Jump.Bubbles.Stamps.Color Page

This is pretty much what I hear when I ask if she is ready for gymnastics. Sometimes only one or two of these words, but "tamps" (stamps) is almost always included...oh and she calls gymnastics "tass" (class). It has been so fun to watch how much she has learned and how brave she has become. She was quite the "momma's girl" (and lets be honest, she still is), but this has definitely given her a lot more courage to venture off to do her own thing. It makes me really happy to watch when she decides to go off on her own...I'm sure this same thing will soon make me sad, but for now I love the courage and determination she has begun to develop.

This is how she used to jump...I took these first pictures around the second week we started.

The pit...so funny to watch an adult try to get out!

This is how a typical "class day" starts...there are two classes that meet at the same time and rotate through the different activites. (there are also "open gym days")

Her new favorite trick...she actually started hanging one day when we were at aquarium. Now its her second favorite thing to do besides jumping.
Running to the pit

Check out how far she is off the tramp...so much progress from when she started!!
Here new way of going down the slide...


This is what she usually starts asking for five minutes into class...
Then this...
They give them all stamps on the top of their feet and hands...and on their belly. For the rest of the day Maycee will show them to ANYONE she can!!
