So Desmond is in Gymboree we go once or twice a week, we have a lot of make sessions that lets us get that second session in, he has been going since he was 4 months old or so and in level 1, we moved to level 2 at 5 months and level 3 at 8 months (normally it is level 1: newborn to 6 months, level 2: 6 to 10 months, level 3: 10 to 16 months) anyways we are moving up to level 4 at 14 months. The class he is in is really crowded and he is past the level they are at, and we have had a bunch of new babies in the class so the class is now skewed towards the younger end of the age range, which changes the dynamics a lot, since he is no where near the lower end of the spectrum in the class.

For instance today’s activities focused on walking. Desmond has been walking well for the past 4 months, so it was kind of pointless. Plus he really isn’t fond of having between 12 and 15 other kids in the class, we prefer about 8 in the class. I talked to his teacher today and she agreed that he is ready, so tomorrow we’re going to try out the level 4 Gymboree class and see if what we think, we’ll probably move up, though I am not sure if we’re going to do the Friday 10:30 class or the Tuesday 10:30 class, I know we aren’t going to the 9:30 classes since he is barely awake then, just need to decide if Tuesday or Friday works better for us overall.

So we are moving up in the world and in Gymboree, it should be fun.
