Not letting the rain get us down

When we woke up this morning, it was raining. Again. After a long, long, long weekend of being indoors, I decided we had to do something...anything!...to get out of this house. So, we went to open gym at Sport Bounce. Tons of fun. Until the end, of course, when I had to drag my kicking, screaming, crying, shoeless toddler out of the place, while all of the other mommies smirked that it wasn't their kid melting down at that second. We just won't focus on that part. (We're also not focusing on the lighting, colors, blurriness, etc. of any of the following photos. Okay, thanks.) Now, on with the fun...

They had a toddler room with some balls and other toys. Eleanor spent the first hour in here. We tried the whole bouncing thing, but she was completely uninterested (and scared). This other mom kept yelling at her kid that she 'had paid all that money' and that her kid 'better get out there and bounce and stop playing with the baby toys!' Yikes.

Love this one...my future running back (or whatever they call that guy who carries the football and makes the touchdowns.)

Maybe this is what she thought I meant when I kept saying, we were going to a new place to bounce.

Jumping? No thanks. I've got this awesome pink ball.

Mmmm. Ice cream. I wonder how many thousands of kids have licked this thing.

Those funny mirrors are very funny when you're one and a half.

Couldn't pass up the chance to ride a giant alligator-dragon-dinosaur thingy.

And finally, a little bouncing action. Once she got in there and saw how fun it was, she wanted to stay forever.
"Jum-t! Jum-t! Jum-t!"
