Gymnastics

The doors open to so many possibilities when you turn three. I feel like every activity has the age limit of 3+ and now that our little June bug is 3, we are welcoming those open doors and ready to play! I think preschool was her first big step, and she has LOVED IT! So we weren't to worried about starting other extra activities. I'm really excited to have her try new things and start learning what she may love to do.  There many little things that we are excited to have her try!! Obviously not in an overwhelming kind of way. Hahaha 

We started June in gymnastics the very first week in January, so she hasn't been doing it very long, and the class we wanted her in, kept being full, so when there was finally an opening for her, we swooped in and got her in the class. 

It's at night so it's kind of become a daddy and June thing. She LOVES riding in daddy's car, so it's been a special treat for her each week to ride in there. 

June's first week she was a little hesitant at doing the things the teacher was wanting her to do. She loved the tramps and bouncing on her knees. She couldn't quite figure out how to bounce on her bum.

Learning how to stretch their bodies 


After her first class daddy treated her to blizzards! These two and their ice-cream. 

She loves getting dressed up and ready for gymnastics. 



This past week, we all ended up going to her class to watch her. Owen was being his adorable self and was pretty awesome hanging out while June was in class. It was SO FUN watching her. I seriously couldn't take my eyes off of all the fun little things she was doing. Just within the last few weeks of class she has majorly improved, and isn't terrified of the foam pit like she was at the beginning. She also can bounce on her bum and kick both her feet in a triangle. She progressing and it's awesome. 

At the end of the class they bow to the parents. It's pretty much the cutest thing! 
She is loving it! She talks about gymnastics all the time, and shows us her "awesome tricks" as she likes to call them. She is so proud when she learns something new or does something by herself for the first time. I can just see that little self confidence coming out in her. 

Man is she growing up and being this amazing little girl. I will never not be thankful for this perfect little chicka who I get to call my daughter. I really have the best.
