Gymbo's Sweetheart Carnival

On Sunday evening we went to Gymbo's Sweetheart Carnival at Gymboree. There were games like bowling, pin the heart on Gymbo, the heart jump, the kiss toss and even a love boat 'ride'. All of the teachers were their and each game had little prizes that the kiddos got.

Braylon made a beeline to the bowling pins. No he did not want to throw the ball toward the pins, he wanted to Godzilla them. It took a lot of effort for us to explain to him that the ball is what is suppose to knock the pins over. 



 Next he went to the kiss toss aka training for the college years (beer pong). I mean right that is what it looks like with all of those red solo cups strategically placed. This game was too lost on Braylon. He quickly realized that there were Hersey kisses in the cups, so he would distract Miss Cinzia and run up and take as many chocolates as he could. I do have to say he is very resourceful when it comes to chocolate.



 Finally the last game was the heart jump. Lets be real here, Braylon ONLY wanted to play with this because he really likes Ms. Chris. That's it. They are buddies and this was her station.


Oh and how could I forget the Love Boat ride. He literally got in and got right out!

 The kids also got to decorate bags to take around to the games and put their collected prizes in. Braylon was in love with the craft area. First it was in the room at Gymboree that he is not allowed in. During Braylon's weekly class there is a pre-school class taking place in there. Braylon ALWAYS wants to go in there. So now that he was finally allowed to, he never wanted to leave. It also did not help that he loves art projects. I think it has to do with his school. They make one everyday! Only six weeks in and we already have a very nice collection of Braylon creations in the house!

And yes he was wearing daddy's beanie. Braylon had a great time and even got to pretend to be Gymbo.


As for Valentine's Day ours was very low key. I took sweets and veggies from Braylon's class party at school. He also took Car's valentine day cards for his little friends. I really wanted to go and help out for his party however Braylon is not able to do well with me there. I wanted him to enjoy his party so I stayed at work. Maybe by the time his Easter party rolls around I will be able to attend. After work and school we headed home for a quick dinner and then off to Gym in Jammies. Daddy was working so it was just me and Braylon. I think we had a nice low key little night. I am looking forward to when he is a little older and I can take him out for a special dessert on those kind of days.

We are now looking forward to a nice three day weekend! yay! hopefully the weather will improve and we can go to the zoo or do something fun outside!
