Olympics

I recorded the Olympics and then after Maylee went to bed, I would fast forward and watch the parts I wanted to.  If I thought she might like to watch a certain sport, then I would show her the next day.  One day, I thought she might like to watch the women's gymnastics.  As I was fast forwarding to get to that part, she said "Stop Mom! Stop!"  Women's synchronized springboard diving caught her attention.  (I showed her the gymnastics too, but she didn't care for it)  For days, she would ask to watch the diving.  She also tried to dive off our couch twice...she learned the hard wood floor is not a soft landing. Maylee also has asked for me to take her to "diving school."

Maylee was also a fan of synchronized swimming, or as she calls it "swim dancing."  She ran to her room and came back out with an Easter bonnet as her "swim hat."  She was getting frustrated that it wouldn't stay on as she was trying to mimic them, so I found her a knit hat downstairs in the winter gear that worked better.  I was able to capture some moments of her copying the "swim dancers."
