Our Little Miss is one ENERGETIC gal who is always on the move.  And if you’ve spent any time with her, you’ve seen that when the music is playing, she loves to orchestrate impromptu dance parties.  What can I say?  The girl’s just gotta boogey.  So we were jazzed this fall when – thanks to the generosity of Nena and Pops – our Little Ballerina was able to try out a dance class for the first time.  And boy did she have a ball!

Here she is, gearing up for class…

And then getting down to BIZ-NESS…
(I love her focus)

Though as a typical, high-spirited 3-year-old, “focus” is not really the way she rolls.  And that is just fine and dandy with us.  The Little Miss knows how to have fun WHEREver and WHENever.

Graceful ballet arms…

Followed by a little off-the-cuff hip hop.
Break it down, baby.

And a whole lotta other crazy moves!

Swan lake, maybe?

The “come hither” look?

And everyone’s favorite…Hopping on one foot through a maze!
She’s a total (Little) Goofball, but the girl’s got skills!

Strike a pose…
(Watch and learn, Madonna)

And then the proud finish!

Here she is on video (type in “wright” to watch).

 

The whole rule-following and taking-turns parts of dance class may have not been her favorite things, but whatever.  She had a great time, and I got to dress her up in a cute pink ballerina outfit AND burn off a bit of her (boundless) energy.  So I call that a win-win!

Nothin’ but (a Little) Sweetness and Light!

Until she gets tired and hungry, that is. 🙂
