My Little Gymnast


7
Alannah started gymnastics a few months ago, shortly after her 3rd birthday.  As much as I want her to stay little, I couldn’t wait for her to turn 3 so she could get involved in some recreational activities.  We were a little worried because she tends to be shy and reserved, especially in new situations with unfamiliar people.  She did great on her first day! She walked right to the mat with the other girls!  Here she is on her first day(sorry for the poor quality photos)…

She absolutely loves it! And she’s really good! I know I may be a little biased, but her teacher, has said several times that she’s very good for her age. A couple weeks ago she said Alannah is the smallest person she’s ever seen do a cartwheel.  She’s even advanced to the next class already.  It’s so awesome to see her progress from week to week. She learns quickly and is very flexible.  Who knows…we may have a future olympian on our hands :)
