Extreme sports

Sometimes I put on Sesame Street in the mornings. Sierra is not particularly interested, except to point out "Elmo! Elmo!" (she has an Elmo doll, so she recognizes that character) The point is, she's not much of a TV girl, which is way more than fine with me. She's rather read a book. Or rather, she's rather her dad or I read her a book. And another book. And another book. Until we, as the adults, are all "I can't read anymore!!"

Then, a couple weeks ago, we were watching the X-Games and she was completely captivated by the snowboarders. Mesmerized.

Now, the Olympics are on, and she has been watching downhill skiing and snowboard cross. We were watching the trials of snowboard cross yesterday afternoon and Sierra stood in front of the television yelling, "GOGOGO! GOGOGO!" Jason and I will not be surprised if she becomes an extreme athlete.

Wait! Becomes? She's already an extremely athlete. She participates in the sports of ottoman jumping

And staircase bouldering.
Check out those moves!

  1. The only show that Ellie will watch is Sesame Street (she is very keen on the abc's and likes to call Elmo "Mo"). She LOVES the India Arie and Elmo sings the ABCs on you tube. I like the count singing the Batty Bat song on You tube. The Arie one has been known to help her fall asleep (cackles).
    Your house is so tidy. You should come clean mine. ;)
    And I am not surprised by your little Olympian in training! Cute
