Gymnastics Gal

Abby started taking gymnastics classes last week and absolutely LOVES them. We enrolled her for two reasons...1. Because she loves to flip, jump, twirl, bounce, run, hop, skip, whatever...she is an extremely active little thing, and 2. Because we thought it would be good for her to get to know other little girls her age. All of her friends in the ward and playgroup are boys! During her first class last week she was the only one in her class which was nice for her to get so much one-on-one attention, but kind of defeated the #2 reason why we had enrolled her in the first place. Last night though, there were two other little girls in her class and she had a blast!! She likes to come home and show us what she learned in class. So far this has included sommersaults and jumping...yes, I know what you're all thinking....we must have a future olympic gymnast on our hands, right? But she's having a great time and we are having fun watching her grow!!
Here are a couple of pictures of one of her many "boyfriends" in the ward. I hope those odds continue for Abby as she gets older. She will have a huge pool of great husbands to choose from someday!!

That sounds like a lot of fun. Abbey is so cute!

So cute! I think stuff like that is so good for them. I agree that at this age it's probably about teaching them so much more than the actual somersaults (listening, social skills, you know). I'd actually like to get Reese in gymnastics this summer. Abby's leotard is so cute.

She's already ahead of me in the boy department! :)
