Play Time!

Carson is officially enrolled at Gymboree. I realize we are paying money for him to play for an hour but it's good for him to be around other kids his age, and it's good for us - we might make some friends! haha

Quick breakdown for those that don't what this is. It's an indoor play area for kids. They have certain classes for different age groups that include free play - where they just run around and explore and some structured play where every sits in a circle, sings songs, plays w/ toys, etc.

Last week was Carson's first Gymboree class and I was able to join the boys!! We weren't sure how we would do. In fact, we were worried that he would be clinging to us the entire time. Boy, were we wrong! The second we opened the door to the play area, he took off! Throwing balls, climbing up ladders, sliding down slides! He loved it! And, to make it even better, he kept looking back and giving us such a proud smile, like "hey guys, look at me - did you see that!" Adorable!!!

He and the other little ones (10 moths-16 months) didn't really interact much. If their paths did cross, they just paused, looked at each other and then went their separate ways! Kind of funny!

Carson and I went back on Saturday - just me and him. Again, he had a blast! So, I say it's well worth it! He's growing up so fast....it's scary!
