Might As Well Jump!

So the kids and I are sitting at the breakfast table, finishing up our meal in preparation to get in the car and drive to the YMCA when the phone rings. Eli's first swim lesson was canceled due to a chemical imbalance in the pool; time to figure out some new plans for the morning! I quickly called a few friends and one was able to meet us at Kangazoom, Eli's favorite, but rarely visited jump castle haven. Logan and Eli jumped for about an hour in every area available to them, and they finished up their visit in the pre-walker zone, where Maddux hung out. Speaking of her, Maddie got to go down the BIG slide a few times since Eli did not feel like going alone. I carried her up to the top and the three of us slid down together. What a strange bird: the first time Eli went to Kangazoom, not only did he climb up to the top by himself, but he slid down several times solo. Now he loves the slide, but refuses to go alone.

We did have an incident after lunch where Eli was (purposely) squishing Maddux with the plastic walker, but for the most part, he loves including her. He asked me several times to let Max 'jump' with him in the castles at Kangazoom. Two steps forward, one step back...

Oh seeing Logan brings back memories! Ryan misses him. Glad you got to get out!

Ryan was like that with Pace. It is definitely two or maybe three forward and one back! :)
