Isabel started tap dance lessons a few weeks ago. While the other girls wear small, wispy tu-tus, Isabel goes all out. Shocking I know. This sucker is so big and so puffy, that I was nervous that her teacher Miss M. (the M could stand for her first name or for "militant") would ban it from class. No worries, Isabel asked her if it was "too fancy" (thanks
Fancy Nancy) and Miss M. gave it the all clear. Phew. Oh, and she loves tap dance--as if you couldn't have guessed that. ;)
Milo, on the other hand, is all about the team sports. He started Sporties for Shorties again. (Could the class name be any funnier?) They've played soccer, volleyball (mini net and all), and basketball. He works up a serious sweat and has a complete blast. My favorite comments from him have been, "So, Mom, how was Issy while I was at Sports Class? Was she okay?" and "Mom, I just kept shooting and shooting and shooting the basketball! They couldn't even stop me!". So, either my son has some wicked offense or he is a very poor listener. ;) I'm going with the offense.

We've been doing the dancing for a couple of years now. Our teacher Miss Gail sounds like your teacher. Eden is also particular about what she wears and such...
Oh my gosh that Sporties for Shorties is hilarious! I so need to get me a boy!
I love those kids!
Hey Erin,
I'm a friend of Sage's and found your blog through hers. I HAD to comment for a couple of reasons. My little girl is in sporties with your son, she's usually the one rolling on the floor:). We also have a Fancy Nancy obsession going on at my house, and we've had some classes with Miss M too. I think the M does in fact stand for millitant :)
I think that Milo may need some sweat bands! And I am so glad that her skirt wasn't too fancy that would have been heartbreaking!
I am pretty sure that if Miss M would have told Issy that her tutu was too fancy, she would have taken her business/classroom attendance elsewhere. :)
Oh, and it is definitely wicked offense that Milo has. :)
I so wish that Porter was their age so that he could be in classes with them!
