I just had to take a picture of Hailey tonight just in case as she gets older she grows out of this condition. When Hailey was around two I noticed that she had double jointed arms. It disturbs me sometimes and amuses me at other times. It is particularly hard for her to straighten her arms correctly when she is in gymnastics when they put them up in the air when they are finished a move or when she is in ballet doing different positions. On the other hand, having double jointed arms has its advantages as well. She can even pop her shoulders out of place. Gross! When she was three she was doing laps around the house and managed to run into the wall hitting her arm. She was crying about her arm. It took us a few seconds to realize it wasn't broken and that was her arm naturally.
Tonight I watched her through the window at her dance rehearsal and got tickled about those arms. I also picked a few cute ones when they took class pictures a few weeks ago just because of her arms. I have come to love this little quirk about Miss Hailey Rae!
