~Guess What?~

                                   

Guess who is starting dance classes tonight?

No, not me ;)

Miss Rowan is...

She is taking a Pre-Ballet/Tap class... It is on Tuesday evenings at 6pm.  She is so excited!!  I am too.  Rowan has a natural gift of rhythm, so this will be so good for her.

Last night she wanted to go to the class right after her gymnastics class!  Once her gym class was over she says, "Now to dance right?" and I had to break her little heart by telling her that she had to wait until tomorrow night!!

The dance studio is in the same building as her gymnastics class, so that is good.  It is only a 20 minute ride from our house... I just hope she enjoys the class.  My daughter likes to shake her booty, so I hope the structure of the class works for her... Or rather, she works with it!

She does have to follow their dress code though.  She has to wear a Red leotard and white tights... Then pink ballet slippers and black tap shoes.  I am sure she will want to wear one of the flowing little pink wraps/skirts that go around the leotard, just because all of the other little girls wear them too!  So that will be one more thing for me to buy.  Thank goodness they sell most of the stuff there at the studio.  And it isn't too expensive... Or at least I don't think it is.  I've never had to deal with dance clothes, so I'm not sure.  Hey Cat, is $19 expensive for a leotard???  And how much to tap and ballet slippers run???  Oh, this dance thing is out of my league!!  I'm only used to buying bathing suits and water polo balls :D

So, you know you should expect to see pictures tomorrow.  I hope to be able to buy her outfit before class so that she can look like the rest of the girls in the class... I even told her she has to wear her hair up- which she despises!!- so that her hair doesn't get in her face!!

How exciting huh??? 

Anyways...

Rowan did really well at gymnastics last night.  It was skills check off week... So that means that she was being "tested" on all the things they are learning in class.  She has already had around 12 (or so) skills checked off... And once she has the rest checked off, she'll move up a level.  She won't be able to go to another class until she turns five, but she'll move up a level.  So, we'll see how many skills she has checked off next Monday!

Now, my other little child isn't feeling too well.  I swear, we've been trading colds back and forth for a while now.  So, Mr. Zachary is going to be making ANOTHER trip to the doctors this afternoon.  He is really congested and has a cough.  Plus, he is pulling at his ears again!!  I don't know if his ear infection came back or never left.  I just need a healthy child before we go to Pismo!!  I don't want a sicky child or to have to stay home... I mean, I will stay home if need be, but it will be a sad thing ;)

Well, I gotta go finish payroll.  I have to leave early and what not... Plus I Need my check!!!  So, I hope everyone has a nice Tuesday.
