Princess Parade

Well, the princess parade fell apart while I was videotaping - but here is what I caught. They were very cute...

Last Day of School 2009

Today is Adaline's last day as an Older Toddler. Mommy is trying not to cry - we love, love, love Adaline's teachers and will be so very sad to not have them next year. Adaline has been with Elaine since she was a baby and has been with Cori for two years... Elaine, Cori, and Daphne have been a great team and have really helped Adaline grow and develop this year. What a blessing they are!

Adaline Dancing at AthFest

Adaline is the little one with the pink hat on (second from the left) - we hope she is only a groupie at this age and not later in life. :)

Art Gallery

Adaline made an art gallery recently, and here are the fruits of her labor. :)

Ballet class 2

My ballet teacher, Alice DePass, is the woman standing against the wall in a black shirt. I feel like I have come full circle with Adaline taking ballet from Alice! :)

A quick video of her walking on her toes.

Ballet class1

Not the most exciting clip from ballet class - but the little girl next to Adaline is pretty funny to watch. :)

Dress Rehersal for Ballet Performance

Part of the reason I have been slow to post pictures is because Adaline has been keeping us very busy! This weekend is her ballet performance - yes, three year olds apparently are in ballet performances these days. The instructor (who was my teacher!) must have figured out the money she could make off including little ones...

Last night was the rehersal, and I am posting the video of Adaline's class. She is in the front row on the far left. Her tutu is low in the front due to her belly and high in the back due to her bottom. :) Very cute. I still wonder if make-up, dippity do, and a costume are necessary for three year olds... Enjoy!
