Tiny Yogis

For the past 12 weeks, Isla and I have been taking Mommy and Baby Yoga classes. I've never taken yoga before, but with my dance background, I've always been intrigued. I thought the class would be a lot of singing and cuddling and massaging babies, but as it turns out, it is really a kick you a** yoga workout. I LOVE IT!!! Our wonderful instructor, Erin, manages to keep our babies happy while simultaneously instructing us. Last week we were literally balancing on our hands with one foot on the wall and one in the air - it was crazy! We do some Mommy baby stuff too, but during much of the class the babies are playing in the center of the classroom. At the beginning of our classes Isla had to lie on a blanket and watch - now she sits in the thick of it and grabs toys from her classmates. Erin is a huge Isla fan and gives her a cuddle during every class. Isla lights up whenever she sees Erin - even on days when she misses her nap.
Sadly Monday was our last class until October... I am going to be really sad when Isla gets too big for the class!
