Dance Fever

Lin-Ley is all about ballet lately. Saturday, during "rest time", Lin-Ley decided that she did not have time for a nap. Instead, she destroyed her room by moving everything, including her rug, out of her way in order to have a proper dance floor. Upon further inspection there were shoes and dress-up clothes and tiaras everywhere. She had been trying on every combination until she found the perfect ensemble for her dance. In the end she chose a green Tinkerbell gown, blue Ariel shoes and a purple tiara. Perfection!

Tru is alway up for dancing. But he is more into the break-dance style. And who said you needed two good legs to dance - you just have to have the music in you!



And now we present the Nutcracker Duet:























The Easter Bunny left Lin-Ley a hula-hoop this year. There has not been much hip action but she and Tru have had a ball with it. They play circus. Lin-Ley holds the hoop out, Tru scoots through it and then they both look at me and yell "Ta-Da". Then Lin-Ley holds it out, Tru grabs the other side and she slides him all over the floor. This is also a big hit and it can keep them busy for a good 20 minutes at a time.

Well, Wednesday is Tru's BIG day. His prosthesis will be ready and Tru will be walking! I'm sure he will not want to wear it at first. But once he realizes what it will allow him to do.... watch out!
