Our little gymnast. Yes, we said we would NEVER do it but we did. After months of asking for gymnastics lessons, we decided to honor Kate's request and enroll her in her 1st lesson. She LOVES it more than I imagined. She is in a 6-week class for 4-6 year olds and is learning some basic gymnastics moves - hand stand, "skin the cat", tuck jumps, forward rolls, etc. We have a whole checklist that we are to accomplish by the end of the 6-weeks. Stay tuned to Kate's progress.
As you all know, she can be deathly shy at times and often takes 10-15 minutes to warm up to someone new, or even someone she knows. Much to our surprise on the 1st day, she walked right out onto the floor, held her teacher's hand, and talked/chatted with her new gym buddies. She has been a pro each week since and still seems to love it! It is amazing what 1 lesson a week adds to your weekly schedule. We laugh all the time thinking about what it will be like in the future with 2 in some sort of after school activity. Despite adding a little more to the week, Ryan and I enjoy the time at the gym together, watching our little girl grow and develop.
