Andrew was watching Reading Rainbow the other day (one of the really really old retro ones) where LeVar goes bowling. I think we were only watching it for 30 seconds that morning. Later when Derick got home from work he said, "Dad, let's go play with those big heavy balls that have holes for your fingers and hit the white things down." Pretty good description I would say for only seeing it for a second! We went to Jack & Jill's, a place that has been around for a really long time. Andrew was running around looking at all the different colors of bowling balls to pick his favorite. He and Derick had a lot of fun while me and Ashley sat and watched. To tell you the truth, I think Andrew had more fun finding things to climb on!
Here is Derick with his MAD bowling skills. Andrew was pretty cute pushing his ball down the ramp and watching it slowly make its way down. We tried just having him push it down, first he wanted to kick it, the next time he pushed it and it about stopped. Derick had to go give it a little jump start to make it down to the pins.
Me and Ashley were having fun taking pictures. Actually, Ashley kept getting startled every time someone would throw their ball and it would whack the floor.
Here is a cute video of the kids. This is when Andrew tried to roll the ball by himself and it couldn't hardly make it down. Then there is Ashley making a funny face while she is talking.
