Gymnastics + Date Night

We took Lucy to her very first gymnastics class on Friday. We are trying out gymnastics and swimming to see which one she loves more. She is a pretty big fan of the water, she will take a good 45 minute bath on some nights. She also loves loves loves to climb on everything so we are pretty torn which one will be best for her at this stage right now. We thought about switching every other month from gymnastics to swimming. 

The class went really well, we were told that most kids cry the first couple classes so to take that into consideration before making our decision. As soon as we put Lucy down she hit the ground running, the girl has NO FEAR. She didn't understand that she had to follow instructions she just wanted to run and play with whatever she wanted. That was one thing that made me a little nervous about the class. It seemed like the class was either right on point for Lucy's age or way over her head. The instructor said even if she isn't doing things on her own finding the coordination and going through the movements is really good for her. 

The trampoline was definitely the favorite 

We tried the balance beam, she was more focused on what all the other kids were doing. 

I think she thoroughly enjoyed being able to climb on EVERYTHING in sight. 

I took a few videos but for some reason my computer always gives me the hardest time trying to load it onto the blog. I will work on that and hopefully post soon. She did hit two kids :( I was so disappointed, and I couldn't grab her so I couldn't pull her aside to talk with her so I felt like she totally thought she got away with it. I will hopefully be able to talk to her next time so she knows that's not okay. 

After gymnastics Lucy took a nice long nap.. We were very thankful and happy for that, It was a nice little treat for Alex and I. It's always nice and refreshing when she takes a nice long nap. We were planning on going on a date so I was able to get ready without Lucy taking every.single.item. out of my makeup drawer. 

 Bet you can't guess where we went? ;)

We wanted to go bowling after but.. there was league... I mean really a Friday night? Of all the nights I think it should be a week day so those of us who go bowling once a year can actually bowl on a Friday night ;) So since we couldn't bowl we decided to snap a few pictures. We were dying laughing.. Especially because everyone can see you as they walk by.. and we were being complete nerds. 

All in all it was a good day :) 

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend
