Bubbles Anyone?

This weekend we tried to just have fun! The kids, by default, always have to run out and do errands with us. Cameron had his Gymnastics class on Saturday and afterwards, we stopped by Toys R Us. Gracie purchased some Leap Frog Tag Flash Cards for her Tag Reader and Cameron got his 3rd haircut. We walked around the store and looked at ALL the toys and headed home. Sunday, we walked over to the lake, fed the ducks and headed to the big playground. The kids played for over an hour. Gracie has a Dora the Explorer jeep Kenny purchased at an auction several years ago. She has never driven it. She was always afraid of it. As we were playing "tag" in the park, she said she was getting tired of chasing me around so I suggested we take her jeep out. She was a bit hesitant at first but then got the hang of it. Of course, we little Cameron at our knees screaming "mine, mine, mine". I thought, oh well, and let him take a turn. Oh my goodness is all that comes to mind. Those kids had the most fun driving the jeep around. Each time it was Gracie's turn, Cameron would throw himself down on his knees and cry. He had these big alligator tears running down his cheeks. As the battery started to wind down, I had to ask Gracie to drive the jeep back home as Cameron cried the entire walk home. To cheer them up, I decided to let them have a bubble bath. With Cameron's sensitive skin, he's never had one. I wish I had taken a picture of his face, bubbles, bubbles, bubbles, bubbles was all that came out of his mouth. As usual, as soon as I let go of the water, out came the alligator tears again!

Gymnastics Class

Every Thursday, Cameron watches Gracie take off her shoes and go into the gym for her gymnastics class. As soon as the door opens, he tries to make a run for it. He always ends up crying because he has to watch Big Sister from the window. Not this time! We took Cameron for his first class this past Saturday. It was more a trial run to see how he would do in the class as he's still under the age group (only by 2 months). We opened the door for him to go in and he just looked at me with this "are you serious" look. It took him a moment to take it all in and then, the fun began. He was not afraid of ANYTHING!
I don't think they understand stretching but he gave it a go.
He did not want to get off the trampoline so we did have a few tears......
Getting Stamps! He kept staring at Coach Ann as she was stamping his hands and feet. I would love to know what thoughts go their little heads.
Nice peaceful bath....
