Kaiya accomplished a huge goal in gymnastics this last week by mastering a skill called a kip on the bars. She has been working on it since summer and was so excited to finally get it (video forthcoming . . . camera is being dumb).
I was holding her hand while walking somewhere the other day and noticed that her hands felt pretty gross. Hours on the uneven bars will do that to a girl. I snapped a picture of them when we got home. Not exactly the kind of hands the boys will want to hold someday, but I think I'm OK with that. :)
She had her second meet last weekend and improved her all-around score by almost a full point. She had one little glitch on bars, but still finished fifth. She also finished sixth in the all-around. She is racking up the medals and loving every minute of it.

Great job on those awards Kaiya! When some guy sees how cute you are, the hands won't matter - he will hold them!!!
Way to go Kaiya. You look so cute with your medals hanging from your arms. If you get enough of them you won't have to go to the gym to lift weights! And Haley...I seem to recall that Doug didn't mind the calloused hands too much.
ow... my hands hurt.
