Dance

Dance has started back up and this year I have two dancers! Emmie is taking Ballet and Jazz. She decided to try jazz instead of tap this year. So far she is really enjoying jazz! 

Ruthie is my other dancer! She was SO excited to start dance this year. By the end of last year she was always so sad that she didn't get to go to class while we were at dance with Emmie (and she was always trying to slip in to a class...apparently she thought nobody would notice her in with the high school girls!). She is taking Creative Movement this year, which is ballet and tap. She loves her teacher and she's probably one of the youngest in the class but seems to be doing well! I will say it was quite hard to find shoes and leotards for a tiny 2 1/2 year old! I'm very thankful for some friends that have sent us their tiny leotards because they are not easy to find!

We spend 2 hours at dance on Tuesdays which makes for a long afternoon after school pick up but its nice to get it all done in one day. Ruthie has class first and while she's in class I do homework with Emmie and Ellie. Then we have a little break before Emmie dances. The nice thing is that it's so easy to keep my littles entertained. There are always a gaggle of older girls there that are so so sweet to Ellie and always come and find her and let her tag along with them before they go into class. We love our Bailey's family!

My girls adore Blair...she sat and listened to Emmie read the first day we were back...so sweet!
