This Thursday Abigail started gymnastics! I (of course) forgot my camera in her other diaper bag, but she did great! Her favorite things were the balance beam and the tunnel. The first time across the balance beam ~ which was about 3 feet off the ground ~ we had to put one foot in front of the other and show her how to do it, but the second time, she figured it out on her own. Of course, I had to hold her hands (she wouldn't let the instructor help her, mom had to), but she did it!
I'm sure you're thinking "Okay, Ashley, whatever, you're her mom, of course you think she did great". BUT let me tell you about the conversation I had with her instructor (coach?):
Instructor: Does she have older siblings at home?
Me: No. (Thinking, do I look that old?!)
Instructor: Well, she's catching on really fast, I'm impressed
Me: (thinking) YEA Abigail!!
Here are some pictures from tonight, she's practicing in her room before bed (note her adorable night gown from Gymboree ~ I love it!)
Nose to your toes
Touch your toes!
In her pretty nightgown
Okay, now a random picture from the week (mostly because I really like the dress!):

I hope you're having a great weekend!!
