Little Gymnast

Today was Mary-Kate's very first gymnastics class and she did great! I was so proud of her. She actually participated and did very well. Maybe it's the mommy bias in me, but I think she had some natural athletic ability. Maybe she will follow in her mommy's footsteps...but no pressure! I just want her to be happy and enjoy whatever it is she does and she definitely enjoyed gymnastics today.

The class is a parent and tot class, so I got to be right by her side the whole time. I think that helped her be more relaxed and have fun. We started with a warm up and then we did 3 different circuits: one on the floor, one on bars, and one on the beams. Mary-Kate impressed me with her abilities to jump, roll, and more. I took a bunch of pics, of course! :)

She didn't like the high beam as much, but still did great!
