Happy Father's Day!

We celebrated with some gifts for our favorite Dad and then by spending the day relaxing by the pool! We grabbed Jimmy John's and had lunch there.

Always fun to get the blue Italian ice!

Family selfie!

Heights

Since the girls are both growing like crazy, we wanted to do a height check. And since I thought I must be shrinking in my old age, I also measured myself. Not to be left out, we measured Matt, too!

Morgan = 5 ft 6 1/4 in (up from 5 ft 3 1/2 in last October)

Avery = 5 ft 3 3/8 in (up from 5 ft 8/10 in last October)

Matt = 5 ft 10 1/2 in (taller than he thought he was - ha!)

Stacia = 6 ft 3/4 in (same as I've always been... no shrinking yet!)

Avery's grown about 2.5 inches and Morgan's grown about 2.75 inches since their check-up in October.

Working on the back handspring

Avery is working on some tumbling skills in a class over the summer. They do a lot of strength training on their legs. She comes home complaining her muscles hurt! They started working on back handsprings more this week. She's hoping to get this by the end of the summer.

Don't leave your phone unattended :)

I'm always getting random selfies on my phone.

Bath time!

Milo got a bath at daycare the other day. It's hard to tell in this picture, but he looks so fluffy! I think it's about time for his summer hair cut!

Are you in a hurry?!?

I think we've hit the age where the kids do not want to walk with us. Ha! I noticed this more with Avery... little miss independent. She just takes off and walks ahead of me. And I am not a slow walker! :)

Official Recital Pictures

We got the recital pictures back from the photoshoot in May. She's in three dances for this recital - Acro, Jazz and Lyrical. These are for her regular classes (not the competition team). Next week is going to be busy! She has dress rehearsal on Tuesday from 3:00-9:00, the competition recital on Thursday, and two recitals on Saturday. The following Monday, they have dance team auditions for next season... and then she gets a break from dance for the summer until August! She is taking a summer tumbling class at Super CDA to work on some moves in case she decides to try out for cheerleading in the fall.
