Tessa's First Choir Concert

Tessa had her first choir concert. She loved learning her songs for it and sang them around the house frequently. David and I definitely got the songs stuck in our head, but it was cute to watch her practice her choreography and listen to her sing around the house. It was really neat to see how much she enjoyed it and how excited she was to perform with her class. She asked me nearly everyday how many days there were left until the "Christmas Sing" for the 2 weeks leading up to the concert. Here she is practicing one of her songs at home.

Here she is performing with the rest of the first graders at her school. All the parents were excited to get videos of the performance so you'll see other parent's phones in my recording - LOL.

King and Queen

    Jenny's favorite thing to play at the moment is this game she made up called "King and Queen". It's this cute mash up of 'dress up' and 'house'. Generally, she'll want to play it first thing in the morning. So it starts with Jenny getting all dressed up to be the Queen. She has to put on a Princess dress, slippers, a crown, and jewelry which will usually include a few bracelets, a few rings, clip on earrings, and necklace. Then she'll sit at her vanity and do her make up.

Once she is all dressed up, she'll tell me that I'm the King and we'll get married which is super cute or sometimes we'll already be married and she'll find some dolls to be our babies and we'll take care of the babies giving them bottles. When Tessa plays too, she plays as our baby or older kid or sometimes as our royal kitten. I think it's super cute how much Jenny loves dressing up.
