Little Addison in Gymnastics

So today was the first day that Addison started her Gymnastics Class. Yes, my almost 2 year old is taking Gymnastics. She was being a little wild and was crying a lot of the time b/c all she wanted to do is have her freedom to run around, and so she wasnt too happy when I made her sit with me to listen to her teacher explain and show them how to do certain things. But hopefully she can do a little better the more we go.

This gymnastics class, though, is called Flip-A-Roo Gymnastics. The lady who instructs the class has good experience dealing with preschooled aged kids. She is very good with them and a lot of fun. Today they learned how to walk on the balance beam and hang off of one of the Gymnastic Bars.

The biggest thing they are supposed to get out of the class is hand-eye coordination, balance, basic gymnastics, and listening skills (which is probably the #1 reason I signed Addison up for the class!!) Most of yall should know my child, and she is C-R-A-Z-Y....meaning she is HYPER, VERY ACTIVE, and CANT SIT STILL for very long... So this class, as of right now, I think, is the best thing for her. She did pretty well participating in things. We just gotta get the "holding still to listen long enough" thing down. Hopefully one of these days she will.
