Dance!

Leila's first dance class was yesterday, and I think she'd give it mixed reviews. We've been getting her excited for dance ever since I signed her up. We've been doing tap moves on the kitchen floor for weeks, and when she woke up from her VERY short nap yesterday she couldn't wait to go to dance.

<-- here she is, so excited to go!

Then we got to dance....she didn't want me to put her down, and had a kung-fu death grip on me! I did the entire ballet portion of the class holding Leila...at least I've still got some moves ; )

The teacher (fortunately) brought her baby to class...the baby dropped something, and Leila jumped down from me, ran over to pick up whatever it was and was *quite* impressed with the lovely noise her "tap tap shoes" were making. That broke the ice, and Leila tapped the rest of the class.

After class we stuck around a little bit to watch some big girls dance. Leila loved watching them and said she wanted to come back next week.

I think she'll get more comfortable at every class!
