Mommy Daughter Date

By -

Olivia and I went on our first Mommy Daughter date to  watch some Russian Folk dancers at the Tchaikovsky Concert Hall.

All bundled up and ready to go!

 
Getting to our  seats.

Cheese!

Mommy another picture!

 Before the dancing started I heard in English No Flash photography! Don't worry I'm a rule follower.
 I turned my flash off!








 
I didn't care for this dance but the ladies had very entertaining  facial expressions.




Olivia's favorite dance was a guy who danced with a plate. He danced the plate up to the tippy top of his head and back down his back.






Wish I could shake it like these ladies!




Loved the dresses!

 


Gangnam  Style?

This looked like to kids fighting. It was only one guy in costume!

 The last dance was a traditional Russian dance and by far one of my favorites!



This guy was really high in the air!
  





 




  


Clapping. The end. So we think.
On thing about every performance I have been to in Moscow is that the clapping is an experience! They seem to love to clap! Felt like we clapped for everything! I loved it!





Encore!

Yesterday I had my first OB appointment. Well it was my registration and physical. I have been so sick :( I had an ultrasound and the best part was that Mike and the kids were there! We saw the baby moving around. We even got to hear the heartbeat! We are calling this baby SPECK. I found out about a month ago in the Emergency room. I had a cyst rupture and my blood work showed I was pregnant. It was way too early to see anything though. Mike and I are excited. The kids are hoping for a little brother so we can have the same number of boys and girls in our family. On December 16 I will meet my doctor. The midwife told me that at 20 weeks I would go in every 2 weeks. She said I would have at least 3 more ultrasounds and at 28 weeks I would need to start coming in twice a week. We live in Stafford and the closest MTF is Dewitt at Fort Belvior. It looks like this pregnancy is going to be a real adventure for sure!

A Big Snow

Oh what did the new year bring? Snow and lots of it. My kids loved it! Me 19 weeks pregnant with Mike gone to BNOC (Army school) not so much. David and Olivia were just too excited. I was waiting for the snow to stop but, it didn't look like that was going to happen any time soon. I let the snow get way to high for our little Lexi. She much more preferred the view from the porch.

Wow, I can't believe that Spring Break was the last time I posted something! We have had so much fun during the year here in Moscow. I have taken lots of pictures and it's about time to get some things on the blog! So, let me start with today. Today we ventured off the compound to Sokolniki Park. It was so worth the trip!  We carried with us a sled and some ice skates. Everyone had on several layers as it was 26 degrees Fahrenheit when we left the house. (Which was way warmer than it had been!)  We took our 4 kids on the crazy Moscow metro. Of coarse I had to hold Jacob because he would be trampled in the crowds. We smush our way on to the metro and right away people are insistent that we take a seat. Every time I get on the metro with a my children someone performs some act of kindness! I think with this many children you need it! We finally arrive to our destination and ....Wow! The walk up to the park was on a little brick street. Mike and the k...
