Cartwheels

Before Katelyn was 3 years old she taught herself to do cartwheels. She got so good at them that I tried to teach her how to do a handstand. Well, once she started doing handstands, for some strange reason, she couldn't do cartwheels anymore. No matter how hard she tried she just couldn't do a cartwheel. We finally decided to put her in a little gymnastics class. The teacher told us that you're supposed to start with handstands and then cartwheels, or it messes them up. Now, how was I supposed to know that!?! Anyway, they got her straightened out so she could do both again. They decided to move her up to the older girl gymnastics class because the other girls in her class were just barely learning to do somersaults. It's fun to watch her because she gets so excited when she's doing her gymnastics. She really enjoys it. Everywhere we go, whether it's in a store, in a parking lot, or a restaurant, if you give her a few feet she'll start doing cartwheels. I can't get her to stop! :)

I didn't want to leave her out of the video action, so here's a clip of her practicing her cartwheels in her pajamas.
