Monkeys



We have taken the big girls to the gym once a week for about the past three months. When we first started I think the girls were just thrilled to be "free". Now that they are more accustomed to the gym they are really refining their skills and improving on them. When we started Sydney needed me by her side when she swung from the bar and now she does it all by herself as much and as often as possible.

One thing that I have noticed is that when they started they kept their legs straight, now they are bending their legs and bringing them up closer to the chest. I can only imagine that they will be trying to flip themselves over that bar any day now!
They tried something new today, walking like a bear on the parallel bars. Hand, hand, foot, foot. Sydney wanted to try it right away.


Lior tried it on her own, at first (the picture is blurry but you can see how brave she is)

and then only wanted her daddy and Joy to help her.


Don't think we left Jordan out she is going to the gym tomorrow where she will hang from the bar and try to pull herself up, just like the big girls. Hopefully the camera will cooperate.
