My 1st ballet recital!

I couldn’t wait to get to my very first ballet recital to show mommy everything I had learned, and she couldn’t wait to go and FINALLY get some pictures of me dancing! I decided to show her a few of my dance moves at home first to practice…

This is called “umbrella arms”:

When we got to my recital, they had a ballerina for us to pose in!

I loved showing everyone everything I had learned… tippy tiptoes, jumping, and using my “motors” to catch Miss Bernadette’s fingers!

Mommy was busy watching me, keeping an eye on Emily, taking pictures, AND video taping my performance… great job mom!
