pushing along..

I had to take this picture.. You know how Paige likes to pick stuff up and push it along in her walker? Well yesterday I caught her pushing around "Night at the Roxbury" which for some reason struck me as hilarious! It might have been because I had a fit of the giggles at Gymboree. It all had to do with the parachute at the end of the class. It usually starts with the babies sitting in the middle of the parachute as the adults walk in a circle so the babies get a little ride. Then, we take them off, pick the parachute up, sit underneath it and put the edge under our bums so that we are all under a dome. Then, we leave the babies on the mat while we raise the parachute up and down over them. Finally, we let go of the parachute as the instructor whips it off in one motion. So... I'm not sure if there were new people there or what, but everything went wrong. First, as we were taking the babies off the chute to go underneath it, everyone was off except katharine as the parachute was being lifted. We had visions of her being trapped on top of the dome. Then, there was a lot of comotion trying to get the parachute under our bums, as some people were over eager and had already sat down before other people were close to being ready. But the worst part was when she whipped the chute off at the end, i think a few people let go a bit late and it sort of enveloped me and there was parachute everywhere and my hair ended up sticking up all over the place. Could not stop laughing.
I have noticed that Paige likes to copy other babies. Clara was putting this antannae in her mouth so Paige had to come over and do the same thing even though she has never done this before.
