Jaden our Superstar!

Yesterday was Jaden's "show" at her gymnastics class at The Little Gym. This was the first time that we got to go inside the gym itself (instead of the waiting room) to see her show her skills. I've enjoyed watching her all semester from the big waiting room windows, but being in the room with her was even better! Jaden did her bar routine, beam routine and a floor routine. She did great at all three, and loved receiving praise for doing so well!

Mommy, Daddy, Sienna, Aunt Lindsey, Aunt Kim, Grandma Jan & Piper all got to watch Jaden. She got a balloon and some princess stickers afterwards for a job VERY well done!

Here is Jaden all ready to go:

We curled her hair in rollers and Jaden was very excited to have CURLS!

Bar Routine w/ Teacher Amber:

Showing us her "bear walk":

Doing a pull-over on the bar (We were especially excited to see this performed b/c Jaden had been very nervous about doing one. She ended up doing THREE for us--go Jaden!)

Sienna couldn't resist joining in a bit :) Her "show" is tonight and we'll be sure to post photos!

Beam Routine w/ Teacher Kristin:

Unfortunately, I was too slow snapping my camera and didn't get a pic of Jaden's HIGH kicks on the beam :-( She had the highest kicks of the whole class though for sure!

Showing us her "Super Girl" on the bar!

Floor Routine w/ Teacher Carol:

After class, Jaden and her classmates were all awarded medals for their progress this semester. Here is Jaden waving to the crowd after she got her medal!

Next year at The Little Gym Jaden has decided to try out cheerleading again, and there will be a gymnastics portion of each class. It is so amazing to see how far she has come this year and I can't wait to see how she progresses in her next class!
