One of These Kids is Doing Their Own Thing

One of our favorite things about Lamorinda is that everything seems to cater to young families, even the gyms! Our new gym not only provides awesome childcare while we work out -- the most powerful incentive I've ever had to do some cardio! -- but classes for kids are also included in the membership.

For the fall session, white belt Tae Kwon Do and Beginning Dance happened to be scheduled at the same time, in studios right next door to each other. In other words, the stars aligned perfectly in my mommy world, and I'm able to usher Joey and Clara into their respective activities, take a seat in an armchair where I can see both classes, and nurse Molly for a peaceful half hour.

Here's Clara, going against the grain in a class that is exploding in pink (thanks Aunt Meredith, for helping out this novice mom and supplying our little dance student with everything she needed for class!). Thanks to her birthday party, Clara now has an assortment of tutus in every color imaginable!

Meanwhile, Joey was the lone student in his class who wasn't properly outfitted for Tae Kwon Do... next week we'll be more on the ball!
