Gymnastics update

Since we didn't have class last week because of Labor Day, today was only the second time we have gone. Today went soooo much better than last time. I went super early so I could talk to the teacher and tell her my concerns. She wasn't really receptive to me at first. She said that she usually likes them to start coming at 18 months old!!! Um, yeah. I don't think any kid is ready to do a gymnastics class at 18 months old but that is just me. The class ended up going alot better so our talk must have gone better than I thought. And Makenna was just a super, amazing, good girl so that helped as well. She followed directions and waited her turn. She went through each thing in the right order. She did so awesome!! I can't tell you how proud I was of her. I overheard some ladies talking about how it took their kid like 5 months for their kids to do what they were told and to not be shy and there was my girl on her second class doing everything like a pro. I'm still not thrilled with the teacher but she will do for now. I don't care as long as Makenna is having a great time!!Ü

Isn't her leotard thingy so cute?? Her pants kept falling down last week and showing her cute little moon so I figured we needed to get one.

I clicked the pic just as she was finishing an awesome somersault.

And of course these are the rings that she has been wanting to get her hands on. She figured out how to flip around backwards on them and her teacher and another parent was very impressed;)

Good job Kenna Boo! I guess she put that teacher in her place. Makenna did alot better than the other little girls who have had more experience in class. Which tells me they weren't ready yet at 18 months. I am so proud of you baby girl!
