Ally really is a happy girl. She had a great time with Grandma Debbie last week. Ally was so sad to see Debbie leave on Saturday morning she wouldn't talk to her in the car on the way to the airport. But Friday night Ally danced around wearing her crown and twirling in her new pink twirl sundress. After the dancing Ally and Grandma played "bus" Debbie was the bus driver who driver Ally and Junie B Jones all over, to school, camping, to swimming lessons, to the store. It went on and on and on. It was great to see, and Ally really enjoyed the Junie B Jones books that grandma brought her, and she giggled when ever Debbie called her Ally S _____.
Taking a break from dancing for a picture with Grandma and Mama
Cousin Jesse from Hawaii came to visit this week too - he and Ally had a blast playing a very long pretend game of Cat in the Hat. Becky was the Cat, Ally was Sally and Jesse was Nick.
Having fun at this month's cooking class.
We bought Ally her first pair of goggle this week. She has a new swimming class and the teacher suggested goggles for helping Ally to become more comfortable putting her whole face in the water. Ally is taking lessons with her friends Erik, Stella and Andy from school.
She loves the goggles
especially when mama splashes water in her face
so happy and so much funNo photos for this next bit but I wanted to write about Ally and gymnastics. She had an evaluation session on Saturday. She has been invited to be in an advanced program and they
asked that she come to evaluations so they could see her skills. It was scheduled for 2 hours, but in the end was only about 90 minutes. 90 fun filled fabulous minutes for Ally. Seriously she loved every thing. It was Ally and one other little girl and then about 8 big girls. They all warmed up together and then did basic tumbling skills. Forward and backward somersaults - Ally kept up with the big girls and held her own we were quite impressed She can also balance well and do a split as well. She practiced her cart wheels for about 20 minutes and then moved on to the balance beam and then the bars. Becky and I watched amazed at what Ally can do. Every time Ally came out for a water break she would run over to us suck down a few sips from her water bottle and race back into the gym, a huge smile on her face the entire time. I smile just thinking about her joy and pleasure during the experience.
