Gymbabies!!

I took Zoe to her first class of gymbabies today and we had a great time! It is a 45 minute class and there were about 6 other babies and parents there - the babies ranged in age from 8 - 16 months. The class is specifically designed for babies 6-18 months. Zoe's favourite piece of equipment is the trampoline - like her mommy!! She had a permanent smile when she was jumping on there with the instructor and myself - too cute. I forgot to bring my camera this time but I will bring it next week for sure and get some good action shots of her. Even though she is not able to crawl a lot of the activities do not involve that. There was an array of different stations set up that we took the babies through. One was a rope that the babies could hang onto, another was a bell attached to a ladder type thing that was attached to the wall, a big foam ring that you put the baby inside and you play peek a boo from the other side, a large slope you roll the baby down and a barrel type foam thing you put the baby on and then somersault them off of. Writing it down sounds a lot more scary then it is! She had a blast and I know she will enjoy it even more when she gets mobile.
Zoe is very good at standing next to things and holding on - she did that a lot at gymbabies today. She is also very good at staying on her hands and knees when you put her there. She rocks back and forth and you know she wants to go she just isn't quite sure how. She has become completely stable at sitting over the last few weeks and when she is on the kitchen floor she tries to drag herself along with her arms. She is able to pivot all over the place when she is on her stomach and while she is sitting. I have a feeling that she will not be stationary for very much longer and that means that we will have to baby proof - finally!
