Yeah, we had our last dance recital this past weekend. We were all excited to see her perform again. She's always done such a great job and this year she was in three numbers. (We secretly dread this concert each year because it is soooo looong and we know we will have a hard time with the other two.) I have a lot to say about dance and have been meaning to write a post about it for a long time, but when I came into the dressing room at intermission and found Gabriela lying on the floor, I knew we were both done with this whole thing. She told me she wanted "to go home and that she missed her stuffed animals and blankets." I feel pretty confindent in my decision to end this.
But onto the concert:
My little prima ballerina.
She looks so skinny! That's why her nickname at home is "little bones."
Wish I could say that about myself. Wow, my face has really rounded out!
This ballet number was to "Someday My Prince Will Come" from Snow White.
This is from "What's New at the Zoo?"
Yes, she is supposed to make that face.
And this lyrical number is to "When Somebody Loved Me" from Toy Story.
We were all very proud of her and she was happy as pie to finally get flowers after her performance. We love that kid and admire her will to stick to it and work hard. She really has come a long way and it's been fun to watch her dance over the last three years.

Such cute costumes Lindsay. And way to go - moving on and change can be hard but good. I can't wait to see what else she latches on to and excels in. With the new baby coming, I'm sure you'll love the little extra time not spent coming and going.
That looks like a pretty serious dance recital! She looked great in all the pictures. You look so cute too Linds. I'm excited for you to have another little baby around soon!
