Being a princess is hard work

Princess Noelle is quite a girl. Some days she's very quiet and just plays with her dolls, but others she's a chatty Kathy and won't stop telling you stories, asking questions, and wanting to have an adventure.

Noelle is doing great at preschool. She's learning quite a bit. Of course, she already knows her letters and numbers. But she's starting to write a bit more and doing very well with things like patterns, more and less, and opposites. Noelle loves to learn and is very inquisitive. One of her favorite activities is reading her new Zoobooks magazine every time it comes in the mail. We'll read the magazine front to back before bedtime and she just loves discovering new things about animals.

Noelle has been very into her dance class. They danced at the mall in December and had their Winter recital in January. You can see the pictures in the December photo album. She's made quite a few friends at dance class namely Corinne, Riley, Kirsten, Cassidy, and Jamie. She loves to see all the other kids each week. This summer, her class will be dancing at Idewilde Park so everybody should come see her.

The favorite activities of the month are dress up, playing My Little Pony, playing with Playdo, and playing with Barbies. She's very much a girly girl wanting to wear a princess dress or ballerina outfit most of the day.

Noelle also can have a diva attitude when she's not getting her way. Mommy has gotten a 'humph' and a hand on the hip more than once. Beyonce, look out!

As far as things Noelle is looking forward to: Aunt Bethany's Wedding. Noelle was practicing walking down the aisle today. Grandma got her to not dance to the music which will be a good thing. Don't worry, we'll have lots of pictures!!
