Well today Colby and I had Gymrompers. Wednesdays are always fun I think we both look forward to them! It gets us out of the house and I get to visit with other moms and Colby gets to play in a huge gym with all toys! Today there were 7 kids. This was a big group! It was nice to have that many! Colby did really well I thought he might get overwhelmed and frightened with all the kids. But he did great! He was right there in the middle of them. Ofcourse he doesn't "play" with other kids yet and in fact sometimes he likes to get off by himself but least he is getting exposed to what it is like to be around other children! He is also the youngest in the class but he hangs in there pretty good. He got upset in the middle when they picked up the instruments and the animals. He always has a tough time "letting go" of the toys but today he just fell to pieces. I am not sure if it was more of a toddler mood and being overwhelmed and tired or what. I basically tried to get him to move on and even ignore him a little bit so he would act like a big boy and continue playing. After about 5 minutes he got it out of his system! But really he is getting so big! He walks so well now and just talks all the time. I really feel like he is pretty advanced with his talking b/c he says about 15 or more words. And he always uses them correctly! It sure is different though to see him as a toddler and not a baby anymore. Everyday he gets more independent then the day before! Well I posted some pics from this time last year and then from this week! Crazy how much they change in a year!
