EXTRA CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES....

Taylor is starting early following in her Mommy and Daddy's footsteps. Her extra-curricular activities are stacking up!! We are trying not to let her overextend herself, but she just has so much fun!!!

We were getting to a point where Gymboree just wasn't enough for Taylor. I think there was not enough structure, but if you were to watch Taylor, it looked like she was just bored. So, a few weeks ago, Taylor made the switch over to gymnastics at Jills!! And what a great decision!

She LOVES doing the warm up stretch, bouncing her butterfly legs, blasting off on the rocket ship, and jumping into a star, then a popsicle...
So far, Taylor is not to into the floor work, especially backwards rolls. I guess she gets that from her mommy. But with every class, she is getting better...
The beam and bars are her favorite! She hurries across the beam like its nothing. Taylor is crazy strong, crossing the monkey bars and hanging on extra long before dropping to the mat...
And as if gymnastics wasn't enough to give a 19 month old a reason for a good night's sleep, this week Taylor started swim lessons at the Swim School! As soon as we walked into the pool area, she was ready to jump into the 'wager'!!Taylor and Daddy did a little bit of splashing...
Then, Taylor learned how to kick her feet to push herself to a toy...
Taylor was NOT a fan of floating on her back...
Oh goodness, are we swimming already? Well, kind of, just from the teacher's arms to the Daddy's.
She was so sad to leave. In fact, she was devastated. Taylor cried most of the way home!
Don't worry, Taylor, we will do it all again next week!!!!!
