Park and Crafts

6-8-13

This morning is usually when we bring Abby to the YMCA for gymnastics. Last Saturday we were to busy (that was the day the girls went to the circus with the grandparents and me and Bob went to the homeschooling expo) so needless to say we forgot to sign her up for gymnastics. Lots of people wait till the morning of the class so i called this morning and asked if they were doing it. I already had the girls ready to go and Abby in her leotard. The YMCA said that no one had signed up for the class so they were not having it and may not have it next week either. She took my number and said she would find out about next week and give me a call back. She called back soon after and said no Saturday morning class even for next week but i could sign up for the Monday morning class, so we did. BUT Abby was disappointed and so was Anabel because Anabel goes to the kids play around and she loves it. So to make up for it i got the bright idea of going to the park.

We went to the park next to the library and no one was there, it was so nice. The girls got to do a lot of things they don't normally get to do when it's just me and i have to hold Matthew and can't help them. Anabel learned how to do the monkey bars and this other thing which i have no clue what it is called and Abby was able to do the high ladder. They loved being able to conquer something new and i was so glad Daddy was there to be able to help them with it. I got some good videos of it:

We made a 'Monster Superhero' from a picture i found online and then Anabel came up with the idea to make a lady bug, so of course we had to try.

Then she wanted to continue and make something else so i let her play with the foam beads. She wanted to make a necklace for church tomorrow.
