Last week I went to my very first ballet class, and I absolutely LOVED it! It's at a place called A Fairy Tale Ballet that's really close to our house. We can even walk there, but we didn't for my first day because it was raining outside. My teacher's name is Ms Kirstie, and there are 5 other little girls in my class that are all 2 years old or 3 years old (like me!). The mommies all come to the class, too, to watch and help.
First, we stretched.
Next, it was time to get up and start learning some ballet dance moves.
After we learned some new dance moves, we practiced them with music. Then, it was time to read a fairytale. This week's story was Peter Pan.
After the story, we got to put on costumes for our fairytale dances. Since we read Peter Pan this week, guess what our costumes were! Tinkerbell!
Not as pretty as my Tinkerbell costume at home, but it was still pretty exciting!
We danced to 3 songs from Peter Pan with our Tinkerbell costumes on. My favorite was the Shadow song:
Ballet is so much fun! And the best part is I get to go back every week! I went again this morning, and it was even more fun than last week!
Hi! I turned 5 months old on Sunday, and I'm back to tell you what I've been up to! Today is also my daddy's birthday. Happy birthday, Daddy!

What's new:
-I can bring my hands and toys to my mouth, and I even try to put my pacifier in my mouth by myself sometimes.
-I can sit up really well with just a little bit of help.
-I can stand up and bounce with help, and I LOVE it!
-I started eating some solid food this month. First I tried oatmeal cereal, and after the first few days, I liked it so much that Mommy started letting me try some veggies! The only thing I've tried that I don't like is peas. My cousin James doesn't like them either, so Mommy thinks he warned me about them...
-I slept 12 hours through the night from 7:15-7:15 for the first time last night!
Likes:
-Eating solids, especially oatmeal cereal, carrots, and sweet potatoes
-Grabbing EVERYTHING, especially Mommy and Sis's hair or your hands and arms while you try to change me
-Laughing (But my belly laugh gives me the hiccups!)
-Playing with people more than toys (my fav is when people make silly faces at me)
I have 2 favorite videos this month! The first one is my very first time trying oatmeal. I wasn't sure what to think at first...
The next one is of my sister being super silly with James and me and making me belly laugh so hard that I got the hiccups!
