    Been a while

    It has been FOREVER since I have posted on here. I do still come and lurk at times. Life has been so crazy hectic...especially over the summer with the kids out of school. But they started back on the 19th (thank you Lord..lol) and now Mama can finally get some time to herself. Hope everyone is...

    WAG More than one judging table on one event..who to salute?

    I just have a quick question. Many are thinking, impossible for me, I know..lol But some meets we go to there are two judges tables on floor. Some both judges sit at the same table. When there are two tables..who do they salute when they are done? Do they salute both judges..either judge..the...

    WAG Kadee's 3rd L5 Meet

    Well..this meet went MUCH better..lol I think this is what she needed to give her a boost in her self esteem. She was starting to doubt herself a little bit. Vault, 1st Bars, 3rd (missed that dang high bar kip..again. Got it EVERYTIME in warm up..lol) Beam, 4th (fell on her handstand (of all...

    WAG Peeling feet?

    Okay, my DD (7), her feet are peeling. Mainly the balls and the heels. (more the balls than anything) She has VERY sweaty feet and hands, and is constantly in the chalk trying to keep her hands and feet "dry". I pointed out her sweat issue and her peeling feet to the Dr. Wanted to make sure she...

    WAG Love the pictures we always get from this meet. (LOTS)

    The photographer is pretty good. Seems to really know the routines so knows exactly when to snap that shot. Same as last year, I bought the CD. He said I could do whatever I want with them. The only thing I couldn't do was copy the picture he printed for me. These are some of my favorites...

    WAG 2nd Meet Report

    It's really hard for me on this one. Because she did better but her scores were lower for the most part, except beam. Everything was much cleaner. She missed the high bar kip AGAIN, and didn't fight for it this time. (she found out she didn't get credit for it anyway last time..sooo...) Other...

    WAG 2nd meet coming up this weekend

    Kadee's 2nd L5 meet is this Saturday out of state. It's been about a month since the first meet. She only scored a 29.5 (was 7.2 to 7.5 on everything..at least she was consistent..lol). She's young, and itty bitty. But she sure does give it her all...lol She had her vault over the table back...

    WAG Video of Kadee's bar routine

    I wanted to post this, to show how hard my baby fought for that high bar kip/long hang kip. The routine is not "clean". She has a pretty funky FHC in it and some form issues. But she fought so so hard for that kip. Although she didn't get credit for it. She doesn't realize that. When I asked her...

    WAG First Level 5 Meet

    Kadee had her first Level 5 meet tonight. She had some really rough spots and some times where she really shined. First was floor. The ROBHSBHS looked really bad. RO was nice, first BHS was okay..legs way apart and knees bent. Second BHS was just scary to see. She is still having this block on...

    WAG New Fears.

    Well, DD is about 3 wks out from her first meet of the season (Dec 14th~16th). The coach came to me on wednesday and said...DD has developed a fear of vault (going over the table), and of her 2 back handsprings on floor. So strong is her fear on floor that she won't even do the single BHS she...

    WAG Level 5 Vault

    Okay, my DD is 7 and will compete L5 this winter/spring. She is small for her age. (about 5% on height and weight). She gets up and over the vault, that's not an issue. (at the right height and without a spot). She may look like a sway back horse going off the back end..but she gets it done..lol...

    WAG Snowflake Grab bag

    Kadee needs a couple new leos. I prefer not to pay out the hiney for new leos, esp since she is growing like a weed right now (is that normal at 7?) Didn't really think they had a big growth spurt at that age..oh well, lol. She went from a child X-Small to a Child Medium in about 6 months. I...

    Off Topic Sleep walking.

    Seriously going to have to get alarms on the doors. Either a full home alarm system (which wouldn't be a bad idea) or some kind of contact alarms for the doors. Kadee and her sleep walking it driving me bananas. She has done it more since we moved into this house than she has her whole life...

    WAG Ankle Strengthening Fun?

    Okay, quick question. Kadee has very weak ankles. (She get's it from her Mama..poor baby)It's more her right than her left..and she is a righty. She twists/rolls it often. She has a neoprene brace she wears on it when it's hurting her. (Just a little thin, cheapy thing I got at the store for...

    Parents Think I am finally back. I hope anyway

    I say think, because I say it often and never seem to actually be back for good. Been so hectic of late. Finally have BOTH KIDS IN SCHOOL! YAY ME!!!! lol We just bought a new house the first of June. So we have been super busy with all that intails. Getting the kids enrolled then settled into...

    WAG Let's see those leos. Volume 3

    Sorry, didn't know where else to post this. Def. not a good luck thing persay. But when I went to put it in the chalk bucket it hasn't been posted in since July. So figured that wasn't the main place anymore. This seems the most active. If it's in the wrong place, let me know, and I will move...

    Books by Dominique Moceanu

    Not her biography that's coming/came out recently I just got chapter books by Dominique at Sams. They had them in packs of 2. About $7.50 per pack. They are written/geared towards the tweeny/early teen level. But if they are good readers..they can handle it at a younger age. (Kadee will be 7...

    Maybe I'm just over reacting

    But it just rubs me the wrong way. All season long the local newspaper has shown no interest in the girls. They were contacted after regionals about doing something on the girls. The gym had to supply the photos, the info..and PAY them to put this in the paper. Which by the way it was done two...
