My Gymnastics Girl!

So, Emery has one more competition for this season. I am so proud of my baby girl.  At the beginning of her 3rd grade school year, she had taken 4 maybe 5 gymnastics classes.  We were in a better financial situation so we decided to put her in gymnastics.  I was super excited!!! So we put her in a recreational gymnastics class and it was soon discovered she was advanced.  They (the gymnastics teachers) put her in a gymnastics class that was more advanced and still she needed something more challenging.  One day, I asked about competitive gymnastics.  The coach tested her and said she was a quick learner....and at the age of 8, she was young to start.  haha! The coach said she could practice with the competitive team, since they were forming the teams for the next season.  They put her in Level 3 and a couple months later she was a Level 4.  It has been so fun to see her learn and grow.  Sadly, Emery chose not to do competitive gymnastics next year.  =( I am kindof one sad momma...but can understand.

I have a few videos of her last competition but am having problems putting them on here.  So sorry! You'll have to do with some pics. =)

Couch to 5k: Day 1

I have been feeling like my body needs to move, so I decided that I would "secretively" do a couch to 5k program. Then I thought that I could hold myself somewhat accountable if I blogged about it. So I did!
Walked for 4 min and Ran for 1. Feeling pretty good. Do have a little side stitch.
So I am out of shape and am excited to feel better about myself. I guess not so much in my weight on the scale. I have lost like 35lbs since the baby! But feeling healthy overall. So here is to feeling healthy!
