Ballerina Dreams

I started dancing when I was 2 years old. And continued pretty much until I had Emily. When I was pregnant with Emily and found out we were having a girl I was so excited to have my own little ballerina! Robert and I decided that we wouldn't force our kids to do the things we want them to do (dance and baseball) but would let them choose. Luckily, we ended up with the biggest girly girl there is who wants nothing more than to be a sparkly ballerina.

The plan was to start her at a studio in the fall but over the last few months she has been begging to start dance class. We found a community ed class that would at least be a start and kind of get her feet wet. And so the dream has been fulfilled!

She absolutely loves it. It is hysterical to watch her in class. She has a slight obsession with checking herself out in the mirror and has to constantly be in the front. It's pretty funny but we need to work on it. I think we'll be having many more years of dance in our future. Yay!

Scraggly Hair

Emily finally got her first haircut. Her hair was insanely long and getting really difficult to deal with.
