Gymnastics!

Isaac started gymnastics this past weekend. I think it went pretty well for the first day. He was a little distracted at first and just wanted to watch everyone else. But he did a great job, considering he was the youngest in the class with 3-3 1/2 yr olds! Even though he lagged behind at times because he was interested in the other kids class, he followed directions and caught up with the rest of the class.
We were going to do a mommy and me class but not enough kids signed up. So, they moved him up to the next class. When class was ready to begin he didn't want to go at first but then took the teacher's hand and followed her. I got a little emotional watching him walk out on the mats. He was so big and so little at the same time. He's growing so fast. Of course, Nick said I better start preparing for his first day of kindergarten!

Getting a little help from his teacher on the balance beam.

Doing his first summersault.The three girls in front of him are in his class. He was behind because he was watching the older kids. But he did a great job of following directions. (Click on the picture and it's bigger)

He tried to reach for the rings and his teacher lifted him up. He's a dare devil!
Now Nick wants to convert the basement to a gym and get mats, balance beams, and trampolines--so he can practice!
