Toe Touches, Yes Moms can Still Do them!

Submitted by on June 1, 2009 – 1:32 pm15 Comments

Ahh reliving my glory days as a cheerleader? Enrolled in an adult gymnastics class? Excited because my daughter is finally sleeping through the night? Well that last one really could be the reason I go full split in the air but this was for a kids birthday party actually LOL.

Yesterday was my little cousins birthday party and you better believe I got in on the action. It took a little while for me to brave up but once I did there was no stopping me. I was all about having fun. Balance Beam…check. Trampoline…check. Round off back handspring, back layout….not so check but I did think about doing it. Then the common sense side of my brain kicked in and I realized it may not be the greatest thing for me to break any part of my body so I refrained.

While we were there I got a little nostalgic and started thinking how much I loved cheering, dancing and gymnastics. So I think I am going to look for some adult dance and gymnastics class. I know for sure I can find the adult ballet classes, not real sure on the gymnastic classes LOL. If not my kids had a blast and we may enroll them so they will at least get to tumble.

On the child sleeping note, yes my daughter has finally slept through the night the last two nights, I kid you not I thought I was in heaven. Let’s hope this sticks ;)

So what I want to know from you today, what is something you participated in that you miss? Something from your youth :) . Have a great Monday and why not do a toe touch today, it’s a beautiful day for it LOL.

    You’re so funny. I have been looking for dance classes around here too, if you find any. Especially with SYTYCD on again. It always makes me miss dancing.

    Great video!

    And so congrats on your daughter sleeping through the night! My two youngest (22 months and 7 months) have yet to master this feat and I am so over 2 am, 3 am, and 4 am feedings, diaper changes, and screaming!

    Well I’ll go first I guess! I loved cheerleading! I miss the practices, learning new routines, all the fun at football games and I haven’t done it in a LONG time. That looked like so much fun!!!

    You win for this! Love it! Definitely find you a class – smiles!

    I started playing tennis again; taking lessons and playing on a team! It's great exercise and fun to be competitive again.

    i did gymnastics in jr high/high school. i sucked at tumbling, but i was a whiz at the uneven parallel bars. i’ve always thought how awesome it would be to get back into it (for fun and exercise, not competition). someone should offer adult gymnastics “classes” for all the moms like us.
