We had our first day of gymnastics today.
Everyone had fun. We started as one big crowd (Baby Bears and
3yr olds) for a few minutes of “warm up” then split into two
groups. Lex did not like the warm up and started crying, but
when we split up his teacher came over and asked him to join
her group and away he went. Like a big boy! I did the other
circuit with Eve and she loved it. I did have to catch her once
or twice as she tried to make a break for the giant trampoline,
but overall she did a great job of staying on track. The
teacher said that Lex did a great job and just needs to work on
staying in line and taking turns. I noticed a few times when
she introduced a new activity he got so excited he jumped right
to the head of the line to go first. I guess if that’s the only
problem then we’re doing ok :) (sorry about the picture quality.
my camera had trouble taking a picture indoors at such a
distance)
As we were
waiting for class to start, a little boy (20mo) was playing
with Eve and trying to rub her head. His mom kept telling him
to keep his hands to himself, until I told her it was ok and
that Eve’s head is like a magnet for rubs… everyone feels the
urge to rub her head as they walk by :) This little boy rubbed
her head and then kissed her arm. She’s definitely attracting
them young. We went to a party this weekend (baby Lyndsey
turned 1yr!) and a little boy (maybe 2yr) was fussing about
something, but when he saw Eve he stopped, smiled, kissed her
head, then walked away. He came back a few minutes later and
kissed her head again. We’re going to have to keep a close eye
on her…
And speaking of Eve’s head, I
think we can officially say the hair is growing! I wouldn’t
call it long, flowing locks just yet (ok, not even long enough
to get a good picture) but it’s definitely starting to come in.
You can mess up her hair and yesterday she got sand in her
hair. Normally that’s not exactly an accomplishment, but we
took it as a good sign that she had enough hair to get sand in
it :)
That’s all for now. Gotta go clean
my house :( I had an AWESOME Pampered Chef party yesterday and
I have two more events tonight and tomorrow night (not shows,
but meetings and training). Busy, busy.
