Sweet Cheeks Short and Sweet

Here is our dear little
SweetCheeks
all dressed and ready for dance class.
Optical illusion-
Which is bigger-her head or her bow?


I watched her dance last night.
She is so happy -no matter what she is doing.
She just makes my heart smile.
She can twirl and pirouette with the best of them.
And to think-we used to call her our little
DANCING BEAR.
You can click on the image to go to 
Amber Alexander's website which is full
of wonderful whimsical animal renderings.
Prepare to be delighted.

I guess that is better than 
Dancing Bare!

  1. I imagine SweetCheeks gives everything her all. The most important thing is that she enjoys it. She looks lovely.

  4. How cute! I have a photo of my mother taken in the 1930's and she has a GINORMOUS bow on her head too. Big bow heads must come into style every now and then!

  5. She is super cute. And haven't you heard that saying.... the bigger the bow, the better the Mom. They have it on shirts and bows and onesies and things in our area and big bows are all the rage. I prefer smaller ones on babies, though.

  8. How sweet she looks! I took dance classes while growing up and fell in love with dance! If she stays with it, it will really pay off. It will help her have a good body image, and self confidence. It's a wonderful way to express yourself and feel connected to something that keeps you on the "right track" in life. I hoped to have a girl one day so I could put her in dance, but it never happened. Now, I have to just live with my memories. I know it was fun to watch her. I love seeing little ones in their recital at the end of the year!

    Blessings,

  40. She sure does rock that bow! None of your granddaughters like to fade into the woodwork, do they? Let's all say a prayer that she never loses her enthusiasm for life.

  46. I laughed so hard at your comment about SweetCheeks bow. My girls are grown now (in their twenties) but they still complain about the size of the bows I put in their hair. Funny, how some things stay the same over time. Sweet Cheeks is adorable with or without the bow!

    ReplyDelete
  47. oh you must get a video of her dancing on here one day.

    Oh my she is so much like my Granddaughter when she was this age.

    Never still. She used to visit us. And do cartwheels all the time. Back flips in the pool. I was going through my cds last week and here she was never a dull moment.

    So you have a real people person.

    oh the bow is cute.

    Most babies wear them that size.
    So Sweet Cheeks looks very glamours.
