Gym Dandies



About a month ago, Kris came home one night excited that he and Sophia had a surprise for me! I could tell that they were both really bursting at the seams to relay to me what they had just done. Kris looked at Sophia and told her to tell momma the surprise. Sophia looked up at me, smiled and said "gym-in-astics, momma." While I was happy that Sophia was so excited, I am almost certain I gave Kris a look of "What were you thinking?"

Well, today was the day...and I must say Kris made a good call. The newest little Gym Dandie was a little unsure once the stretching began, but once she spotted the little bars, rock wall, foam block pit, trampoline and everything else she got to play and bounce on, her attitude changed. She loved it and I loved watching her from the upstairs. At one point, she finished jumping down from the uneven bars and even clapped for herself. It was pretty funny. Thanks to Coach Julie's patience and love of children, I think there are many more fun Tuesday's ahead!

So you think you can dance...Sophia's version!

Sophia has a lot of favorite things to do...pretty much if an activity involves animals, jumping, swimming, running, playing, etc. she cannot get enough. However, if there is one subject that comes up more than others when she's looking for something to do on a Saturday night, it's "I wanna go dance."

This Saturday she was not disappointed (well, that is until it was time to leave the dance).
