RP continues to amaze me as she is getting SO big now. Her chunky baby face has now melted into a cute little pre-schooler face, and while she is still tiny for her age, I sometimes can't help but stare when I see her because a true little girl has replaced my toddler.
Summer was a busy, but fantastic, time. We spent as much time as possible outside swimming, playing, and bike riding, and had a lot of great outings with family and friends! RP completed her 3-year pre-school year at LA and moved over to a P-8 school for Pre-K. Crazily enough, she is going to the same school that I graduated from, which makes me feel both old AND proud at the same time! She LOVES Pre-K and comes home every day chattering incessantly about the new things she has learned. I think the best thing I did for her was enroll her in school every day, unlike last year when she attended pre-school only two days a week.
Fall has already been chock-full of fun stuff to do, with more on the way. RP and I took Nana up to the huge outlet mall to do back-to-school shopping, and my baby got her ears pierced the same day! She was the one who wanted them done, and she did not shed a single tear during either piercing! She also started ballet classes at a dance academy, which, when coupled with her gymnastics and ice skating lessons, makes her ONE busy busy girl! We were also able to attend three NASCAR races and one MLB game this year, and have our annual pumpkin farm visit planned for the end of the month with good friends. Then there are at least two more birthday parties to celebrate before the holidays are upon us, and they certainly are approaching fast!
Here's a flashback to our summer fun:
Splashpad fun in the Quad Cities
