Jet Set Baby!

It's Vacation Time!!

As many of you already know, there are very few direct flights from OKC. So, that meant either take a connection (which Ballerina does NOT do well on) or fly from DFW. We chose the latter. 

We spent the night in Ardmore with Pappy & Tutu the night before we left to make the drive to Dallas a bit shorter. And, Tutu was flying with us so it was a no brainer!

On an elevator at the airport with Daddy!

 Brian thought it was ridiculous, but we got to the airport with about 1.5 hours to spare. I was thankful for this time. Ballerina needed to stretch those legs before we hit the clouds!!

Playing with Daddy & Tutu at the airport!!

Tickle Monster!!

Ballerina was a traveling champ! She slept most of the flight and giggled most of the time she was awake. (She might have tried to pull the hair of someone else but.. eh... no biggie!) I am so proud of my little jet setter!!

Recital Time in OKLA!

Unfortunately for Ballerina, we had to head down to Ardmore the day her Daddy was set to come home from his trip. It was the first day of recital week at SCD and that is NO JOKE peeps!

I packed Ballerina up and off we went!

 

I had rehearsal that night but when I got home... I found my angel!

 

And yes, I realize she was not exactly a performer in the recital... but it was her first recital. Sooooo...

I happened to make sure she got a cast shirt!

 

 It was an exhausting week. BUT... the show was amazing (as always) and my Ballerina was fabulous!!

Daddy Goes Fishing!

So back the first week of May, Brian, his brother and some guys took a camping/fishing trip. This left Ballerina and I home alone. 

This meant we did a lot of picture taking and sending Daddy updates!

 

One of our babysitters discovered that Ballerina is a big fan of self portraits! It seriously could occupy her for hours.

 I go away a lot, and Brian is always sending me cute videos and pictures. 

So... I attempted to get the same for him. Hahahaha.

While Daddy was away, I thought it was a good idea for Ballerina to begin learning some household chores...

 We practiced our ballet with a chair...

Daddy even sent us a picture to prove that Yankee boys know how to catch fish! 

One thing I didn't count on while Daddy was away... being SOOOO TIRED! We had to make some very early morning Starbucks runs still in PJs! 

And... when someone (maybe it was Mommy) couldn't sleep, we watched some Disney Jr and cuddled.

It was exhausting but I really did enjoy my 5 solo days with Ballerina!

Can you say BOOOOOMER?

One day this spring... who knows when, we took a little campus walk. 

Just so happened that we went to the stadium, as we do a lot, and Ballerina was able to "run" in the tunnel like the players do! 

Please ignore my voice!!

The practice field was looking beautiful! Seriously, this makes me giddy.

We did some stadium walking. Ballerina took a big interest in the rope that works the net for field goals. 

 

Oh, my favorite people in one of my favorite places. So happy to call this place home!
