Monkey girl

Gif Created on Make A Gif
Pretty much from the time that she's been able to grasp things, Ryanne has loved monkey bars. She's been getting closer to be able to do to the ones at the park by herself, but the spacing was really wide.

We went to the park yesterday and she went nuts. She went the full length once or twice. She more enjoyed going about half way and then sliding down the support poles. The ones in the middle don't have bars at the bottom so are less risk for injuring yourself. (Though they do have screws that stick out and she tagged herself at one point. When I went to go check on her she said, "I'M fine. I'm FINE." When I started to walk away, she yelled, "But my vulva is NOT fine" so I went back.)

Most impressive to me is that she's really figured out how the inertia works. She was working her legs to help her get more distance. She would get tired and hang for a bit and then swing until she got the momentum to move again. It was really impressive.

Plus, she was giggling like a fiend, which always makes mama's heart happy.
