Buying new dancing clothes!

Because I have had so many pictures of the beach to share, I have not been able to tell you all about the HUGE week we have had around here!
A certain little someone is now wearing panties all the time! She just decided herself that she would like to start that and, shazam... it was done!

With that said, a certain someone is now eligible to go to dancing class!


Which meeeeans..

NEW DANCING CLOTHES!


Most of all... it means, new "tapping shoes". (that is all Ellie has been excited about since seeing Sarah in hers!)

And oh my, the excitement of getting to go to the dancing store to buy such fun-ness!

Can you see how pleased she is with her selection?

But that's not all! We have to have all new leotards/ tights, dancing bag, etc! Ellie Sue was in heaven with this shopping trip all for her! (and I was not planning this trip, so my clothes were MOVING clothes, not SHOPPING clothes... I don't usually go to town in a tight tank top!!)

The day was a fun one. I have flash forwards of shopping trips for school clothes, picking out cheerleading/ dance line/ whatever outfits, etc..

This baby couldn't hit that exit fast enough!

And this baby was her ever sweet self.

By the way, the reason I am actually in so many pictures is that Sarah (from next door) was with us on this trip and took a lot of the pictures!

Ellie had to get home. She had to try her new things on!!

And boy, was she ever proud. AND CUTE!

Naturally, she had to try on her tapping shoes first!

And naturally, she had to try out several of her poses... ooooooh, Ellie. an overhead pose! WOW!This kid of mine is so much fun. She keeps us on our toes.


Who needs entertainment when you've got Ellie!

Can't wait to watch her dance!

She is just the most excited thing with that shopping bag!!! How sweet! BTW---just wanted to let you know that I DREAMED I met you the other night! haha---don't want you to think I'm a weirdo---but I guess it comes from reading your blog EVERY day, and already feeling like I know you! For some reason in the dream, you had come to Six Flags (in Atlanta). And I was telling my Mom all about you & your family, and I remember telling you that I wanted to bring my daughter (an aspiring artist) to one of your art retreats in the BAH. Please don't think I'm a stalker now!! :) Too funny!!!
