Meet Spike

You can call him Spike, Spikey, Spikers, Sir-Spikes-A-Lot....really anything you want...he doesn't mind at all. This is our tortoise. He is our family pet. No really...he is a pet. The kids are learning responsibilities, such as:

• feeding Spike
• giving Spikers fresh water
• picking Spikey his favorite yellow flowers for snack time
• playing in a gentle fashion with Mr. Spike

This turtle has been a great project for the kids. I love watching them take care of their little guy! Maybe one day, if the kids beg really hard, and act really sweet they will get a pet upgrade to a dog :)

My Ballerina

See this little beauty??? She is a five year old ballet prodigy...well at least in my book she is!!! Every Tuesday this lovely little thing has dance class and she comes home singing, prancing, and dancing. I just absolutely love it!!! She actually has a recital in June...I can not wait to watch her dance on the BIG stage. Such grace, great poise....a natural....really.....

Okay....maybe she is a tad but silly too......I just love her!

Guess What....

My mom got a new camera...so the Hart Family Blog is back on!!!!!!!

A million years ago.....

Look at those faces....This was for Andrew's 1st Birthday! Miranda was 6 months old...aren't they the sweetest thing eve.r. I miss those days...and then again I am grateful for their current independence. Time is seriously flying by...Andrew is almost 6 and girl is about 6 months away from 5...

The highlight of Spring break

There were many fun things we did while we were at the beach for 7 days, but I would have to say my favorite thing was eating breakfast out on the hill and watching the kids play on the playground.  We would hop over our balcony grab our beach chairs and a table and enjoy coffee, ham and eggs, and the fresh air.  It was amazing!
My babies are growing up, last year they did not even attempt the pole or monkey bars...this year the pole was there favorite thing  and we tried the monkey bars but they are still too tough!
Payton loved the tire...the big kids would spin him till he was dizzy.....
Cheese mom!
My pretty pretty princess!

Disneyland!!!

Look at that excited face....it's as if he has been there done that one million times...Anyhow way back on spring break we had a little beach vacation and made our way to the magic kingdom.  In fact we even had a real life princess with us:
Yes, ladies and gentleman...I introduce to you the beautiful Belle!!!!
TA-DA!!!!!!!
Here's the crew on the train...that was my favorite ride....:):)
Disney is serious business people....
Ha, here's another excited face from Andrew...I know he had a ton of fun, I truly have no idea why I don't have any pictures of him smiling.  In fact we went on a ton of rides, ate at the Rainforest Cafe, and we even stayed till after ten....we closed the night with fireworks and the Small World ride....great fun!!!
