October 7, 2009

Looking for the moon on the way to preschool. "It's quite pale," Grace remarked. That girl is just adorable.

Curled up in the front seat in the drop off line.

Talking about how she could make plans to visit with her new friend Libby outside of school.

We did some running around after drop off (snack procurement, gas purchase, turtle rescue) and then squeezed in a quick trip to the playground before tumbling class.







Where there's Suki you know there's going to be a game afoot before long.



Sure enough, it was a riotous game of chase.

She had so much fun with these two boys.


Our would be escapee -- Kate is always trying to explore the non-play area of this baby gym.

Jumping!


Rolling down the incline. It was my understanding that somersaults were on the agenda but Suki had a different idea.


More somersaultish. Suki's actual somersaults would give a grown person some kind of spine injury, she just kicks her legs in the air and then it's a whalloping timber as her body smacks to the ground. There is no amount of convincing that works to turn her flop into a roll.

Rolling over this... what is this, a barrel?

More somersaulting!


All smiles.

Suki eyes these barbellish things.

Then she grasps them and gets ready to do a handstand.

The hands kind of left the equation though, in her excitement.

Two wee climbers.



An instructor helps Suki walk the plank.

Higher...

Even higher!

After she completed her tour of the ever ascending planks she got to make a mighty leap into the beanbags.

Kate liked to walk under this final plank like a bridge. She did a good job treading that plank herself as long as she felt she was being firmly supported along the way.

That girl in the mirror.

Bubbles!

Fun in the swings.

Finally, it was time for the ball pit.








Kate loved tossing this ball back and forth with one of the instructors.




Little miss mechanic. Kate loves checking out how things work.



Then we went to take a quick peek at the fountain.


We got Grace from preschool.

This was the gift she got for me from the playground today. I just love that she thinks of me and plans ahead like that.

Like most children across this great land, Grace is learning all about fire safety this week.



Putting on her seat belt.

Under her pile of animals.
