First Competition

Olivia had her first practice competition this weekend and did great!  She has improved soooo much and still loves her sport.

 

And some videos.  Bars:

I didn't get a video of vault.  This is a practice meet, so she just got a range of scores and they were all 9.0 - 9.5.  Anything above a 9 is great at this level.  Yay!

 

Paige also started a ballet class.  How cute is this:

 

 

Life is getting busy!

 

 

Birthday girl and first day of school

Olivia woke up on her birthday to presents and balloons:

 

Paige had a hard time watching Olivia open presents, ha!  We met one of Livi's friends from school at Pump It Up and let the girls burn off some energy.  Then Olivia took her birthday money and we went to the pet store.  She specifically asked for money to purchase a hermit crab, but when we got there, she fell in love with a teddy bear hamster.  Meet Teddy:

 

He seems to be a really sweet hamster and hasn't bitten anyone yet, ha!  We have to really watch Peach, though, who is a quite accomplished hunter and is very interested in watching Teddy.

How in the world is this sweet girl already 7?!

 

The next day was the first day of second grade for Olivia and the first day of 2 day a week "school" for Paige:

 

 

I'm hoping Paige doesn't get kicked out!  Joking... kind of.
