Ruby Deliciousness!

RUBY ROSE IS FLOATING AND SWIMMING!

So, it's been a long and painful road with Ruby learning to swim (shocker, I know).  She is finally doing something besides crying in the pool now.  Here is Ruby a week or so ago, working on her back float!

Yeah Rubes!!!!!

BCS Winter Concert

Last night was great fun watching Zoe in her first elementary school concert.

The school music teacher, Mr. Belles did a great job with all the kids.  It was an interesting concert...not what I expected.  He ran it more like what we would see if we sat in during his class...which was refreshing.  Pretty much the kinders just performed their songs but the older students, if they didn't get it right, Mr. Belles had them begin again.

The Kinders performed three or four songs...one in Mandarin.  I'll try and post the video I have but it was from too far away so I don't think you'll be able to tell but Zoe had lots of enthusiasm and knew all the words and hand motions.  She clearly enjoyed herself and it was super fun to watch her.

This is the Mandarin song if you are wondering why you can't understand what they are saying! :)

Morning at the library

Reading buddies program where kids get to read to specially trained therapy dogs. So fantastic! Zoe got smart on her second round in and picked a really challenging and long book so she could stay in there longer! :)

Birthday Present #1

Zoe sings happy birthday to me in Mandarin! :)
