Tumbling Tot




Amelia loves to tumble, run, fall, jump, climb, basically anything that involves her potentially getting hurt. Her new school offers "Power Tots," aka gymnastics, so of course we signed her up for that. (When she turns three we can also sign her up for yoga, which is somewhat hysterical.) In the top video you can see her doing somersaults and the second video shows her "diving" in her kiddie pool.  I didn't get video of it, but she did try and combine the two and do a somersault in the pool, but the water was too deep. And yes, she does say she jumped "too high." Good to know she has some limits.

We got a paper yesterday from the Power Tots class explaining what the goals are for her class. We're a little concerned because it uses the words cartwheel, twisting, springboard and landing. Lord help us with this child. Please don't let her try any of that outside of class. Matt and I have decided we're going to have to go watch one of these classes because later classes say "side-aerials" and that just makes me nervous.

PS - Our family room was so empty because we got new carpet and it made a great running area for Amelia one evening.
