New Shoes & Last Day of Music Class

Dean got a new pair of "big boy" shoes - some really cool Vans skate sneakers that he actually likes to wear (this is a first - he normally hates all shoes). They're still a little big yet, so it's so funny to watch him walk around in them. He reminds me of tourists at the beach walking around with their snorkel & flippers on!!!

Here he is checking them out....

Today was the last day of Music class this semester. Dean has REALLY enjoyed music, more and more each semester. We first started the classes when he was only 4 months old. It's been amazing to see him develop from just sitting there absorbing everything in the beginning to participating and making his own music now!! Here's a picture of Dean and his new girlfriend Ryanna snuggling with some Care Bears during the lullaby...

Dean, Teacher Kim and her son Evan (who is NOT happy). Dean was so cute this morning. He gave Teacher Kim a lei and a kiss and handed her a thank-you card (which he signed himself) to thank her for making Music class so fun!!
