Taylor has been working really hard at his Judo class, and received another promotion this week to 2nd degree Yellow Belt. (sorry the pics are blurry, but the lighting was horrible and my lens doesn't have that great of a zoom..another subtle hint to DH..Christmas is just around the corner, a 24-70mm would be great! ha in my dreams!)
This is Taylor receiving his belt from his Sensei. I really enjoy watching these kids each week and the interaction the Sensei has with them. I believe he cares about each child individually and it shows. Sensei Pat was a 2 time Olympian and has trained some amazing athletes that have also gone to the Olympics. I will be sad when we move, because I'm not sure we will be able to find a Judo organization quite like this one.
The kids are supposed to tie their own belts, but for the sake of time Sensei tied them for them, as he talked about the accomplishments of each child that received a promotion.
Talyor looks a bit overwhelmed here...I love the look on his face!
Now why won't he smile for me like this all the time???
Taylor and his good friend Kason...they started together, and enjoy the competion they have with eachother. They are very good about only practicing their Judo at class or on the trampoline.
We'll see how long until he makes it to the next level...ORANGE.

I'm at my in-laws house, so if that previous comment said something like HPfoyster, it was from me!
I love this post. Your little Taylor is so fun. What a great accomplishment!
That takes a lot of dedication and self control. I'm so proud of him for moving up to the next belt! He still looks like he's really enjoying Judo! Way to go, Tay!
