Lana did so great in her class. She didn't want to do any of the stretching and was a bit fussy during them (she wanted to check out all the other kids) but once we started going through the stations she really got into it. She completely understood the concept of each station and did well at them, especially considering she appeared to be the youngest in the class (she barely made the cut-off of being 18 months old by 3 days). She loved hanging from the "uneven bars" and swinging her legs like a monkey. She was not shy and ran to the teachers when they called her name (opposite of Landen who clung to me crying into my leg the first time he went to gymnastics class at the age of 2). We do need to work on sumersaults which she will gladly try at home, just not on the mat. She preferred to pencil roll down even wedge mat there was. The trampoline was also a bit tricky since she still can't jump, but she had fun bouncing. Oh and staying in line will take time too. She didn't quite get why she couldn't just do the uneven bars and balance beam the whole time. :)
Sadly this is the only picture I got...
It was impossible for me to take pictures or video while leading her through the stations. Hopefully Neil will be able to duck out of work for a while to come watch her and let me get better pictures.
Landen LOVES t-ball!!! They got team t-shirts which he thought was "so cool." Here's my proud Sporty Spider...
Landen continues to do so well at anything Sport-related. He has always been incredibly coordinated and so t-ball comes easy for him. Landen also has just about left his shy days behind him! He is great with the other kids and has become very talkative with his coaches. Yay!
We got to Thursday's class early since Landen was so excited and he was in full on silly-mode.
Look Daddy was there too...on the phone with Mommy...
Landen was posing as a true sporty spider.
I got him this insulated cup and he thinks it's the coolest.
Lana got her own too and well...Monkey See, Monkey Do.
Aren't I good at making babies?
I love her beautiful curls!
Action shot. I have to keep the camera ahead of him or I'll miss him!
