return to the little gym

We are back at The Little Gym for a weekly class! Ethan is now a big Beast and has been LOVING the class each week where we get to work on new skills to help with balance, coordination, strength and have a lot of fun. Yesterday was a special treat because Pete was able to join us for the class on Valentine's Day! Here are a few snapshots of all the fun that was had!

At the start of each class Ethan does a great job of sitting and waiting for everything to get started. It's fun to see how he is learning routine.
Here we are practicing our "jumping."
And somersaults. Ethan LOVES doing somersaults.
We were especially glad dad was with since all the kiddos were supposed to take a ride on their parent's backs!
Hanging out on the parachute.
There are two things right now that Ethan wants to do over and over during our "explore time." One is the balance beam.
The other is hanging on the bar. The slight problem with this one is that Ethan is so tall that his feet often touch the ground and he can't really hang.
Luckily there are two different bars and he can sometimes hang on the other one, although he still can touch on his tippy toes.
Here he is with his friend Violet.
Just look at how excited our little man is!
