Pedal, Pedal, Pedal

December 2010

Today I was cooking dinner and Justin asked me to step outside for a minute. What did I see?? Madison riding her tricycle!!!! Y'all. I realize this doesn't seem like a big deal. It is. She got her tricycle for her 2nd birthday and today is the first day she's been able to ride it by herself! Justin was letting her roller skate and then she just hoped on to the tricycle and started pedaling. She is really growing up now! I guess Santa needs to bring a bicycle this year!

So, I know this wasn't a very exciting post for y'all but I had to document this moment of "firsts" for Madison!

Dance Class

Last month, Madison started dance!!!! I have been so excited about this since I found out I was having a girl. I think we started her at the perfect time. She is typically very shy but has recently started breaking out of her shell.

Before her first dance class

She is taking one class at a local community center. It is 25 minutes of tap and 20 minutes of ballet. She says she likes ballet the best. That's my girl!

The first day of dance I was sooooo nervous. I thought for sure she'd cry and refuse to go in the class. Boy was I wrong! I walked her in, holding her hand, & sat her down next to a girl she just met. She gave me about 10 kisses (not complaining!) and then let me walk right out. No tears!! She did wonderful in her first class and has had 2 classes since then and is still doing great!! She's very attentive and has so much fun.

She has a recital at the end of this month and I just cannot wait! I'm so excited!!! Don't worry - I'll video tape it!
