Little Ballerina

We've been waiting since Mariah was this little
to put her in a dance class
and harness this natural flare.

The day has finally come
And she LOVES it.

Here are some pics of her in her "ballerina costume"

Mind of Mariah

Lately Mariah likes to distinguish gender roles....with almost everything. I don't know where she gets most of it.

Mariah: Mom, look. There's Jasmine on my socks."
Me: Cool
Mariah: No, pretty. Cool is for boys


Cody: How are you, Dude?"
Mariah: Don't call me dude. Dude is for boys.

Cody: (on the phone) Are you going to dance tomorrow?
Mariah: Yeah
Cody: Cool
Mariah: No... Pretty

Mariah: Mom, I'm scared of bad guys.
Me: It's ok. I'll protect you.
Mariah: Daddy could fight them. Boys fight bad guys and girls go call the police.
