Our girls had team pictures done on Friday, I bought this one of my girl, love it so much!

I know I am preaching to the choir here...but it really is the only "safe" place to do it, and where I know you all will get it. The guilt, oh the guilt. I know my girl has had it relatively mild in regards to injuries, but she did have elbow surgery in the past Spring, and it absolutely kills...

We are headed to Florida (Boca Raton area) tomorrow and my girls when I asked them what they wanted to do while we were there, said they really wanted to attend an open gym. Not necessarily to do any tricks or anything, but to condition, and check out a different gym. Middle daughter competed...

http://www.nuvo.net/GuestVoices/archives/2014/03/18/your-kid-and-my-kid-are-not-playing-in-the-pros I have been guilty of the occasional CGM moments, but not quite this paricular brand of crazy.:p You can substitute baseball or football player for gymnast.

At this point I can only laugh, otherwise I would cry. One of our cats apparently got locked in my girls bedroom, and during that time had to go poop...yep, right in the closet, on top of her competition wear. Leotard, warm ups, cat nailed it all. Cat scat on everything.:confused: I threw it...

I was wondering if anyone happen to know who did the photography for this meet this weekend? TIA!:)

That breaks down what the gymnast is doing step by step. I think it may have been posted by iwannacoach. My amateurish searching skills are eluding me... TIA :)

I made this set today for American Girl sized dolls- the real version is retired and goes for $150 and up in Ebay. This is a prototype that I am going to fancy up a bit by painting the bar frame, staining the dowels, and improving the grips. It is solid and well made- if I must say so myself!:p...

I was just thinking how ingrained things are to our young gymnasts... My girl wiped out at bars last week and ended up landing on her tummy on the mats. It was a freaky sort of fall and she wasn't hurt, but she was laying there and the next thing she does is salute. She also was doing some...

I couldn't afford a real shadowbox frame, so I used one of the plastic box frames, I mounted it on black velvet, and added a little bling...She loves it!:D (Sorry, can't take the second attachment of for some reason).

I have a curious (non-obsessive) question about these 2 floor routines. There was nearly a full point difference in the 2, and I just don't see the differences-however, I am not a judge, nor very good at spotting the intricacies involved. But I am curious...:p She is a level 5 age 9 if that...

:( SO upse! Does anyone have a link to it? I searched but haven't been able to find it. TIA!

That would make me so happy.:)

Okay - can you explain how qualifications work for individual medals? I looked at the scoreboards and I am not understanding how some people with lower scores qualified for events over people with higher scores. It is a maximum of 2 per team? Don't laugh, but what the heck is an R? A reservist...

She is getting picked up on Sunday and I can't wait to see her!!!:D This is her first time ever away from home for more than 2 nights (she is 9) and she is having the time of her life. I have spoken to her (briefly) every day, and I get in about 2 mins and then she informs that she is busy and...

My girl is going to Woodward for the first time this year, and I am trying to figure out what to pack all her stuff in. I've been told that there really isn't enough room for the typical camp trunk. I am thinking that a regular suitcase with wheels and a handle will do - with her sleeping bag...

My 9yo got her first pair of grips yesterday, and apparently it is a bit deal!:p DH picked her up, and she came prancing in with them last night. She is a level 5, and I guess once they start working on level 6 bar skills, and they are needed they get them. Anyway, just had to share!:)

At some point I think I was starting to turn into one of "those parents", the ones that interrogate their child after gym practice. I could see that it was making my girl uncomfortable but I was just so desperate to know what was going on with her during her 16 hours a week away from home. I...

Not mine;) It is my 9yo's hamstring that has been bothering her intermittently for the last 2-3 weeks. She doesn't remember exactly when it happened, but it was at gym. She is extremely flexible, which her coaches have said could have contributed to her straining it. She will be fine one...

Good grief!!! I can't wait for Jaden to get back to gym tomorrow. She.has.been.driving.me.CRAZY!!! Literally bouncing off the walls!!! They were off last week and tomorrow is her first day back and I.CAN'T.WAIT!!!:tongue:
