Saturday morning Abby went to her regular gymnastics practice and we got the exciting news that she was "Graduating" her class and moving up to the 4 yr old class b/c she listens so well and follows directions. The rest of the kids just run meaninglessly in all directions. Abby stays w/ her couch and does as she's told, for the most part. The coach and I felt that she would benefit from being in a class where other's were following directions also, b/c now that all the kids are misbehaving she's being tempted to run w/ the kids. Also we're getting frustrated just sitting and waiting for the coach to have to round up these kids while she sits and waits for her turn patiently.

Abby and I left from class and went straight to Cleveland to meet up w/ Mom and Dad for lunch. We hung out a bit then Dad dropped Abby and I off at Dora Live, while he went for a walk downtown on the pier taking pictures of birds. Abby has noticed commercials for Dora for weeks, and each time she was like "I want to go there!!!!" We had fun, just us girls! Then back to Mom and Dad's for dinner.. .ummmm peace and quiet. Abby was such a good girl, and having the kids divided gave me a nice break from their constant fighting. It was a long day driving back home late at night, but well worth it.
