Bye, Bye Scooters!

Wednesday was our last day of Scooters :(  It has been so fun watching Emma grow and develop for the past ten weeks in this class.  She is really starting to get the routine down.  It seems like she knows all the songs now - her face lights up with each of them, especially any that include a lap bounce!  Just saying the words Tic Toc gets a giggle from the girl.  She knows carpet time is story time.  During the last class her friend Gabriella sat right in front of her so she couldn't see the book.  It was pretty funny watching Emma try to peer around Gabriella because she didn't want to miss a page! We met some really good friends in this class.  Here are some pics from the past few weeks worth of classes. 

Rubber ducks are essential to chew on while we sing about ducks!

Three little ducks went out one day, over the hills and far away...

Sensory development day- how many types of sensory balls you grab? Also, try your hand at sticky tape on the foam tile!

Gabriella, are you done with the yellow ball?

 Story time! 

Bubbles!

Yay! We are clapping about something!

More bubbles!

During our trip to the West Coast we missed a class.  Fortunately we are able to do makeups and try any class we want.  We REALLY wanted to try the music class but our schedule wouldn't allow that.  So this week we went to a Movers and Groovers class.  It is the next developmental class in the series.  All the babies were absolutely moving and grooving and already had or were close to celebrating their first birthday!  Emma and I were shocked to find out that the activity for the day was hand painting!!! 

This is the face I get from Emma when it is more than an hour past her nap time!  She may not be all smiles but she was a good sport and didn't want to miss out on the fun!

The finished products.  Emma's painting is on the far left... I am a pretty proud mama!  Of course Emma's first artwork is hanging on our fridge!

Story time with the big kids.

We are looking forward to starting Movers and Groovers in January.  Eight out of the ten moms in our Scooters class signed up for it plus one of our old friends from Next Steps.  Emma can hardly wait to get her move and groove back on!
