My-Gym Finally Started

The My-Gym near us finally opened. We went to the Grand Opening this weekend to check it out and we were pretty impressed. The staff there are all really nice and it looks like it will be a good fit for Dougie. Unfortunately, we were the only people who signed up for our class so we were moved into the next class up (for 7m-13m) which runs on Tuesdays instead of Wednesdays.

So, our first class was today. It was okay but not quite as wonderful as I had thought it would be. Most of that was likely related to the fact that Dougie was just getting tired when class started (he napped too early yesterday morning). Also, while some of the activities were right up his alley, some where a bit too much for him. They indicated that there would be some special activities for Dougie since he was the youngest one in the class and we had to switch classes but there was only one "special" activity. A few of the regular things were just not meant for someone his age (i.e. they were geared toward a child that can sit unassisted).

We've decided that we're going to go back. Dougie isn't too far from being physically ready for the class and I think if we can get a better nap in him, he'll be a lot more likely to enjoy it. I will talk to them next week if they don't have enough activities that Dougie can participate in.
