2/6/21 – Freezing Feet

You came to my bed around 1:30am with freezing cold legs and feet. You climbed in my bed, kissed me three times and told me that you missed me and wanted to snuggle so you came to my room. Fortunately, you drifted right back off to sleep.

You woke up around 7:30am & we snuggled for a little bit before you went upstairs to look for Jackie, but she had already left. We got ready & left for gymnastics. You had a good class overall. You did much better at balance beam & your cartwheels, but did tell Coach Maddie “No” several times when she asked you to stay off one of the mats near the high bars because Coach Nickie’s class was using it and it wasn’t safe for you to be so close. I talked with Coach Tammy when we finished and she said you are frustrated with some of the skills you don’t have yet. You definitely outgrew the 3-5 year old class, but the girls in the 5-8 year old class are mostly 6-7 years old and there’s a big difference in skill. There are two other younger kids in the class and they are going to have two coaches per class so one can focus on the younger kids and one can focus on the older kids. She’s not worried about you & thinks it will help you build more confidence. I just want you to enjoy it. She said today once you started landing on your feet doing cartwheels you went from frustrated to excited so quickly.

After class, we met Chrissy & Olivia for fancy breakfast. You colored and played with her with numbers flashcards. The two of you are so cute together. She kept dropping the cards on the floor & you would get them… until Chrissy asked you (many times later) and you let out a huge sigh and said basically, I’ve picked them up a hundred times and I’m all done lol!

We went to Nordstrom and TJ Maxx. You and Daddy both got shoes and you tried to pick 10 dresses! We settled on a few and on the way to the check out we saw Coach Kirsten. You were cracking up and said just like we saw Ms. Jenny once in Publix and now we are seeing Coach Kirsten. You were so surprised! We headed home, snuggled on my bed and watched half of James & the Giant Peach while Daddy napped.

When he got up, we went outside and you played with the tables making building blocks out of them. Then you had Daddy & I coloring letters, words & pictures in accordance with your directions lol.

We went to Siesta to meet Chrissy & Olivia at the Hub for dinner. We had ice cream after then went home and went straight to bed. After being up late last night, waking up early this morning, playing hard and taking no nap you were exhausted. You were snoring by 9p!

I love you so much!
