Gymboree

I have been taking Grady to Play and Learn classes at Gymboree since I got out of school for the summer.  We go on Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday for the class.  He loves it!  It's all indoors, but there is so much equipment for him to play with and we get to stay out of the heat.  I wasn't really sure what to expect, but the classes are really neat... we sing songs, play games, and at the end, it's Grady's favorite part- getting his "Gymbo" tattoo.  It's just a stamp, but all day long he points at his foot and says "Bobo!" 

Here are some pictures of him at Open Gym.  They have Open Gym 4 times a week and it is when the gym is open to all members, but there are no classes taught.  There were just a few other kids there yesterday, so he had practically the whole gym to himself...

(He was having fun yesterday, but he was sleepy, so he is not smiling in any of the pictures!  He looks a little out of it!)

Mikey came with us to class today and afterwards we were walking around the mall when Grady saw those little rides that all malls have.  I hate these things.  I used to always see kids on them and think, I'm never letting my kid ride on those dirty things.  Well, when your kid REALLY wants to ride on those things, it's hard to say no! 

Luckily, as soon as we put the 75 cents in and the machine started rocking, he wanted OUT!
