Tuesday's Adventures

On Tuesday Emily had her third tumbling class and since Mimi was in town she was able to watch and take pictures!  It is so fun to see Emily change each class - this time participating more than the prior two weeks.  During the warm up Emily stretched to touch her toes, 
and stretched out for a back bend with the help of Mama and Miss Jennifer.
For the last 10 minutes of class the kids complete an obstacle course and are free to roam and play with/do what they want.  Emily likes running (everyone knew that one!) and "jumping" on the spring board,
walking on the balance beam, 
swinging like a monkey, 
and doing a forward roll on the wedge.
Emily and I each have two friends in the class and Mimi got a picture of us with Jessica and Cooper at the end.  Emily had her arm around Cooper's back - it was really cute.  (Too bad Laura and Ben were out sick this week!)
That afternoon Emily read some books with Mimi.  She was very cooperative and gave a big smile when I asked her to...
Here she is saying "owl" since we asked her to tell Magic what animal was on the page.  She didn't necessarily like how close Magic got... 
and this is when she was telling Magic to "look" at the book.  So nice of her to demonstrate what she meant!
Soon after, we were off to the park.  Emily liked walking Magic around the park on the leash...

and in general had a great time!
Strangely enough, Emily was in bed and sound asleep pretty early on Tuesday night.
