Future Pianist....

I've been trying to get Jenna interested in the piano...I know this might be premature (since she's only 10 months old) but I want her to have a love for music so that I don't have to force her to take piano and voice lessons.

When I was young I took piano lessons and once it got hard I decided that I didn't want to do it anymore (horrible mistake), however, I was young and completely incapable of making (big) decisions like that.


I can play chords and read (music) some, but it's somewhat difficult and I am kinda stuck at the level that I left off (which isn't great). I would love to be able to play better, so I have started to teach myself again (not making much progress)!
Also, my Mother REALLY wanted us to take voice lessons, but I was too embarrassed to try (I was 10!)! Needless to say, I REALLY wish my Mom would have MADE me take them, I would love to have had professional lessons!
So ALL that to say this......
We spend our day singing around that house, and anytime Jenna even so much as POINTS to the piano I go open it up and sit down so that she can play!
So yesterday, Jenna was crawling all over the house and went straight for the PIANO!!!!!!
She climbed up on it and was trying to play the keys!!!!!
Of course I got pictures!





This was her once I opened the top and she was playing as much as she could!



Concentrating!


So cute....my little Pianist!

Fun in the sun....

Today we have been super productive....but we took some time to chill in Jenna's pool too!
Now I usually have Jenna in a super cute pink swim suit topped off with a bow, however, all of her swim suits are drying so she just sported the (Little Swimmers) diaper today! And to add to the NON-girliness I had her wear a BLUE hat! This is a "mommy-no-no" if we were to be out in public, but at least we were in our own backyard...and c'mon she's IS wearing her new PINK polish!!!!



We LOVE hanging out together!!! I LOVE my job!

Pink polish!!!

Well of all the super fun and girly things you get to do with a little girl, one of the OMG! girl moments is..... "NAIL POLISH!!!!!"

I know Jenna is only 10 months, but I couldn't resist! Here is her picture of her first time to get her toenails painted.....PINK!!!!!!






Aren't they beautiful?!? I love my little girls feet....
