Gymnasts

After a wee bit of arm twisting (the old gymnast twisting the chiropractor's arm :) Hadley & Piper began gymnastics at the start of the new year.  While it comes to a close this week, as we make room for the start of swimming lessons, they have absolutely LOVED it.  And so have I... the smell of bare feet mixed with chalk, the twirl of a colorful leotard on the beam, having an awesome indoor activity to run some energy off during the coldest winter yet, but I have also appreciated watching both of the girls' personalities shine through in this new venture.  Hadley... quick to smile, anxious to be first, and fast through the motions; in other words a little heedless but happy.  Piper... little apprehensive, eyes & ears wide open, and trying to do exactly what the coach says; in other words very focused but happy to be there too.

And Bryndel has had a glimpse of what's to come... eating snacks and trying to sit quiet in Mom's lap while watching her big sisters :)
