Actually, Poogie is the model. What began as a photo shoot for our hair stylist turned into a photo session for a local children's store. We showed up this morning for her photo session for our stylist and the owner of a new specialty children's store wanted her to model some of her clothes too.
Poogie was over the moon. She looked adorable in the fun funky outfits and really enjoyed all the posing and primping. What was shocking to me was the price of some of the outfits. The two she modeled were $70 each. I have to say I almost choked when I saw the price.
Poogie has lots of little girl friends that wear these special little outfits. They are cute and precious, but not worth the fortune that it cost to buy them. I don't see the need in paying up to $100 for one outfit for a child that will out grow it in a few months. It just seem crazy to me.
Poogie did receive a gift certificate for a few bucks off of a purchase of one of those expensive outfits for her modeling. I don't know if we will ever use it but she felt like she earned a paycheck for her "work". I will post some of the photos as soon as I get them. TTFN

What makes a father proud.
Donuts!
No not the kind you eat. The kind that your sweet innocent daughter can make in the dirt with her 4 wheeler. My hubby took the kids out riding this weekend in the wonderful new dirt in our back yard. The dirt was the result of the ugly pond being filled up in our back yard finally.
Dear hubby ran in the house to fetch me. "You've got to come and see your daughter!", he exclaimed. So I ran out not knowing what to expect. Low and behold there she is cutting a perfect donut with her 4 wheeler, one after the other while singing Night Fever at the top of her lungs.
My hubby's face was lit up with such a smile and look of pride. You know that, That's my girl, look. I wish I had taken pictures but my camera was on charge. Maybe this weekend I will get some pics as she has already planned for a doughnut rally in the back yard.

Back to Co-op
Our first day back to the Y and boy was it great. The kids were so happy to see all their old friends and meet some new ones. I was amazed at how many new kids were added to our groups this year. The program has really grown and is greatly improved.
As with many things there was conflict and turnover within the program last year. The former coordinator said the new program would be a huge failure, not worth our money. I hate to say it but thank goodness she was so wrong. The new program is great and very well organized. The kids are doing more structured activities in the classes and the atmosphere is much more relaxed.
After a day of the Y and then ballet with Poogie I am spent. I am off to bed for some much needed sleep.
