" @ The Little Gym "

One of the coolest activities I have done with Keegan is taking him to the Little Gym. For those of you who do not know what this is, it is basically a structured class that teaches physical fitness, independence, exploration, and how to just have FUN! I loved it because it was a safe place that Keegan could go every week and just run around and explore. The teacher, Bill, was amazingly patient with the children and so positive. We would go every Wednesday morning and I think it was like Christmas morning for the two of us when we would wake up every Wednesday. Here are pictures of Keegan's last day of the class. The next semester we are going to take will start in the fall. We are taking the summer off to spend by the pool!















Pittsburgh Children's Museum

About a month ago, a girlfriend and I decided to take our kids to the Pittsburgh Children's Museum. It took about 2 hours to get there and luckily the kids took a short nap on the way there. Once we got there we had 3 floors of fun to explore. The most favorite floor for all the kids was the third floor water area. It was super cool. It had a bunch of water shooting out from the floor and you could then assemble pipes to make the water go anywhere you wanted. They also had a pool area where the kids could not get in, but build a boat and play with it in the water. And to dry off they had over 20 hand dryers on the wall. So cool...I wish I could have gotten a pair of Crocs on and gone to town...but I restrained myself and let Keegan have fun!
















Another floor was the Mister Rodgers Neighborhood. A ton of memorabilia from the show was in the play area, but I think only the adults knew who Mister Rodgers was!






Also on the first floor was a construction area. Keegan just loved to play on the bridge, while his friend Brody just ran back and forth on the bridge.




On the second floor, were toys specifically geared towards kids of Keegan's age. He enjoyed this area, just playing with toddler type toys.






After about 3 hours at the museum...Keegan let me know he was all tired out and ready to go back to Ohio!
