One more from dance class

One last video from dance class. Party in the USA! What could be better?

Dance Class

Emma's been talking about taking a dance class for a few months now so we decided to give it a try this summer. She's in a combo class where they do 30 minutes of ballet each week and then alternate between hip hop and tap for the second 30 minutes. Here's the warm up.

Here Emma's learning some ballet moves and their names.

Here they put it all together.

These are some jumps from first to second position. There's a name for this move but I won't attempt to spell it here.

After about 30 minutes of ballet, they started hip hop. This video was so good that I had to put it all up here. The blog only allows certain sized videos so it's split in two. It's worth it to watch both!

Sorry for the delay

I have been remiss in my duty to keep this blog up to date. Please look at all 7 posts I put up today which makes us current. Emma starts dance class tomorrow so I'll be sure to post those videos soon!

Who's gonna brush your teeth?

Steve and Emma have their own special song they sing when it's time to brush Emma's teeth. Here's Emma's rendition.

Emma thought it would be a good idea to have her stuffed animals sing the song too.

The Sun is Going to Come Out

Charlie and Lola is Emma's favorite show these days. In one episode, Lola really wants to be the sun in the school play. This is the song she sings. There are actually more verses than this one but unfortunately Emma doesn't know them.

Emma has also started talking in an english accent. Here she tells you the name of her favorite episode.

Swimming

Emma's in her own swim class these days. I must say I'm thankful that I don't have to get in the pool anymore. Here's Emma practicing swimming on her back with her teacher, Miss Tina.

We've been to Wright's Pond a couple of times so far this year. Here Emma practicing her kicks and scoopers.

Emma got more practice swimming in Greenport at the Murray pool. She got some encouragement from her cousins Megan and Myles and her Aunt Laurel.

Biking

Emma is getting good at riding her tricycle. Other than running into my car, this is a good example of how far she's come along.
