An angel in our household

December 14th, 2009 · 6 Comments · 2009, Christmas09, Dancing

Miss Jordan performed in her dance studio’s holiday recital and it was stinking sweet. The funniest part was how she stretched out one of the straps while she was waiting to perform, so she was VERY exposed. But that didn’t stop her from being very cute. Enjoy the video!!

If you can’t see it, enjoy the [...]

Can you feel the holiday spirit?

December 5th, 2009 · 2 Comments · 2009, Christmas09

We finally had a weekend to really kick the holidays in to gear…
First, we started the day off with a breakfast gathering where we got to meet up with Santa. One of the local high schools put this even together. It was super cool and the kids even got to write up their Santa List, [...]

Dancing with her helper arm

November 16th, 2009 · 4 Comments · 2009

Jordan is really listening at dance class these days – and I’ve seen her improve her balance with the help of her helper arm. But it’s also a little clunky during certain moves – like when she swings her arms out. She doesn’t really cognitively know if she’s going to bonk someone in the face. [...]

Dance class success

October 12th, 2009 · 1 Comment · 2009, Dancing, Prosthetic

Using Jordan’s helper arm at dance was a huge success… You can see in this blurry picture that she’s still reaching a bit to touch “hands” but her balance was so much better when she wore “bouncy hand” to her class. She also had no problem walking across the balance beam with it one. Last [...]

A dancing challenge

October 5th, 2009 · 1 Comment · 2009, Dancing, Prosthetic

Jordan loves to dance – and this year she’s taking a dance class that has a couple of performances in the year. It’s certainly a bit more intense from the sweet and calm version she took last year. So her dance teacher and I (who also happens to be a co-worker/friend) are trying to decide [...]

Some video moments of Jordan

August 31st, 2009 · 4 Comments · 2009, Dancing

She loves to dance. She can’t seem to stop dancing. It’s SO funny.
Here’s a moment when we were hanging out at the columns on campus.

Here’s a moment as we walked home tonight after running around and playing outside.

OH! And here’s an awesome moment last Friday when we took the kids to the St. Louis Cardinal’s [...]

Growing up… An end of an era

May 13th, 2009 · 1 Comment · 2009, Dancing

I know this sounds cheesy… But Jordan wrapped up her little dance class for the school year and I’m feeling a little nostalgic about it all. It was a small class that met on Thursday mornings since last September. She’s had a chance to learn the basics of dance, improve her balance and overall jumping [...]

Stage Mommy Pride

December 16th, 2008 · 2 Comments · Dancing, Mommy Thoughts, School, jordan

Yeah… We had another big dance performance for Jordan. It isn’t the Nutcracker (since we’re at a new school now) but it was a great experience anyway. Jordan did a wonderful job and I have to share the video for you to see:
