Lots of times! K wanted this one in particular to go on blog.
M discovered yesterday that she can now do this. My guess is that gymnastics has helped improve her strength, and I said as much to K, who thought she might try it sometime soon.
And of course she likes to climb this tree. Can you spot her?
She's about here.
You can just about make out her head in this close up take immediately afterwards.
Then we headed home with hot chocolate and Fantastia on dvd. K & M both loved it (except the last part, which they weren't so keen on), I must admit that I fell asleep (I'm fighting a chest infection, so will plead that as an excuse).
Before all that though, it was the monthly ice-skating meet. For the first time I didn't skate with the girls (see above), but they clearly didn't need me. M was concentrating on increasing her speed and doing a pretty good job. K decided today was the day to try skating backwards and again was doing really well. She tends to wait until she thinks she's ready to try new things, whether physical or otherwise, before giving them a go. Occasionally a nudge will encourage her to try something, but more often than not it results in digging on heels, so I've learned that it's usually best to wait for her to make the decision.
