Yesterday was a busy day for us. Mike was home sick with the flu, and don't you know it's darn near impossible to keep a toddler away from his idol? And yes, Daddy is his idol. Thankfully, the kids seem to be doing ok, not showing any signs of illness so let's hope it stays that way. Also, yesterday was Carter's first gymnastics class. It worked out well that Mike was home because he watched Avery while we went to class. It was so. much. fun. So. much. fun. To say that he had a blast was an understatement. The class started with warm up and stretching, then they worked on locomotor skills such as: rolling like a caterpillar, running like a cheetah, crawling like a dog and hopping like a bunny. The class ended with practicing on gym equipment. They had a balance beam for the kids to walk on, a bar for them to hang from, a tunnel to crawl through, a wedge shaped mat to roll down and a tall mat to jump off of. Carter's favorite activity was walking over the beam. He really suprised me by doing fantastic on the beam. He walked forward and sideways the whole length of the beam only holding my hand. I'll have to take some pictures when Mike comes to watch.
And in Ava news, she tried apples yesterday. Mom where are my bananas? I really like bananas.

Mom, this isn't bananas! I want bananas! Apples stink! I'm going to cry and cringe and make yucky faces and pretend to gag and spit them out until you give me bananas!
