gymnastics

well, we decided it was finally time to start MO in gymnastics. at the time of this post, she's been twice and although i can't say she's getting better yet, i CAN say she's still loving it!! the whole class (18mo to 36mo) is based on following directions, waiting your turn, etc. all things that MO detests. we're working on it. it's gotta be hard for a little one when people are jumping and spinning all over the place!!

i think her first time of the "crayola balance beam" was pretty good!!

the point of this was to fall back. MO just jumped.

this balance beam was off the ground a little. she didn't want to put her feet down!

after a little reassurance, she took the lead.

she didn't feel like she could support her weight....

we tried again. she fell back!!

this is like a moon bounce with no sides. she's supposed to be jumping instead of running......

um, yeah, she wanted me to get on. no ma'am!

inching along the white line on her belly.

here is her friend mack!

one foot in front of the other.

ahhhh, the lice pit. i mean, foam pit. MO loves this!!!

5, 4, 3, 2, 1 BLAST OFF!!!

SS and i are enjoying it even though it's more of a work-out for us!! what's really cool about the place is, the owner, bart conner, is actually there working with aspiring gymnasts!!! no, he hasn't given MO a private lesson yet....ha!
