Captivated!

One afternoon after Claire got home from school we put on a DVD that Hallie had picked out at the Library. It was made in Canada and it's called Bella Dancerella. It takes you through all 5 positions of ballet and the girl that does it is rather interesting. In one of the scenes she wears the weirdest outfit I have ever seen a ballerina wear. She actually looks like she is wearing wonder woman's outfit. Anyway, I had put it on in my room on my computer and left to clean or cook or something. When I came back all 3 girls were just staring at the DVD, completely captivated...even Audrey! I thought it was so cute that they were so interested. As you can see, Claire had to get on her ballerina attire and do the moves along with "bella ballerina." It was such a cute little scene.



Here is the wonder woman outfit I was describing:

Tell me that is the weirdest "warm up" outfit you have ever seen? And look at the kids' outfits as well. Honestly, did I miss something in ballet class?

Those are the weirdest outfits. I think I would be captivated too, it is like a car accident.

So cute. Girls will be girls. You said you missed that in ballet class...did you take a ballet class? If you did, it's been blocked from my longterm memory!

I had to laugh out loud at that outfit! What was that? Don't you love the library!? You can get the craziest stuff their but it's free and the kids love it!

Carol and I both laughed at the outfits. I could definitely see Zebby in that purple jumper. So hott!!! OH, and the creepy Bear in the background, it's almost as bad as a clown.
I really think you should be monitoring their viewing more closely :)

Fun! Stuff from other countries does look strange most of the time! Your girls are cute! Briel misses them. She would have loved to dance with them. ;)

Hey there Leah! I was just on Brent's blog and thought I would come check out what you guys have been up to and say Hi. So Hi. Your girls are cute, those are some pretty ugly outfits, but I think kids like it more when they are crazy and ugly! So I was reading your post about the nurses elbow and poor cast she had to get. I do know how you feel, I have done that twice to Lauryn, (the nurses elbow, not broken her arm, not that you broke her arm, anyway.) The first time she was just little, under one year old and I didn't even know I did it, she just wouldn't use her arm and would scream when I moved it. The second time was just this last fall, and I had a pretty good idea what it was when it happened. I felt horrible also! Your still a great mom. Well, it was fun to see your fam.
