TUTU FUN!

Halie officially started dance class today! I was a little nervous about the whole situation. (If any of you recall Micah's reaction when starting anything ... you will know why!) But she did great! I have been thinking about signing her up for a while... and finally decided that both her and Micah are growing up way to fast and she is only going to be cute and little for a short while so better now than later!

So last week I went and got her little leotards... tutu's....tights.... etc! It was fun... I even made a few tutu's (to save a few bucks!)....

So today was the day... we got up... got ready... Halie was a little nervous and kept asking if she was going to play with babies at dance class! I had to explain to her it was a little different than nursery!

So we got there and she was all decked out... a little over dressed I found out! Oops ( I couldn't help myself) One of the mom's asked if that was the outfits for the spring recital.... "No it's just what she's wearing to practice in"....
BUT SHE DID SO GOOD!
I expected crying... clinging.... and none of that happened... after a few seconds she wondered out and stood on her yellow star and listened closely to what the teacher was saying. She followed along... a few steps behind everyone but hey atleast she was out there! It was fun! Afterwards we went to the library and she told my cousin "My dance class fun Cara"... so as long as she enjoys it I will keep her in the class!

At Home... practicing... which is funny... all I knew to tell her was stand on your star.... twirl in a circle... tap your toes!Holy cow she is following directions! Oh I was so proud!

This was the tap portion of the class... the other girls changed into their tap shoes... Halie decided to take her tutu off... and then she was looking for her tap shoes... good thing I had her little "jewel shoes" in my purse... she did not know the difference! (So she was suppose to be standing on the yellow star... she got a little distracted looking at herself in the mirror!)Her pink and brown tutu!
