I am not old by any means, but as a kid I remember adults saying how "time flies" by. I know I am getting older because this is becoming more and more true. I can barely keep up with each passing month of my little guy's life! I hope I am giving enough time, attention, and pictures as Reina had. I need to be on the show "Hoarders" when it comes to pictures of Reina....quite embarrassing. At least she'll have plenty to choose from when she makes her wedding video! Well, lately I have been devoting most of my posts to Baelor so I thought I'd remind everyone that I do still have a daughter and she still does get a lot of our attention. Reina is such an expressive girl. I really can't put into words how captivating she is. Somehow she can just draw you in. Is it her big, brown eyes? Or her loud voice that can carry over a crowd? Or how you don't expect such expressions to come out of a little three year old? Kids say the darndest! It seems that no matter where we go, she gets an unusual amount of attention from adults and fits right in with any kid her senior. I say that if they needed a little person for a part in a show or commercial, she'd fit the part to a "T". She really is a much better actress than myself, and she will copy exactly what you want her to do or say. Reina is such a little character...she understands humor. Just thinking of some of the things she does or says makes my insides giggle. Since the weather has turned warm and sunny, Reina has mastered blowing bubbles. The other day she was outside blowing them and the wind blew hard enough to create a bubble all by itself. Reina said, "Good job bubble, you can go to my birthday party!" I know I sound like she is the perfect little princess...most of the time yes, but sometimes she does act like an adolescent teenager- major attitude. So after a meltdown she is back to her sweet and silly self. We really just carry on normal conversations with her and she responds often much older than her age. I giggle at this.

In April she took a dance class preview...only once a week for a month (as I had a couple Tuesdays off of work). It was a combo of ballet, tap and tumbling. I'm not quite sure what all the french poses are called as I never took ballet, but she said that of the three ballet was her favorite. Some favorites were doing the arabesque, twirls down the room while arms form a "bubble", and of course somersaults. She did great at participating and trying. Was she the best in the class? No. Did she attempt everything? Yes. I'm just happy she wasn't a Grumpelstiltskin. I'm not going to force her to dance because I love it. She can try whatever she wishes. I just know that she really does have a natural talent since she has great rhythm and body control. We'll try again when I can really commit to it. I snapped a few photos:
We got lucky and just love her to pieces!
