aren’t you glad I didn’t say strawberry?

about a month ago we started taking the kids back to classes at "my gym" – the same chain of gyms we went to in boston.  pickle is one of the biggest kid in her class, since the age range is 7-22 months.  she'll move up in a couple of months and we'll be able to sleep an extra hour on saturday mornings.  but she's having a blast.  she couldn't even walk at her last class in boston (she took her first steps the next day!) so she loves zipping around the gym, climbing on everything, and jumping.  oh she loves the jumping.

 

quentin already moved up to the next level – the first parent-less level.  we obviously stay right there in the lobby like 10 feet away from him, but he participates in the entire class by himself.  the first week he was a little confused (as were we, because we didn't even realize he had moved up!)  but he has done super awesome with it (thank you daycare.)  at the beginning of class, the teachers ask the kids their names and then a fun question each week.  here are the past few weeks in review:

 

week 1

question:         what's your favorite snack?

quentin:           (mommy and daddy cringing in the lobby awaiting his answer) strawberries

 

phew.  he didn't say donuts or an entire bag of sour gummy worms.  or a donut topped with an entire bag of sour gummy worms.

 

week 2

question:         what is your favorite flavor of ice cream?

quentin:           cupcake.

 

um.  ok.  but then when the girl next to him said "strawberry" he changed his answer to "strawberry."

 

week 3

question:         what is your favorite restaurant?

quentin:           strawberries

 

at least he's consistent?

 

week 4

question:         what is your favorite day of the week?

quentin:           saturday

 

aren't you glad he didn't say strawberry?  i am!
