Tiny Dancer!

Ever since Cooper saw the episode of Oliva as a ballerina its all that she wanted to do. When you ask her what she wants to be when she grows up, the answer is "ballerina". When you walk into a room she inevitably doing pirouettes and sashays through our foyer. Cooper does everything 100% or she doesn't do it all.. which can be a good or bad thing. She is definitely head strong lol. After some research my mom and I found what we think will be the best fit for Cooper for furthering her future dance career! LOL . Her first day of class was today and her best friend Rylee is joining in the fun ! Thanks Aunt Staci! The dance academy is very strict on wardrobe ...(which i think is a total downer) I mean doesn't she deserve a hot pink tutu and a Bedazzled leotard (pretty sure Cooper would have appreciated ). Instead she has to wear the standard pale pink leotard with white tights and pale pink ballet slippers and her hair HAS to be in a bun... obviously her teacher hasn't seen this child's hair( can we say "hot mess 99% of the time").. i think this is a sin... but rules are rules right?!?!? Cooper got dressed and hung out at Aunt Da's house with Gigi before class and played with Simon and Lexi Lu Lu. Class went  great! It only has 3 little girls in it (which allows them to get more one on one instructions which we totally believe in!!!!) and  Cooper loved her teacher, Christine! She followed directions great (except she didn't know what "OK girls, Line Up" meant). After the teacher explained it was good from there! She even had to call me to let me know EVERYTHING about class and that she was extra hungry from the extra dancing she did today! All in all I would say 1st day of Ballet was a success! Cant wait for the recital!!!!
