Bye-Bye Little Gym

We're sad to say that Nathan's last gym class was yesterday. It went out with a bang, though. They had an awards ceremony and the kids were presented with medals for all of their hard work and effort. Another highlight of the class yesterday was seeing Grandpa walk in right before class started. Nathan had a good time showing off for him. It was nice for me, too. He took all the pictures so I didn't have to.

Walking on the super high balance beam.

Nathan does forward rolls all the time at home, but the second you try to make him do one, he refuses. He turned this forward roll attempt into a wheelbarrow.

One of the cutest parts of the class...bubbles.
I'm going to miss this group of clean kids.
Nathan is soaking up the limelight. When Ms. Katie gave Nathan his medal, he proudly accepted it with a big grin on his face and gave himself a round of applause. He definitely deserved it!
He wore his medal for about thirty seconds before he decided to take it off. Now he thinks it's funny to make Mace and Hank wear it.
Here he is giving Ms. Katie five.
Then we did our usual lunch after gym class. This kid loves chicken sandwiches from Chick-fil-a.
Hopefully he'll eat so much Chick-fil-a that he'll get sick of it by the time we go home. I don't see that happening, though. He's eaten it consistently the entire time we've been here.
Hopefully Rapid City's gym class, Just Jymnastics, is as awesome as The Little Gym. We're going to give it a whirl when we get back there.

  1. Nathan takes what he learns in gym class home, hence his busted lip. He scares us because he is scared of nothing.
