We put Ava into a dance academy last month. Oh. my. goodness. is it cute! Just trying to find activities to keep the little girl busy. Preferably, activities with other children her age to start working on those essential social skills for preschoolers. This particular class had no other little girls in it!! We got there the first night and we'd been talking up this dance class to her and saying, "you get to go dance with other little girls!" so she was so excited to go meet some friends and come to find out, it's just her in the class! She was bummed. She walked in the studio and said, "heeyyyy. where's all my frenz at!?" We do have the option of switching classes, but this particular time really works for our schedule, so we'll see what happens. Last week there was actually another little girl in there with her, so she was happy. :) It's so fun to watch her! She's not the best listener yet, and she kind goes off and does her own thing sometimes... lol... but she gets better at following directions every week. They do a recital in the spring that I can't wait to watch. Its going to be so adorable!

Uh-oh...she spotted me!
Her first day she refused to take off her light up skechers and put the ballet slippers on. lol!!
Being bashful on her first day. :)
First dance class = a success!!
Meeeeeep! My girl in a tutu!! So stinkin cute!!!
Doing her stretches. Did you notice that I can *almost* get her crazy hair back into a ponytail!? I've never cut her hair, by the way... it's just taking forever to grow! It gets thicker and curlier, but not longer. So funny.
Okay, look at this pair. They walked out of last week's class calling each other "best friends". I love it. :)
