Zoey's Little Gym Graduation

It has been a very long time since I've had the time to sit down at our home computer and update the blog. Zoey and Izzy have grown a lot since the last post.

When Zoey first started the birds class at the Little Gym, she wasn't even crawling yet. At her last birds class, she was running, climbing and jumping. So many milestones since she started.

Zoey has absolutely no fear of anything in class or outside of class. She's willing to try and do whatever. She's amazingly flexible and super, super sweet. Kailey our nanny tells us that Zoey always goes around to the other moms in class and gives them hugs or sits in their laps. She's such a sweet and social girl.

This semester she's enrolled in two classes a week because she loves it SOOO much! Just wish I wasn't working so I could take her. My little baby is growing up!

Happy Birthday Isabel!

My little supermodel

Izzy has been seriously GAP-ified... Instead of the normal pink and purple cutesie clothes I typically buy her, I thought I would change it up. I went for the Jack Purcell Converse, skinny jeans and black tops. We made her put on a fashion show with all her new clothes but we only got to 1 outfit... more to come!

My diva in training.

Firestation Tour

We had a wonderful time a couple weekends ago at a local fire station in San Jose. This was one of our meet up group events and it was totally fun. All the kids had a blast playing with the fire truck and the fire hose.

Me and the girls on the back of the fire truck. Zoey is totally trying to squirm out of my arms.

The firemen took the hose from their truck and let the kids take turns turning it on and off. Apparently they carry 500 gallons of water on the truck itself and the rest they can get from fire hydrants. I think the parents had more fun talking to the firemen about what they do. The kids just wanted to get drenched...thank goodness that didn't happen.

Izzy and her fireman hat. The firemen kept making comments about her being a Steelers fan which I thought was hilarious. I will try and keep her away as princess stuff as much as possible!

Isabel's Little Gym Graduation

Izzy graduated from her class today and showed all of us her skills. She absolutely LOVES Little Gym and her teacher. There has never been one class where she has told afterwards that, "she had so much fun!".

Walking on the balance beam, she still needs mommy's help.

Getting her medal and doing a cheer!

Zoey's Litte Gym Graduation

I was a little hesitant on enrolling Zoey into the Bugs class at the Little Gym and found out she was the youngest in her class however Zoey doesn't get the amount of socialization that Isabel did at her age. We had Isabel at daycare when she was 10 months old so Zoey, almost two has spend the last 11.5 months at home. Week by week, she started to get better and I think it helped her learn to crawl.

My cutie! Peeping through the double bars...

Ball time!

Zoey's nanny Katie usually takes her every Friday so it was nice to see that Zoey was beginning to like the class. I enrolled her for summer to see if it will help her learn to walk. I love Little Gym and both girls seem to do too!

Lupus 5K Walk/Run

Our dear friend Rhoda set up an event for our group to join the Lupus Foundation 5k Run/Walk. It was a really fun and supportive event for everyone. I had no idea what the disease was until this race and I'm glad that we were able to support a friend.

Here is Izzy and her friends getting ready to do the walk!

The girls taking a snack break after the walk...

The walk was at 9am and it was so nice out that by 10am I was STARVING! I had totally forgot to eat breakfast so right after the race, we went to Sonoma Chicken Coop for breakfast. YUM!
