Gymnastics!

Maya loves her gymnastics class -- and really loves Ms. Kelly! This has been one of the best things I've enrolled her in. Her confidence level on many of the pieces of confidence has grown in just the few weeks she has been in class. I love watching her interact with Ms. Kelly, too -- she really trusts her and listens SO WELL! There are about 6 girls in her class, which is a great ratio when there are 2 teachers (sometimes) but can be a bit hectic for Kelly when she's by herself. They do a great job of keeping the girls moving, though!

This weekend was the ultimate compliment to her teacher. While hanging out at home, Maya decided to "play" gymnastics. She was Ms. Kelly and I was the student. Soooo cute!

Oh..and just when I thought it might be a "fluke" that the name Maya is/was popular for the year 2005 when Maya was born -- there's another Maya in her class of six! She has a Maya at daycare that is her age, as well. There are only 4 other 3 year old girls at her daycare. I guess I wasn't being quite as original as I thought! LOL!

An update...of sorts

Life is cruising along at an alarmingly fast speed here in Wobbe-land! I don't believe that Fall has officially arrived, but it seems like ours is booking up fast! I'll post a link to some recent pics at the end of this post ... you can skip all the blah..blah..blah if you'd like! :)

~ Maya has been taking a gymnastics class on Saturday mornings. We started out with a bribe to get her there on the first class but by the end of the 2nd class she declared that she liked it and wanted to go back. Wahooooo Maya!

~ We celebrated a traditional chinese holiday, the Moon Festival, this past Sunday. We got together with some friends and had a fabulous chinese dinner and then playtime for the girls.

~ Maya and I will be venturing out on our first ever camping trip in a few weeks. No lodges for us though, we're roughing it and going tent camping with a few other families. We will join them on Saturday after gymnastics...I'm good with our trial trip of just one night! :)

~ Next weekend I will be attending my 20 year high school reunion. Could someone please tell me how that happened so fast? Sheesh.

Among other exciting social events, Maya and I will be getting the house ready for all of the wonderful fall seasons and holidays. I'm looking forward to celebrating the 2nd anniversary of our "gotcha day" next month -- and marveling at just how cool it is to be Maya's momma!

As promised..here's a link to some pics...enjoy!
