Sydney's beautiful makeover

So referring to the picture above, I was getting ready yesterday and the only way that ornery Sydney would sit and not whine was if I let her play with my makeup. This was the finished product. She almost got the eyeliner in the right place. She was so silly afterward when we were taking pictures. In one of the pictures I asked her if she could look at mommy so she turned to me closed her eyes, folded her arms and acted like she was praying. Well if she pretends sometimes maybe eventually she will actually pray and fold her arms when prayers are being said instead of laughing everytime somebody goes to pray. Well she is definitely silly. Things this week went really well. We thought that I would just be working Wednesday and Thursday, but I worked everyday this week, except for Saturday. It was a lot of fun and I am really enjoying it so far. Needless to say I was extremely sore because I haven't danced or stretched like that in a while. All of my girls are super sweet and for the most part want to work hard. The owner of the studio, Stacey, has told me that I've gotten a lot of positive response and I already have three girls that might be interested in doing private lessons with me. The money makes this job too good to be true. Nick just took his second pass or be fired test and passed with flying colors. He isn't getting cocky or anything because he still has to work his backside off to keep doing well. This isn't a slacker job. But then Nick isn't a slacker. We love our apartment and the community. Everyone is so nice it seems. Nick was in the grocery store the other day and somebody walked by him and said, "how ya doing today?" That never happens in Utah. All the people that I work with are so nice and sweet. And people actually have babies here. It's going to be fun to have playdates. Well enough of this chapter of our novel. Have a good week. We love you all

I love it... Sydney is such a girly girl already:) The picture is classic.

I'm so excited that dance is going well. It really motivates me to do something too:) Maybe we'll come out for your concerts!!!

That picture cracks me up. She is so silly! I especially love the caption 'tested on wild animals'. Too cute
