recital time

It was recital time for Amelia - I was lucky enough to get a vacation day and I'm not sure we could have survived if I hadn't!! We had a dress rehearsal at the studio, full dress rehearsal at the gymnasium and then recital night! it was a busy week! I am not the best at fixing Amelia's hair so I had to practice, practice, practice! I think I have the ballerina bun perfected - i did it about 6 times that week. here are the pictures I took - I get so weepy when I see my little girl up on stage dancing in the recital even though I have seen her dance the same dance so many times before. There is something special about seeing the whole performance come together and seeing your baby be a part of it!! Now, to get her to smile more when she is doing it!
