Ballet

Today I took Ella to her first Pre-Ballet/Creative Movement class at the park district. I was very cute. They can wear leotards and tutus and ballet slippers. Ella was all decked out. Here she is as we are getting ready to leave the house.

The class is for 18-36 months, so they are all pretty little still. The class is just about moving and trying to follow directions. The parents also have to participate in the whole class, so it's fun for all :) I hope that Ella enjoys the class and wants to keep dancing, follow in her mommy's footprints. Here are some more pictures from class today.


Here is a video of her practicing her dancing last night. She was so funny and came up with this little move all on her own. She kept showing it to me and told me it was her "pretty dance". She had just had her bath so her hair was wet and she put on her dress up clothes to perform.
