Gymnastics






Madelyn takes a gymnastics class at All About Kids. She took gymnastics at My Gym for a little under 2 years but grew out of it. She got to the point where she felt like she owned the place & stopped taking direction from the teachers. AAK's gym is pretty big. Its equipped with 3 jumbo trampolines (all connected to a foam pit to jump into), slides, balance beams, bars to swing on, etc. Madelyn wears her gymnastics leotard to class that we bought from Target. Today they worked on cart wheels. Coach Denise said Madelyn is doing "awesome" in class...I'm so proud! Ansley & I observe the class from upstairs...you can see the whole gym. There is a play area upstairs but Ansley is more interested in trying to go down the stairs & crawling on the bleachers. Its kind of like when you give your kid a fancy gift & they play with the box instead! After class, we went to Sam's. Madelyn picked out a Thomas the Train book to take home & Ansley test drove a Radio Flyer rocking horse that I may put on her Christmas wish list. Ansley must have had a big morning b/c she fell asleep on the ride home!
