Chloe has other dancing skills too...

Okay, so I didn't post this before because I was embarrassed by my messy house. But she is just so cute. And I can now honestly say that since the kids have started school I have cleaned my house. :)

This is Chloe robot dancing, which she learned from watching the LXD on hulu.





If you haven't seen it yet, you should. We are hooked. (Robot Lovestory and Elliott's Shoes are our favorite episodes that we watch again and again)

Ballet afternoon

Chloe's ballet classes start up again tomorrow, and she's lucky that I got her new leotard finished just in time. I'm going to blog about it over on my sewing blog soon, but these are so cute Carl wants them here too so he can look at them at work. Why he doesn't read my sewing blog at work is a mystery to me :).

Anyway, Chloe decided to put on her new leotard this afternoon and brush up on her skills. She then convinced Carl to be her partner. I overheard her trying to convince him to go put on his church clothes (including shoes), but that was just too much. She had to settle for what he was already wearing, plus socks.

Connor tried to get in on the dancing too, but he kept knocking people over so I had to get him to help me in the kitchen instead.

Lobster Night

Last week my mighty hunter husband brought home dinner. It was lobster, yum. Lucky for him, he got to go on a  quick trip to the keys to get it. He didn't send me any picture of the beautiful views down there (bummer), but he did send me these:

Then he grilled them up for us. I wasn't going to take pictures of the kids eating,

But then Cadie was just too funny. I had been trying to feed her pieces of lobster off my plate, but she kept throwing them on the ground and reaching for the last lobster tail on the serving plate in front of her. After it had cooled off, we finally just let her have it so she would stop screaming. She was in lobster heaven.

Sunday Morning Video

The other Sunday morning, I was getting my YW lesson (about member missionary work) ready, and Chloe became really interested in the props that I was preparing. This is what resulted:

I love Connor's reaction, how he just sits there and fidgets, and then starts looking at the camera. Kind of like Jim.
