Drake gymnastics

Drake started gymnastics classes at the end of January. We go on Saturdays at 10:45, and he LOVES it. He plays his little heart out, and just really enjoys being around the other kids. It is not gymnastics in the traditional sense, because 1, 2, and 3 year olds aren't actually doing things on bars and beams, etc. It's more just a big play session. A parent (or responsible adult) has to be within an arms reach of each child, at all times. We wanted to do something fun with Drake, outside of normal trips to playgrounds and bouncy houses. This has turned out to be perfect. There are boys and girls, and both parents (or grandparents) can be with the child. We'll definitely be doing it with Eli as well, as soon as he's walking.



Okay, so this one is not gymnastics, but it was just so cute of him cramming his mouth full. And his beautiful blue eyes!Now, onto the gymnastics photos!

Crawling through the tunnelAnd QUITE proud of himself when he got to the other side!
Drake and Grandma in the foam pit. I tried to warn her that it was next to impossible to get out of. I still got a good laugh as they tried to come out.

Running around with a hula-hoop. For some reason, he loves carrying these around.
