This last Saturday Ava had her first Dance Concert at Wheeler Farm. She is the youngest in her dance class and she has been going since January I think. She is SO shy still and really just clings to her dance teacher, not any of the girls in her class. It is so hard for me because I just want to throw her out there and be like you don't have to cry just because some kid is looking at you. I think it is just a combination of her age and MAINLY just her personality. She does come from a couple of shy parents, I think we just know how to deal with it since we are older ha ha. I can't imagine us crying just by someone looking at us. I am hoping that she will grow out of it. It is so funny though because the owner of the dance studio always ask me if she just stays home with just me and if my mom just watches her. Well I kindly tell her that she does go to nursery and she does have a million cousins that she plays with and she has her Jocey.. so that is all she really needs right? This is why I am having her go to dance so that she can socialize a little bit. No I don't just sit in my house with her and give her my undivided attention, not possible.
So anyways about her dance concert, she did pretty good and didn't cry.. so that is a plus and she did a little booty shaking every once in a while. The funny part to me is that there is this one part in her dance where they all get on the floor and lay on their belly's and put there legs in the air and Ava just stood there looking at them like "I'm not going to do that". She still has two more concerts this next month so hopefully she will do more of her dance. I know she knows it because she comes home and does it. She just has a stubborn streak in her. 
Do I really have to sit by my class?
We went to Italian Village after and she was hungry!
Must of been all the booty shaking

LOL. I love this post. She is so cute. And YES she will grow out of this. I don't know what is better a shy child or a Tasmanian devil like my Aubri. Kids are so weird. But that's why we love them so much. eh? lol.
Good luck with the rest of the concerts!
