Delicious!

It finally feels like we're settling in, and activities are in full swing. Two weeks ago, Isaiah began his soccer journey; although, I'm not quite sure just how long the journey will be. Zay seemed to be more interested in telling the coach that someone else had the ball than he was in actually trying to get the ball himself. He made a few field-length runs with the herd of other three-year-olds, but I'm not entirely sure he knew why he was running. He had a lot of fun, and so did we. His Gran came to see his last practice/game, and that made for a very happy boy. :)

Last week, Zay began the Baby Steps dance class at Moving In the Spirit, which is an AWESOME dance company that teaches children about self confidence, expression, leadership and movement. The parents were able to stay for the first class, and it was incredible. The teachers (Ms. Sharon and Ms. Lily) are awesome, and the program is exactly what Zay needs at the exact right time. We've recently found it difficult to get Zay to follow physical instructions because he just doesn't seem to know what to do with his body. He also LOVES to dance so this is the perfect outlet. As you can see from the video, the boy can't stop moving. He immediately asked when he could come back to dance class so it's a success. This program lasts throughout the entire school year, and the whole company performs a big show at the Rialto, which is sure to be fantastic.



Camilla has been talking up a storm lately, and killing us with her simultaneous cuteness and craziness. She has a shrill scream that can be terrifying, but she's super cute when she starts putting words together. She participated in her first 5K last Saturday when Josh ran with the stroller at the East Atlanta Strut 5K. Josh said she didn't crack a smile the entire time, but she told me she had fun going fast. Her newest word is "delicious," and it's pretty cute.



Tyler is doing really well, too. He's almost sitting up by himself, and I think he would be by now if we would practice with him a bit more. Poor third child. He's eating solids and trying out sippy cups. He's mostly an easy baby, but he's been teething for the past week so he's been a bit grumpier than usual. Fortunately, he's sleeping almost all the way through the night. :)



I think that catches us up a little bit! Oh - and Zay's music picks for the week are: Drake's "Forever" and Enrique Iglesias' "Baby, I like it."

Cheers!
