DD had her first dance recital today too! I'm so proud, my super shy little girl actually put on a big smile and did her whole routine. I was expecting her to just stand there and look at the floor, maybe stick her tongue out occasionally. But she was probably the best kid out there, and that's not just me being biased.
I volunteered to help out backstage, and I'm exhausted now. It's like herding cats, cats covered in glitter, sequins, and feathers, who constantly need someone to help them out of their costume so they can go potty. I need a drink.
When I combed A's hair today I told him he was handsome and he said "no, pretty".
We went to the pancake breakfast at the park with the trains this morning, and a minor league baseball game this evening. It was a full, fun, crazy day. Also, my hips are tired from carrying 23lbs in an ergo.
The boys spent their first night sharing a room last night and A was a bit cranky as a result, but it's going ok so far.

DD has been hell on wheels most of this weekend, beginning Thursday with her first big public tantrum. She had picked out a little lip gloss at Walgreens, and threw it when I tried to tell her she didn't like to wear flip flops. Well, that doesn't fly so the lip gloss went back to the shelf. Cue tears and flailing.
She nearly broke her neck at Red Robin when she danced herself out of the booth and pretty much landed on her head. The judgemental murmurs from the table next to us were the icing on the cake, especially since none of them asked if she was okay.
