What a busy week and we still have one more day!

Monday: We headed to the gymnastics academy for open gym! Avery loves this place. She loves hanging from the bars, walking on the balance beam and bouncing on the tramp! We met a little friend there too, we will call her "E". She is a sweet almost 3 year old who was awesome enough to share a terrific stash of size 2T jeans that will seriously fit Avery for at least a year and more likely through next winter. Two pairs are even fleece lined for wintertime!

Tuesday: Turf for Tots is actually every week day from 9:30 AM to 1:00 PM, but the mom's I have met in the area have made Tuesdays the regular day we go and try to meet up. It is an awesome indoor soccer field and they have tons of toys for the toddlers to play with! Avery had a ball!

Wednesday: The weather was terrific so we went for a walk on The Airport Dike Trail. It runs behind the airport and onto the flats. We got to see some giant heavy equipment in action and a bunch of planes land and take off. Avery slipped in the mud and we had to turn back, but we are glad we finally got out to this trail.

Thursday: We went over to Douglas Island and had a play date @ Sandy Beach. We played at the park, in the sand and even let the kids wander the trails a bit. All 3 of the kids seemed to enjoy the driftwood and quarreled over sticks.

Today: We went to the pool! The Dimond (this is spelled correctly) Park Aquatic Center just opened in June and it is an awesome facility. They have a "Lunch Bunch" for an hour every week day. I wasn't sure how Avery was going to do, but she had a FABULOUS time! She even went under at one point (she tripped) and she didn't even react. She even did some swimming in the deeper water moving both her arms and kicking her legs. I am so proud!

Tomorrow: We have birthday party for a little guy we have hung out with a few times, we will call him "H". Pizza and cupcakes is on the menu and depending on the weather we could be headed to our favorite park or Bullwinkles Pizza...I guess we will know in the morning.

Next week we will defiantly head back to the Turf for Tots, maybe the gym and we get to see Kooka and Grandpa next Friday! They will be here Friday through Monday and I am hoping Sam and I can catch a date or two while they are staying! Next weekend will be a fun packed birthday weekend for our big 2 year old!
