JessMom, that video was soOo touching! You can tell her coach relly loves her. I very much enjoyed watching her as a babe bloom into the adorable little lady she is today. In the video, of her first meet ever, I thought it was cute when missed the first vault but it didn't even phase her she kept on going and gave a wonderful 2nd effort. These moments caught on film are priceless!! I love it

I love this thread! The videos are great. Here's a video of my youngest daughter from when she started imitating her sister's floor routine at age 3 1/2 up until her first meet at Level 5:

oh my, BigTiny! That was so stinkin cute!! I'm so glad you got that on film, that is an instant classic, lol!

I was giggling in delight the whole time during the first routine!


I hope you don't mind I embedded it for you. When you click the youtube icon the only thing you need to put in between the code it YKq0A9YMWhc&hl

so it will look like this:

[ youtube ] YKq0A9YMWhc&hl [ /youtube ]

but without the spaces.

Thanks for sharing that adorable piece!!

LOve all these videos. Funny thing is I remember most of them from when they were first posted on YouTube and feel like I was at the meet/gym, have seen it before.

BigTiny, that was absolutely adorable. Mimi used to do the floor routine, but I never taped it. Gotta try it someday. She might be a gymmie someday, too. LOL. She looks great this season as a L5. So glad things have worked for her at her new gym, she is doing great!! What happened with your other daughter? Did she ever go back to gymnastics?

Great idea! The kids also need to see how much they have improved. I love to show my girls their "old" videos. By the way I love your videos. What program do you use?

I finally uploaded some old videos of Olivia. I created a site on Vimeo. Click on the link below. The videos there are all from Level 4, taken 2 years ago. I can't upload from home, have to do it here at work so I'll bring my camera in next week and post the mock meet video from this past weekend. Her first meet is next weekend so I'll be able to post that eventually!

Thanks to everyone for posting here. It's so awesome to see how far the girls have come.
