Gymnastics

Little man takes gymnastics at school.  It was a new program this year which cost a bit more but was SO WORTH IT!!!  They actually brought in equipment and the kids performed more activities by far than any of the other programs that have visited the school.  Little man was so excited that we came to watch his "show."  Big sis was just about as excited to go as little man was to have us there.  We didn't know what to expect and next time we should probably invite our other family members as well to see his "performance."  Disco and I didn't even think to bring a camera other than what we had on our phones . . .

At any rate, the kiddos went through their normal activities - songs, "balance beam", bar, more songs.  It was truly a controlled chaos situation.  All of the little ones were in "overstimulation" mode with parents and extra kids everywhere.  Little man was willing to do everything until the final songs.  Then he got shy and refused to participate with his friends.  And he also refused to pick up his certificate and medal.  When it was over he was really upset that he didn't get to sing and after a lot of coaxing from his gymnastics teacher he finally did it and was much happier.  We think he just got overly excited and was tired and hungry - the program ended about an 1.5 after our normal pick up time.

Here are some of the pics from the event :)
