Kate's First Day of Gymnastics

Poor little Kat. She could hardly wait for gymnastics to start. Then on the first day she found out that she had to wait a whole extra month to start gymnastics so that her sweet little arm could heal completely. When we showed up for her first class in September she was sent home. Being only four I was worried that Kate would cry and maybe even have a fit. She didn't - she teared up a bit and said "I'm so disappointed mom!!" I was so proud of her. Being Supermom, I tried to make the wait somewhat fun for her by helping her find the perfect body suit and making her regular class time on Tuesdays fun by doing another activity.

But alas could replace her first day of class. She was ready to go at 7:30 this morning - even though class wasn't until 9:30.

Here she is out front.

Saying "Hurry up mom. I want to go in!!"

No time to pose for a picture mom.

I need to get in and warm up.

Okay I'll smile really fast since the door isn't

open yet. Snap the picture now okay?

Her first class was great. She enjoyed the Koala and the bars.

Kate can already do a beautiful cartwheel and handstand. Go girl!!

P.S. I have recently learned that Sarah and Kate will no longer pose for photos when it comes to activities they enjoy. Notice that I have very few pics of Sarah at soccer and none from gymnastics. I was only able to catch a few shots of Kate today - and that's only because she's four and still somewhat compliant . . .
