Gymnastics Class

Pappaw Don & Nana Jane gave Marilyn Gymnastic lessons for her birthday, and the class started last week. She is in the "Turtle" class, which is a Mommy & Me style. There are six little ones in her class from 18-36 mos. There is a little course that they work through, and then they have the option to bounce, run and play on the trampolines. She had a great time bouncing and playing but her Olympic talent on the balance beam and bars have not yet developed- but it was her first day.

Showing off her new leotard



She has been practicing her forward rolls at home and hopes to blow them away this week. Thankfully this is an 8 week session, so she will have time to get the moves down. Since Gymnastics is a little hard to say, I have taken it to calling it her "Turtle Class"- I think at first she thought we were going to the zoo.. oops!

She looks so cute doing her forward rolls around the living room. Hopefully she will be more coordinated than her mother.

Great Grandma Brenton says no matter what she does, she'll be the cutest one there!

She is so cute! I love her little leotard! Where is she taking her classes? It looks like the same place Ceili took them. She loved it also! Happy Birthday Marilyn!!!

She is growing up so fast...before we know it she will be doing cart wheels not just forward rolls.
Very cute leotard.
