Anna’s Bar Flip
Anna did a flip over the bar at gymnastics today all by herself! Wish I had video, but I snapped two pics while she was doing it:
It’s amazing to see the progress since she started in April, about two and a half months ago. She wouldn’t push up on the bar at all when she first started, definitely wouldn’t flip over on her own. She also could barely push her back off the floor when trying to do a backbend (bridge) and now can push up so her head is off of the floor. She can almost kick up to vertical in a handstand too, though she doesn’t get the bottom leg all the way up yet. Here’s one she did at the park the other day.
They learn so quick at this age! And she’s still enjoying it too which is great.
We’re packing up today to head off to Seattle tomorrow. We’ll be gone for two weeks. I’ll try to blog from there but probably won’t. My blogs are few and far between these days…
