Joshi has been a hula hooping queen lately. She did so well this summer on the hoop she has, that when we saw some big ones at the craft fair this weekend we bought 2 more. The biggest one is almost as tall as her ! She can now do 2 hoops at once and is trying to perfect a 3 hoop trick. The third is a small hoop on her arm. Pic below of the 3 hoop trick.
Last week was the first time we went roller skating at a rink, since Joshi really learned to skate. She has been skating on the back deck with the skates she got for her birthday. But she finally got to show her stuff at the rink. Billi almost got the hang of it before we left.
Three weeks ago Joshi took her training wheels off. She noticed a few of her friends at the park 2 wheeling and didn't want to be left behind. I thought since Joshi is a little scaredy cat it was going to be an ordeal. But 1 and 1/2 days later and she was an independent biker. I think its great that she has had all these successes during the summer. She needed some more confidence ( in things other than her sense of style)
