In other gymnastics news, what the hell is Bela Karolyi on, and is it available in a black market convenient to me?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
That's a bad game.
This is what I told him. But did he listen? No. Because he's a dog.
I can't dive either, and I have no childhood trauma about it. Other than screaming and wailing and not wanting to take swimming lessons.

Heh. Summer swimming lessons were an excuse to ride over on bikes, with my friends. At first, it was the only reason we could cross Alameda. And after lessons, we could han around until the pool opened! And after all that, there was all the junk food our allowances could buy at the Circle-K!

In my gym, we had all the tools for rhythmic but no one knew shit about using it. So we just played with it usually when we did summer training, or camp, or overnights (yes, sleepovers!) at the gym.

I LOVED summer swim lessons. I love them enough that I love mommy and me with N 3 times a week! So fun.
Except in Ohio, it was always COLD for lessons.
Hee! My gymnastics team!Though obviously, I should say that was my gym. Funny to see Bridget and Joe are still coaching.
Noah on the slide. Mom looking fat.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Are you nuts, Kat? You look THIN.

Nah. Those shorts are super unflattering and that top is too tight for those shorts. This pic is more flattering, at least from a clothing perspective.
(But thank you. I don't think I AM fat. But the way the shorts + that shirt looks make me look fatter than I'd like).

Thanks, sara. I like that picture too. He likes the roller slide a lot. And it's not angled steeply so it's not too scary. At OT he is crazy about the slide.
Walking by himself? Nope.

I feel ya on stuff not fitting right. Favorite skirt was threatening to walk off today in an unflattering manner. Made it look less like I'd lost weight than gained, the way it was sitting.
