You know, I’ve never gotten into hula hooping culture— thats a thing, right? Hoopers— thats the term? I’m not sure. I mean, I can probably count on one hand the amount of times I’ve hula hooped before this month. But not very long ago I bought a hula hoop for Marlowe. I realized it was much too big (but not half bad for me) and found her a toddler sized one— well, after days and days of practice (grumpy practice— we’re both perfectionists that HATE doing things we’re not good at)— the kid picked it up, like a pro. I don’t really have much to say, I just wanted to share these photos Hannah took, because I love them so much—-  and really, it’s pretty rad how awesome my three year old is at hula hooping– and that I’m apparently not half bad too!  But her? She’s awesome. Here’s a (cell phone quality) video I took 3-ish weeks ago— and honestly, she’s even better now.


So yeah, just some cuteness for your wednesday 😉 Happy mid-week, friends.

  12. i love hooping. it has become the only 'me' part of my day, and it's definitely a stress reliever for me. i love dancing, although i'm not very coordinated. i feel like using a hoop lets me get the best of both worlds, without looking like a complete moron.
