Little Twinkle Toes

Everytime we take Sadie to Dance, Lucy is just dying to go in! She hear's the songs and gets excited as we are waiting in the lobby. Since Lucy will be 2 next week, yes I know!, we decided to sign her up for dance. Her friend Averee signed up too! So we have been so excited. Tuesday was her first day. She was having so much fun when we got there. My friend Lyndsee teaches there and so she was setting up the room for one of her classes and the girls went right in to play and dance around. Then it was time to line up! They were familiar with this from their big sisters doing it! Lucy always waits with her arms behind her back! I LOVE it! She'll hand me something to open for her and then wait looking up at me with her arms behind her back! Too cute!
Once they went inside and shut the doors...Lucy went down hill! She cried and cried and cried! If her teacher wasn't holding her, she would cry. Everytime she tried to set Lucy down she just reached up for her and cried. There were maybe two times when she was okay and realized Averee was in there too. I noticed the first thing Lucy said to Averee was, "Mommy?" So funny! Anyway, she seemed excited about it afterwards so we will keep trying. I think she will be okay with it after she gets the routine of it down. We are so glad she has such a great teacher Mrs. Colleen! She was so sweet to Lucy! I felt so bad for her but she didn't mind at all! What a sweetheart!

What? "Baby Lucy" is old enough to be in a dance class? Are you kidding me?
Seriously, she looks so grown up! I'm freaking out. I can't believe how big she is getting, so fast! She looks so darn cute in her little dance outfit!!!

Yeah! They are going to have so much fun together!!!! Averee kept saying after "Lucy sad.... Mommy" it was cute. They are getting way to big, but it sure is fun!

OMG! I knew that Lucy and Trevor were turning two this year but WOW did it come quick! I am in shock that little LuLu is old enough to be in DANCE! That is so fun though. I love the pictures and how she waits with her hands behind her back...what a sweetheart. Tell Lucy Happy Birthday from her Aunt Cyndi and Uncle Craig (on her B'day of course) ;o)

Lucy looks adorable in her leotard! She must feel so grown up to be in dance, just like her sister! She has been watching Sadie in dance all her life, and now it is her turn too. How fun for her to have Averee in class too. Those four girls are lucky to have each other. Sorry Lucy had a sad moment, but she will get over it soon. I hope she is fine wit everything this week. She sure is a doll! Love the pictures!
