Gymnastics!

This past Friday was Kai's first gymnastics class! He had such a blast! We had gone on Wednesday to sign up, and he was so sad that we couldn't stay and "play". And by sad, I mean he threw a big-ole 2 year old tantrum when we had to leave. I tried to explain that we would be back in 2 days to play, but he didn't quite seem to get it.
When we arrived on Friday morning, he greeted his teacher with a huge hug. (He's turning into quite the little hugger) True to form, after only a few minutes, he was running around the gym screaming and playing with the other children. As you can imagine for a class of 18-36 month olds there was not a lot of structure, but there was a lot of FUN, and a lot of happy giggles! We had  a short period stretching (in which I only had to run after K and bring him back to the appropriate area once or twice), everyone lined up and made their way through the obstacle course. I was pretty impressed with some of these little kids' skills, and hope after a few times in class K will catch onto what the equipment is used for. 
But mostly, I was happy he enjoyed it, and it helped get A LOT of wiggles out!!
