this week i'm starting a something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue theme. why? well, one because i missed lelly's spt of these things and....i need to shake things up a bit around here. so here we go...today's post is "something new".

spencer has always wanted to play the violin, ever since kindergarten. a classmate of his brought her tiny violin to class and played some notes for everyone and since then he has been hooked. he's convinced that the violin is the instrament for him. so, i told him that if he would take a few years of piano first, just to get down some basic note reading and training then we could switch to the violin at some point.

so, it's official, he's switched. he's had two lessons so far and is constantly squeaking out 'twinkle twinkle little star' but there's a smile on his face while he does it.

we'll see if it ends up being something he does forever a long time, i have a feeling he will. i love spencer's passion, he's very all or nothing kind of kid.

he has wanted to play the violin for a long time, and never gave up on the idea, and now, here he is.

spencer? what a stud!!
I hope the violin goes well- I played & started at his age... he'll be great.
It's hard listening to a new little violin practicing... good for you to be such a great mom about it!!
good for him -that's awesome!
You go Spencer!!!
I have always heard kids that play an instrument are smarter!! I love it!! My kids started piano last year--what a struggle to get them to practice but I love hearing them play!
I haven't seen Kung Fu Panda yet either and therefore my kids haven't as well! Maybe this week...
I loved the pedicure girls day out!! I love pedicures! I love the time to sit and chat or pull out a good book and relax!! :)
I'm there!!
Way to go Spencer! I love the violin!
PS-I love your new hair!
Yeah Spencer! I think this is wonderful:) Nicolette is going to be mine who plays the violin. I always wanted a violinist and I am waiting for Nicolette...we tried when Lexi was three...bad idea:(
