Week 187 and Week 99.5 - Capoiera Performance and Halloween Pictures and the Dreamworks Gang

Sorry I am so terrible about getting this post out this week.  Matt was out of town for most of the week and then I went out of town on Thursday for a day - needless to say it has been crazy.

I will let the pictures do the talking - but a couple of cute things from the week:

Charlotte had a cute Halloween event at TIS.  We parents got to hang out with our kids for a while.  She loved her awesome costume!  I am glad she struts her stuff and does not suffer from terminal shyness around her friends.

Sophia had her first Capoiera performance last Saturday.  It was cute.  I got terrible photos.  Charlotte did a back bend over a ball on stage!  Her first performance!

Charlotte folded her hands yesterday and said 'come on (as in your are pulling my leg)'.  So now she is learning colloquilisms!  From whom we are not sure.

Sophia has ditched her sleep sack and now intermittently sleeps with socks on.

As a test run for our Disney visit on Monday, we went to Sands Cotai Central to meet the Dreamworks characters - Charlotte was a sweeping success and Sophia was scared!  O how the world has reversed.  Not sure how well the Minnie Mouse meeting will go on Monday...

OK pictures!

I love this little boy's face!

Terrible shot - but this is Char on the ball:

Uncle Rob came to support Char.  He got the girls nice gifts.  Thanks Rob!

Waiting for Daddy at the airport:  He was in town for 10 hours on Sunday before travelling out again!

Dreamworks characters!

I am wearing this shirt at Sophia's request:

I don't know these characters' names - sorry Suelika!

Sophia got these cool espadrilles from Grandma and Grandpa in the mail this week.  Aren't they flash?
