Cheerleading

Noodle is taking a cheerleading class. This morning, she and her partner in crime from class showed off their moves for us. It went:

Shake to the left,
Shake to the right.
Stand up!
Sit down!
Fight! Fight! Fight!

Incredibly cute when done by two two-year-olds. Next time, I will catch it on video!

Walking to School

Today was the fourth day of first grade, but the first day it was not raining, so we walked to school! It was great. Squash galloped ahead of Noodle and me (she rode in her stroller), then would wait for us, then would gallop ahead again. For the fourth straight day, he didn't even say good-bye. He already has a posse of boys he meets up with and plays Legos with at before-school care. School is going great.

We're thinking of signing Noodle up for soccer. They do a little kid soccer class at her school. Squash took it when he was 3, and she seems to love watching soccer practice/games and playing in the yard. However, she does not want soccer to interfere with her dance classes. Right now she is taking cheerleading and she loves that. So we will see!

Worrying

In case you hadn't noticed, all posts on this blog were removed a couple weeks ago. A friend posted an article on her Facebook page about a woman whose baby's pictures were stolen from her blog and used as "marketing materials" for selling babies! She posted it with the warning "To all the mommy bloggers out there." I thought about it for, oh, about three seconds, and then deleted all the pictures and posts on my blog. Overreaction? Probably. But I didn't want *my* kids' pictures being used for nefarious purposes. Just wanted to let everyone know - I will probably return at some point and perhaps just not post pictures of the munchkins (only hilarious anecdotes).
