Olympic Hopeful: 2024
This year, Grammy and Grandpapa came with us to our annual Tumblerific event at Infinity Gymnastics. There were a few little tykes this year, so they opened a new area of the gym specifically for them. It was absolutely perfect for Alexander. Mats, tunnels, slides, rings, a climbing wall, trampolines, and fun pictures on the wall- all just for them. And Alexander lost no time flashing his talents and skills. He scaled right up the climbing wall and spent some quality time on the slide. He even impressed the coach on the rings the way he picked up his legs to swing instead of just dropping them back like most kids do. He had good times hopping with Grandpapa down the tumbletrack, and later just watching the 'big guys' compete in the obstacle course. At the end, Papa and even Mama and Sam all climbed in the foam pit for Alexander and little David to do some jumping-in. It was a fun evening for friends, for family and all the active running, hopping, giggles, and play that is so very Alexander.
Yes Alexander was quite amazing to watch, , just no inhibitions at all about climbing, jumping, swinging. He has quite the strength, agility, and ability for only 23monts of age. . . will need to encourage this further with a gymnastics class or 2 in the fall. love gma, gpapa
