We had a fun first today! My friend Stephanie (I know her through EastPointe Church and MOPS) decided to start a Toddler Gym program for us mommies! She has a physical education major and taught for several years and is quite the expert! She put together a wonderful morning of fun activities. There were balls of all shapes and sizes, slides, tunnels, trampoline, balance beam, noodles, bowling pins, basketball hoop, and toys to ride! She brought a blanket for McKenna and her daughter Kendall to sit on and play with some toys too! Kendall is one month younger than McK and they enjoyed playing together...working on their FINE motorskills :o) My mom is here from Oklahoma, so she got to join in on the excitement! After about 45 minutes of playing, we gathered around in a circle and sang songs and did motions. It will be SO FUN when McK is able to play around WITH the big kids, but it was equally as fun for her to watch the others play! What a fun morning activity to have...a BIG THANK YOU to Stephanie for putting this all together! Can't wait for next month!

Looks like it was a lot of fun, I'm going to try and make it next month if I can :-) I thought about it this morning..but felt like I might go into labor if I bent the wrong way, which maybe means I SHOULD have gone :-)
Great pics- looks like you all had fun! Great idea- it's a good thing going. So glad your mom is here to have all kinds of fun with you- I know you love it!!
I'm so glad that you enjoyed Toddler Gym. I hope we can continue to grow the program and nurture relationships between mommies and the munchkins. Next month I should have my parachute! Just think, before long, McK and Kendall will be crawling through the tunnels with the "big" kids!
