It was Friday morning and that means, gymnastics.
She really seems to like it and was all pumped up. We were going through our stations and came to where we were supposed to practice cartwheels. I lifted her legs up, but she must have got her finger stuck or twisted, because she immediately started crying. She was just holding it and bawling. I felt so bad. I was worried she broke it or something. Once we got her calmed down, I asked her to move it and she did without crying, so she must have just stubbed it.
We eventually went back onto the gym floor. She looked up at me and said, "Mama, I want to try it again to see if it won't hurt this time." I was so proud of her! She walked right back over to the cartwheel station and asked me to help her. I was so amazed and proud. We went through the cartwheel and did it. She yelled in happiness, "It didn't hurt this time!" My heart just melted! Love that little munchkin.
Her little friend Sydney, came and gave her a big hug to make sure she was OK, too! It was so sweet!
This evening, Jim, Reagan and I were going to go to the Family Friendly Haunted Wagon Rides at Boardman Park. We had won some free tickets from a Facebook contest. That in itself was exciting, we never win anything!
Anyway, we went last year and had a great time, so we were excited.
They had a pumpkin carve-out contest last weekend, so all the pumpkins were on display. Reagan loved looking at them. They were really cool and the people did a great job. Her favorite was wearing a scarecrow hat.
After we checked the pumpkins out, we went over to the bonfire. They had smores packets, marshmallows, and hot dog packets you could buy to roast. We just chose the plain marshmallows. Reagan helped roast them, but didn't want to eat them after they were cooked, she just wanted the plain ones. LOL! I don't think she likes that they turn black.
Next, we spent some time letting Reagan jump in the bounce house, while the other one waited in line. She loved the bounce house.
Finally, it was our turn for the wagon ride. We always make a "bah" sound when we're rough playing with Brinkley, so we told her, the people in the woods would be in their costumes making the same noise. She did great last year, but they can change in an instant, so we didn't know how she would react. We were in the front of the wagon, so we could see everything coming up. She really did get a kick out of it. She would say, "What are they doing?" and just kind of laugh. We were so proud of her!
She wasn't afraid at all.
We had a really fun evening! We were glad we went!
The photo of the day is us at the wagon rides....
Next, is Reagan with the pumpkins.
Finally, Reagan and her friend Sydney after her injury. She's still holding her little hurt finger straight out in the picture. :(
