Today Natalie was supposed to dress as her favorite book character at school. She has a bit of an obsession with dolphins, so her favorite book is "Dolphon Diaries". She had requested a dolphin costume:

Natalie, the gymnast
After the class is done and everyone else leaves, the gym we are in is just too tempting. A big open gym floor just needs to be used for some gymnastics:
I know she's a little sassy towards the end of the video, but I think it's worth it to see her eyes light up with a big smile at the end. She asked me to record this video for her, so she could see herself - she wasn't planning on me posting it for the world to see...

Student council
This year was the first year that Natalie was old enough for her class to be represented in the student council. Natalie decided to run for the post. She had to make a poster, and she had to do a speach in front of the whole class. She didn't get enough votes to get the position, but I'm still so proud of her for trying! Her poster is in the picture below. By the way, her school colors are black and orange, WDP is an abbreviation for her school district, and the scary looking ghost is their school mascot (they are the Phantoms).
Natalie, the scarecrow
As usual, daycare had a Fall Fest. One of the activities was to dress up as a scarecrow - complete with straw hat and hay:
Time for fun.
Natalie had a friend over for a sleepover last weekend. The best sound in the world is hearing Natalie giggle with her friends - and they did a lot of that. In fact, they had the dress-up bin in full use before breakfast:

Natalie's teacher took pictures and made a really cool video out of the pictures:

Happy Halloween
Poptarts decorated with a jack-o-lantern, a spider, and a bat (with edible markers), and a jack-o-lantern apple (so we could pretend it was almost healthy...) |
I think it was a hit. |
Natalie was a monster, and Izzy was "Intelligent Girl" |
Going trick-or-treating |
Such explorers. |
