Gymnastics!

Natalie is already on her second session of gymnastics, and it's going pretty well. She started her first session all the way back in January, and is almost at the end of her second session. The first session was with the 2-year-olds where the parents could come along with them to class. Her second session is with the big boys and girls and it's just Natalie and her fellow students with the teachers. It took a week or two for Natalie to get used to going solo but she's doing very well now. She's now willing to do all of the activities as well.

They have a lot of really fun obstacle courses that involve lots of jumping, climbing, and somersaults. She was most nervous about the activity where you stand up on a platform, then swing out over a big foam pit and drop in. It took a few weeks but now she does it all the time!

Here are some pictures of her in class. She now has a pretty blue gymnastics outfit to wear. We'll make sure to get some pictures of that at some point for you guys as well :-)
