First grade update

When one of the girls has a birthday, the blog tends to get a little heavy on that child. So to even things out, and to ensure the grandma's that this sweetie is still around, here's a picture to prove it. 
She's thriving in first grade, loving her new class and asking me each day to pick her up later so she can spend more time with her friends. 
She's reading chapter books and her writing her name in neat print. I'm over-the-top-excited that her new best classmate happens to be a super smart, very good reader and writer as well as a sweet girl.
Regan still enjoys dance classes and has been in an extra dance class the last few weeks as her studio prepares for the upcoming parade. She's also in gymnastics although is much less interested in this sport and is likely to finish out the session and hang up her leotard. We've discovered that swimming is a bigger interest, so we'll change directions. 
As for play time, she and Sidney adore their American Girl Dolls and it's really all we do around here besides play games. Toys are just not something Regan was ever interested in.
