Ballet Lessons

Ellie and Eva started ballet lessons last week. They have been asking for years (yes, years!) and finally Santa decided to give them leotards, tights, and ballet shoes for Christmas. The girls of course knew this meant they would finally get to take ballet!

Since they are less than two years apart, both girls are able to be in the same class. This is wonderful right now, as I'm sure anyone with kids older than preschool age realizes sometimes the hardest part of these activities is just finding time to get them there. Heck, Ellie and Eva take piano lessons (granted it is in our house and from their dad) and 75% of the time I forget they have them!

The girls are having a blast with ballet. They jumped right in that first class and did everything the teacher showed them. Eva is working on doing the splits, though she's not quite there yet (or even close really but she sure is trying!). Teddy watched their first lesson last week. Poor guy was very jealous and kept saying the whole lesson, "I want to do ball-way!!"

  1. I think it's cute that Teddy wants to do ballet too.
