Sleep Tight!

Tomorrow is Bella's 4th birthday party. She's been counting down the days since Monday! (Which was her actual birthday).  I took Bella and Jessica shopping Tuesday and then lunch..sort of a girl's day out!  Bella loves to go shopping!  She picked out several cute outfits, shoes, hair accessories, etc.  She picked lunch at Olive Garden (good choice!).  We had such a great time.

Thursday Bella had swimming lessons with Courtney.  She did very well  getting her nose in the water and blowing bubbles....so much so that Thursday evening she actually put on goggles and went underwater!!  Today she actually swam underwater for a brief moment! She swam for Mommy and Daddy tonight, but didn't want to go under the water. She'll do it another time. Don't want to rush something and make her nervous or scared.  

Bella spent the night Thursday..love it when she stays over.  She asked if she could eat at LoneStar (loves their chicken tenders and fries)..so we headed there for dinner. She received several compliments on her polite manners! (Makes you proud!!)  I know the time will come when she won't be quite so excited about staying over (and I dread that!) so we take advantage of every time she wants to stay! I love her little "Love you Grammy and Papa. Sleep tight and sweet dreams!" 

  

Danny finally had the opportunity to see "The Phantom of the Opera".  He and Bella had a great conversation about the play! They discussed various scenes and songs! So cute. She told Daddy tonight at dinner that "Uncle DanDan enjoyed it"! 

Pizza time!
