Today was Taylor's 1st dance competition. They did AWESOME and took home the 1st place trophy AND the "tu-tu" cute award. I'm not at all biased but seriously they are the cutest things ever!
Practicing the routine one more time.
Taylor loved being on stage and dancing. She wanted us to cheer for her REALLY loud. She informed me that she couldn't see me when she was performing so next time I need to stand up, wave my arms, and yell "Mommy's right here!" Right! 
Here are our VERY PROUD trophy captains.
I was so proud of Taylor today. She tends to be shy and apprehensive in new situations. It usually takes her awhile to feel comfortable but she has grown up so much in the last few months. I think dancing has really helped that aspect of her personality. There was no fear today (at least that was visible) and she did awesome!
Here is a video of their dance. The color isn't great. Taylor is the 4th one in from both sides.
What do you want to be when you grow up?

I'm exhausted just thinking about it.

Pirate explanation: This week I told Taylor that her and Paige were going to be the trophy captains. Later she seemed confused and asked me if Paige and her were the trophy pirates (???) Apparently, that was the 1st thing on her mind when the man with the microphone asked my normally shy daughter what she wants to be when she grows up. It gave us all a good laugh. She has since clarified that she was just joking and she doesn't really want to be a pirate. She thinks a "ballerina teacher" would be great!

Holy makeup! I didn't even recognize her. Too cute though! I love the video, she did a great job. I got teary eyed again watching it, must be some weird pregnancy hormone thing that I get when Taylor dances haha
I know she'd make a great Pirate...just like her Dadddy will be a great Daddy to 16 kids...oh the things our kids say and we never forget. *sigh*
That is far too adorable! Ya know, I have been hearing about pirates on the news lately. She just might be able to achieve her dream!
So stinkin' cute. And what a pretty girl Taylor is.
Taylor did such a great job!! I got teary watching her performance and then again watching the video. Not shy at all talking to the MC in front of all those people! It was great!
