! We were soooo tired. Good thing that school was cancelled on Monday. It was a Pro Day. I guess the teachers didn't want to deal with our over-sugared, over-tired little selves. :D Until next year!

Hallowe'en - Part 1, Party at Gymnastics

What a busy day! Our gymnastics centre had a big party for Hallowe'en. All my coaches were there, dressed up and ready to help us play. The entire floor was converted to a giant castle with padded walls and bouncy floors. All the trampolines and trapezes were open for the kids. Mommy called it a "all-you-can-scream-party"



















We were so excited to get here. I'm a fairy and Didi is a flying pumpkin. Or bat, or fly, or a Wizard of Oz flying monkey. Mommy wasn't sure. He wouldn't put on any of our other costumes. He was only OK with these black wings -- Mommy made them in 5 minutes with pantyhose stretched over another set of my fairy wings. I guess because he saw my pink wings and wanted to follow suit.


































There was a photo station where we got our pictures taken. I think we were tired, hence they could snap the photo. There was an ice cream station! I got DiDi's scoop. He got the gummy berries.




















There was a water station with lots of little ducks. See how I lined them up out of the water?








Daddy found his own entertainment while we ran around like Energizer Bunnies. After the ice cream and juice break, we went back to the bouncy castles and jumped/ran/fell/screamed until it was time to go home for a nap. What awesome fun!




Hallowe'en Face Painting

I'm playing with a new set of face paints. You like? DiDi certainly liked hopping around, but no face paint for him. He was willing to dress up as a pumpkin.
