Here he is on the balance beam. Sure footed ... plus an excellent dismount at the end.
But the tumbling run is my favorite. Look at his technique; just like they taught him. Plant the feet (with a little added jump ... bonus points for difficulty), hands set, head down, then flip. Excellent! And I like how he not only does a little pointing and lecturing at the end, but completes a few extra flips of his own even after the teacher has moved on.
There was room on the tumbling mat. I can't blame him.
I'm also starting a new feature in the blogs today.Owen and I have been looking at the corn field en route to his day care, and on Monday we took this photo, the first of what will become a weekly record of how quickly the corn (and Owen) is growing.
"Knee high by the 4th of July," and then some.
