Since I work at the Pet Clinic almost every Saturday we thought it would be fun for Buzz to take Ella to gymnastics at the park district on Saturday mornings. Sounds fun, right? Not so much. I was able to attend the first class with them.
Now I always tell you what a great dad Buzz is but it seems he hasn't had much experience having to direct young Ella outside of the home. This is a class after all and sometimes you have to sit, sometimes you have to stand and sometimes you have to wait your turn. I've had my share of baby classes with Ella where she has cried and ran and tried to do what she wanted. But that's what class is for, to guide these young minds, right?
Buzz is a man who likes control and order. He doesn't like to be embarrassed and Ella had other ideas. She wasn't going to sit and she wasn't going to wait in line. Buzz actually started to sweat and made me take over. 
It's too bad because as you can see from these pictures, she had a great time. In Buzz's defense, the other children seemed to be much older and the Kindness twins took a gymnastics class that same day and ended up dropping out as well. Sorry, Ella. We tried ;) At least he takes you to Grandma's house every Saturday.

She looks like the happiest Little Girl in the world!
It took weeks for Ellie to follow the instructions and we didn't start until 2. Try again in a few months...but it is very hard on the parent. Lots of work and feeling embarrassed!
