Fun at Debbie Howard's

Christopher and I returned to Debbie Howard's Gym this morning for some crazy, fun open play. If this gym was open all day, Chris would probably stay and play the whole time. He loves it! And it is always good for a little boy to burn off some energy. Olivia met us there today and as you can see from the picture above, these two best friends had a blast together! When we left and I asked Chris what his favorite part of the gym was, he said the balance beam. Here he is doing it all by himself:
He was even brave enough to try the high balance beam while holding my hand. CJ did spend a lot of time running and jumping into the foam pit and I certainly got a nice upper body workout lifting him out of the pit! We tried a couple forward rolls, hung from the rings and, in the picture below, climbed over the horse and rolled down the slanted mat.
And just in case there was any excess energy after all this playing, we got it out by having Chris jump up and down on the big mat (see video!):


You could tell by the end of our play time that this little man was tired! We sat outside and had a nice lunch date at Noodles and Company and by the time we got home, Chris actually asked me to go to sleep. It was a good workout for the buds!
