What a Week!

Last week held a lot of "firsts" for the Diva house. First day of pre-school, first dance class, first day of Sunday school, and first time Momma Diva realized the "baby" days are gone.
Rebecca went to her pre-school on Monday and Wednesday and had a great time. She wakes up every morning asking if it is a "school" day. I kept having second thoughts about enrolling her, but now I am so happy I did. Her teacher, Miss Brenda, is sweet and enthusiastic about teaching. They have been doing crafts, playing outside, and today got to meet a sand crab. Rebecca has spoke of nothing else but "Justin's sand crab" since she got home from school today!

Rebecca began her ballet classes on Thursday, and she looks so cute in her ballet gear. When I tried it on her she was prancing around and pointing her toes..... we may have a natural on our hands!

Friday was our "day off". We had no school, no dance, nothing! Having such a busy schedule is making me appreciate the downtime.

Sunday started the CCD season and Rebecca had her first bible lesson at church. She has to sit in the church for the first 10 minutes and then goes back to class, which concerned me, since I am the cantor and can't really do much to "discipline" her if she ran around or spoke, etc. She did great and sat in the front row, about five feet from me, and was quiet and very well behaved. A couple friends of mine in the parish kept an eye on her, just in case!

So between Monday and Wednesday pre-school, Thursday dance, Wednesday choir, and Sunday church, we Diva's are keeping pretty busy! We still manage to find time for Target runs and the like!

The Happenings...

Writer's Block still fully formed in my head, I will give you a brief list of the "happenings" in Diva land....
*Diva Rebecca is officially registered for pre-school. In diva-mom terms that means I have cold, hard, cash riding on the fact that I can get her little ass potty trained by August.
*DH's b-day was Monday, but we celebrated over the weekend. Celebrations included a large cookie cake from the GAC.... it was fabulous. I never thought of myself as a cookie cake fan, but I have been converted. On a related note, my waistline has been converted to a larger size...
*DH and I bought tickets to go see Joel McHale in Louisville in June. I have a fantasy that includes me following him around his tour like a dead head.
*Choir at church has been keeping me busy. Our director quit two weeks ago and I have taken over the job. The pay sucks, but it is a lot of fun, and I really enjoy all of the people in our group.
*Sarah has added a new phrase to her list: anytime you say "Hi, Sarah!" she responds with, "Hi, Sa-wah!". It is really quite cute. I make her say it a few dozen times a day.
Well, off to make breakfast, do dishes, etc. Be back soon!
