LITTLE BALLERINA

The only thing that makes me happier than having a daughter who is an amazing dancer- is having a daughter who is absolutely in love with dancing.  It's a good thing she loves it- because I was going to have a daughter that danced, weather she liked it or not.  Pyper loving it just avoids the unpleasant seen of me dragging her into the studio by her bun.
I could go on for days about how incredible she is, and what a hard worker she is.. but I won't.
I am looking forward to years of dance competitions, and ballet recitals.
Her first competition is January 10th.  Dance out here isn't quite the same as it is in the west... should be interesting.
Dale is a really good "girls dad".  He totally digs the competitions... and looks forward to them as much as I do.
The last competition is about a week before the bean is due.  Thank goodness.  I don't love the idea of packing around a newborn, crazy Crewzer, and Elle- all while doing enough make-up, and using enough hairspray to make any 9 year old look like a hooker.
These kids definitely come with their own spirits.  Pyper's is hard working, passionate, emotional, and will probably have an ulcer by the time she's 12.  She will also succeed in countless ways, and make her Mom and Dad look good on a daily basis.  What can I say?  She's a balancing act.
