Today the demons had it out for Halleigh.
She started the day by nose-diving out of the car onto the concrete busting open her lip and scraping her face raw.
Then she ended the day by stepping on a nail that went straight through her shoe and about an inch into her foot. How it didn't poke out the top, I don't know. Luckily she is up on her shots, so crisis and shots were averted. Injury #1 at the at the house goes to Halleigh Jane Travis.
Poor kid, better luck tomorrow HJ.

I knew I had arrived, in Halleigh's eyes, when she looked up at me this morning and said, "Mom, you are the best ballerina mom in the world, I so so really love you." My cup runneth over.
We had such a great Easter; an Easter church reception, church service, and the annual Weinard Easter Party. It was A LOT of fun and we had two very tired children at the end of the day. I can't wait to see the annual picture that Chad and Ashley take of the party goers.
I think that Halleigh is in sugar shock today.
One funny story from the day: When we woke Halleigh up to get ready for church we were telling her that it was Easter and that we had a surprise for her in the dining room (her Easter basket). She wasn't really excited, so Miles asked her, "Halleigh do you know about what we celebrate for Easter?" She immediately brighten and said, "Yes, Jesus... hold on let me get my bible." She quickly turned to the Easter story in her Jesus Storybook Bible and I read her the Easter story. She sat there quietly and after she said, "Jesus is alive again," in the most matter of fact voice she has. Then we went to see the Easter basket... Miles and I turned to each other and laughed; we must be doing something right! She was more excited about the Easter story in the bible than the surprise waiting for her in the other room.

Due to a recent love of the PBS show Angelina Ballerina, we signed Halleigh up for ballet class, and she is LOVING it! We go 10 minutes early and she dances by herself before the other students get there. I have some video of the class that I will upload and show, but for now here is our little prima ballerina.

I love that Halleigh thinks that sugary cereal is Frosted Mini Wheats.
