Beach Vacation

My parents came back to Houston for a wedding, and came a few days earlier so we could see them too!  They rented a house on the beach and we joined them for a lovely time.  Unfortunately, I was sick with a NASTY upper respiratory infection that nearly prevented us from going...but, I was one and a half days into antibiotics and feeling like I could possibly manage it so off we went.  I did start to feel a little better as the trip went on, but couldn't sleep because of the horrid cough that accompanied my illness.  Nastiness aside, we had a grand time.  iXy needs more time with her grandparents because she was suddenly kind of shy and a little overwhelmed!  Good thing they get to come for a long visit in May!

ballet

Xaris loves her ballet class.  Technically, it's ballet and tap, but I think the ballet part is the only part that really counts for her.  She loves it.  And her teacher Miss Sarah is pretty fantastic.  It's not easy to get 3 year olds to pay attention and follow directions...unless you are Miss Sarah.

I have tons of photos and videos...but am having trouble figuring out how to upload my iphone videos to the blog.  If anyone has it down, I'd love advice!  This was the experiment...but I had to e-mail it to myself and download it from there, and it was shortened in the process.  Anyway, I'll keep trying to figure it out!
