Gymboree Play






Saturday morning, Collin and Matthew met at Gymboree to play since it was Open Gym day (when any of the students can play on the equipment). The thought was this would wear them out so that they would take a long nap that day. I don't know if it worked for Matthew but it did not for Collin. After playing for almost 2 hours, I thought the little guy would be pooped....or at least ready for a snack. He did not want either and want not ready to go. He was having too much fun crawling through the tunnels, climbing up the slides (yep, he slid down them last week so it was time to climb up them this time I guess), throwing the balls, going for a ride on the pull-cart and crawling across the bridge. Most of the time, he and Matthew did not play together. They did play side-by-side a few times. Once some of the older kids arrived, Collin was more interested in watching them play and trying to figure out how he could do the same thing. They were getting annoyed with him because he was in their way a few times. They did politely ask him to move but he just stared.

After Gymboree, we left to visit daddy's new bike shop. WOW!!! What a difference location, a large parking lot, new paint, flooring, fixtures and space makes. The customers coming in for a visit had only positive things to say.

Mimi stopped by the shop to work a little. Before she did that, we went to lunch. Collin ate an entire plate of mixed fruit like he had not eaten in days. I guess all of that playing did make him hungry.
