Thursday night I took Allie for her first ballet lesson, which is actually also her first ever organized activity! We have been waiting until she turned 4 to enroll her in anything. She won't be 4 until the 29th of this month, but its close enough seeing as how she LOVES dancing and I didn't want her to miss out on this session - it runs Jan through April with a recital the first week of May. They will be performing a version of Swan Lake, called Little Princess Swans. Her instructor, Ms Sheri, has taught dance for 32 years. She is wonderful with the children, very patient and encouraging. Allie took right to her, and watched her every move!
Here are some of my favorite pictures from the lesson. The first lesson we were allowed in the room, but after that we will be waiting in the hallway to not be a distraction.
