Last night Rory was challenging us--I can't even remember what about....Sammy was threatening her--if she didn't straighten up he was going to make her bottom red. She told him "No, it needs to stay white!"

Christmas program at school

Rory's preschool had a Christmas program. All the kids sang songs. I was pretty impressed with Rory. She stood up at the front and actually sang some songs. She seemed to be the most still 2 year in her class. She kept her eye on me the entire program and was very sure she made her teacher know where I was too.

Rory's Dance Performance

Rory had her first dance performance Friday night at the Round Rock Family Christmas night on Main street. She and all the other little girls in her class did excellent! When we first got there, we were running late, and I think the large crowd overwhelmed her. When we first walked up to the "backstage" she looked at me and just started to cry. I tried to calm her down, reminding her to she was going to get to dance on stage like Hannah Montana. Once she settled down and got comfortable with her surroundings, she couldn't wait for her turn. All the girls stood up on the "stage" and did their dance and there was no crying. The moms in the class, myself included, just knew someone would cry. At one point in the dance, they run around and flapped their arms like they are butterflies. Rory yelled out "Look, I'm a butterfly." It was really cute. I don't know if anyone else really heard or paid attention, but Sammy and I both thought it was great. We were really proud of her getting up there and dancing on her own. I think she was proud of herself too.
