Open Gym!

The gym that Aleah and Cade go to has open gym on Wednesday mornings.  It is only $2.  I love it!  It gives me a chance to coach my two cute kids.  They both are quick learners and I love coaching them.  We have a lot of fun at open gym.

This is Cade's forward roll.

This is Aleah's forward roll.

Cade does his handstands by putting his hands on the ground and then lifting up one leg.

Aleah can now get her feet together in the air and step down into a lunge, amazing!

This is Cade's cartwheel.  He does pretty good at getting his feet off the ground and as he does it he says, "Rainbow!".

This is Aleah's cartwheel, her legs are usually straighter than this.  She usually does her handstands starting with her left foot and her cartwheels starting with her right foot.  Such an ambidextrous girl!

Aleah kicked over the bar all by herself.  She was so excited and so was I!

Aleah loves the beam.  Her new class only does two events each week.  On the weeks that they don't do beam she always says, "We didn't do beam today." with a sad face.  On the way to gymnastics she always says, "I hope we get to do beam today!".  She has been working on forward rolls on the low beam.  She can do it all by herself when there are mats on the sides.

Cade also likes the beam and loves trying to walk on the low beams all by himself.

At the end we always have to practice jumping into the pit!
