He's a Tumblin' Man




We signed Ethan up for a tumbling class recently because we felt he needed to grow in a few areas. For one, he needs to toughen up....he seems to have a pretty serious case of wuss-itis going on and we're hoping this will help nip it in the bud. Secondly, I don't know if I've ever seen a little kid that is as coordinated as he is, and yet he is not limber at all. Maybe this will help loosen up those muscles so the poor kid can touch his toes!! And lastly, how can running around, getting exercise, socializing, and learning some new skills be a bad thing?? He's actually really buff...I had no idea he could walk around on his hands for as long as he did. And I have to admit that it's the cutest thing when he jumps and and yells across the gym, "I did it, Mommy!! I did it!!" Ahh. These are the times that it's so rewarding being a parent.

Oh, that looks like SO much fun! I can't wait until Carter gets old enough to start playing sports and stuff.

So when does he start on the balance beam? Uneven bars? Pummel horse?
