Dance Class

I am SO excited! This spring I decided I don't want to play soccer. I told Mom I want to take ballet class. So, Mom signed me up for dance class. It starts tomorrow. I cannot wait. The class teaches tap, ballet and tumbling. I really just wanted ballet but Mom said it will be good for me to see what the other two are like so I can decide which I like best.

Mom and I went out Friday evening and picked out a new dance leotard with tights and shoes. This is going to be so much fun. I'll post tomorrow after my first class to let you know how it went.

"Mom we are exploring"

Today we spent a lot of time out at our new house. They should start insulating next week. It is really muddy out there but my brother and I decided to explore the property. It was a lot of fun and we got really muddy. I cannot wait until we live out there. Hopefully next month at this time my new room will be painted!

CMV - Cytomegalovirus

A few days ago I broke out with a really bad rash. Mommy took me to the dr. We thought it could be an allergic reaction to the medicine I was on for the strep throat. My dr. thought it looked like a mono rash so they took some of my blood. It turns out I had Cytomegalovirus or (CMV). It's sort of like Mono. Sometimes when a person takes medicine with penicillan in it, it can cause a rash when it reacts with CMV. I guess that's what happened to me. I can have a blood test to see if I'm allergic to the medicine, but until that happens we are going to just figure I'm allergic to it to be on the safe side.

My throat still hurts

Today I woke up and my throat still hurts really bad. My mommy called the dr's office and they gave me a prescription for augmentin. I hope it works! They put grape flavoring in it and it tastes really bad.

Strep Throat

Guess what? I have strep throat. I've never had that before. The dr gave me some amoxicillin. This is my first antibiotic ever. I hope it goes ok.

Happy New Year

Happy New Year!!! Every year we go see a movie on New Years Eve. This year we saw the Yogi Bear Movie in 3D and we went to O'Charley's to eat. Then we came home and played games. It was a nice way to spend the evening.

Christmas!

Merry Christmas! This year Christmas was a little bit different for us. While I wish we were in our new house, we got to stay home this Christmas. Usually we are visiting Grandparents and Great-Grandparents on Christmas Day.

The weekend before Christmas we saw Papa Pooch and Great Grandma Dody.

This year on Christmas Eve at noon we went to Daddy's Uncle Gary's house for Great Grandma Thompson's Christmas. I had a lot of fun. I have a 2nd cousin Callie that I love playing with. I only see her once a year, but we get a long really well and I always enjoy seeing her. We are six months apart in age.

Christmas Eve late afternoon and evening we went to Papa Stew's and Grandma Marcia's. When we left Uncle Gary's house is was snowing...A LOT. Mommy was driving and thought we may just drop the gifts off and leave. We ended up staying until 7:00pm or so. It was a rough drive home. It normally takes us about 50 min. It took over 2 hours. The roads were really bad and in some spots Mom was only driving 20 mph.

Christmas Day we stayed home this year. This isn't something we normally get to do but we LOVED it. We stayed in our PJ's all day and played with the toys Santa left for us. The only downside was that we were in our 900 square foot rental house and not our new house, but next Christmas we'll be in the new house. Maybe we'll stay home Christmas Day then too...we'll just have to see. It was just really nice and we all had a great day together.
