This past week Big Sister attended a Princess Ballet Camp near Panama City. Grams graciously hosted us for the week (she's the one who told us about the camp), and Big Sister spent her mornings in the ballet studio and her afternoons at the beach. Tough life, huh? She loved the ballet camp, which was her first introduction into the world of dance. In addition to learning the basics of ballet, they also completed several craft projects, and Big Sister made some new friends that she hopes to see again at camp next summer.
Little Bud wasn't so sure about the beach; he wasn't a fan of the sand or the waves. By the end of the week he seemed to tolerate both a bit more and a few times he even looked like he was having fun.
John came down on Friday after work and both of the kids were so happy to see him! Big Sister had a blast with him on Saturday, playing in the waves, building castles and taking out the ocean kayak. Little Bud even seemed to enjoy the beach more with Daddy around :)
On Sunday, Grams and Papa headed back home with both kids, so that John and I could enjoy a few days of rest and relaxation. The beach is so much more relaxing (even if it's not quite as exciting!) without 2 kids to chase around!! Thanks to Grams and Papa and Grammie and Papa Jack for taking such good care of Big Sister and Little Bud for us!
Within 5 minutes of arriving at the beach, this girl was headed for the sand!
Aunt Jamie was a trooper and took both of the kids for a bike ride the first afternoon.
Aunt Jamie was a great help all week with both kids! I tried to talk her into being our
full time nanny, but for some reason she didn't seem interested ;)
ready for ballet camp!
he was a much bigger fan of the "baby pool" than the "beep" (his word for "beach")
