Ballerina Baby

For the last several years, we've been overseas during the spring months. It's never been a problem (missing out on tornado season couldn't ever be a bad thing for me, ha), but we've had to forego certain things that might have been nice ... like ballet-class photos.

They're kind of like school pictures, really. There's one of your little darling in a cute pose flying solo, and there's a group shot of the whole class doing something equally adorable. Kendall started taking ballet at age three, and we've never had these pictures because we've always been gone in May when they've been taken.

Not any more.

The photos won't be available for some time, but your intrepid über-mommy did manage to catch a cute one of Kendall with another cutie from her class outside while we were waiting for another class to be finished ...


I'm not sure what their recital song is this year, but judging solely by the costumes, it's something country. We were allowed to watch the individual pictures being taken (although we got kicked out for the group shot, and the photographer did snarl at one parent for the incredibly gauche act of whipping out a camera phone to take a picture while the solo picture was being taken ... nice, eh?), and it occurred to me that with Kendall's missing teeth, she looked all kinds of hillbilly in that getup. Shame they didn't have a hay bale and a banjo and a big jug with XXX on it as props!
