Ice Skating 77

This is the 1st ice skating lesson for March 2017 but we made it a point to have weekly ice time, even the last weekend when I was in Barcelona. Lil Shauna was given the choice to skip ice time and she opted to do so alone while Daddy Lim was in the dental clinic with Zaky. I had to applaude her for that. By the way, Zaky was much braver when he went for his 2nd nerves treatment with Daddy Lim. There was no tears when given the jab. It must be me.

While shopping in Barcelona, ah yee spotted this furry jacket and insisted to buy it for Lil Shauna. She thinks it would be perfect for the little girl to wear during ice skating. I knew Lil Shauna would love it bcos she likes anything furry, shiny or pink. It is so easy to guess her taste. There had been occasions where she asked to buy such clothing too but I never. Why? Bcos I dont think they would withstand Popo's washing. Lol. Ah yee was adamant, even suggesting that I hid it from Popo and find a way to wash it only after several wears. I have to admit that the jacket is really pretty and value for $$ given that it was on sale.

So, ah yee bought it and it took the 17 hours plane ride with me back to sunny Singapore. Lil Shauna was thrilled, as expected. I of course remembered to bring it for ice skating today and made her modeled for pictures before she hit the ice.

It is fitting just nicely now. It may not last long given how quickly she is growing. Maybe we can pass it down; provided that the fur is still intact after the washes. Hehe.

Lil Shauna was initially concerned that it wouldnt protect her with adequate warmth bcos her arms were exposed. It is probably meant for winter bcos she asked to take it off shortly after hitting the ice. Lol. Then she wore it again bcos it was too cold and probably too pretty to be sitting on the bag.

The public rink was super crowded today. There was also a bday party and it was full of people. The crew stopped Lil Shauna from practicing her jumps just in case someone gets hurt. She headed over to the 1/3 for more practice before lesson. I particularly love her waltz jumps today; how she arched her back and hold up her leg up during landing. She thinks that she hit some loop jumps today. I can't tell anymore if she complete a full circle.

Class was alright. At some point, I saw her tugging at the jacket and offered to take it for her but she rejected. Teacher Raymond said that her loop jump is progressing well and taught her the flip jump. She definitely needed more practice to nail that.

The tugging continued until the end of the lesson and she said that she was so warm when she left the rink. Lol. She was perspiring. I cant tell if it is bcos the jacket or she worked extra hard today. I would like to think that it is the latter.
