TANLINE: GALLERY: ARIANNE: 7th Year
 

 

Arianne's Seventh Year
Arianne's seventh year is as eventful as ever. She learned quite a few skills this year like cycling without stabilisers, in-line skating, 2-wheel scooter and is getting better and better at swimming. Our big daughter still does her usual ballet classes, recorder lessons and is getting to be quite a singer. On our holiday in August, she did her first studio voice recording with a song called "When there was me and you" from her favourite Disney film "High School Musical". She also did a Music Video version of the same song.

Arianne is a wonderful big sister to Annike and it's great to see them love each other so much. She plays with Annike and gives in to Annike's demands most of the time.

School is going really well and Arianne received glowing reports from her teacher last term. She still continues to do Kumon (math) and works very hard on it. Our big princess still plays with her dolls.

She contiues to be friends with the neighbourhood kids and spends most free time with one or the other. Still a very girly-girl, she prefers dresses to trousers and pink to any other colour. She still enjoys colouring and is now reading books on her own.
