Staying in shape and dating go hand in hand. So it's no surprise that just days after Thing 1 joined the gym, she got her first boyfriend. Alpha Female had been counting down the days until Thing 2 would turn six weeks old, because this would mean that she was old enough to use the daycare at the gym, and Alpha Female could exercise and try to loose her Jelly Belly. So as soon as Thing 2 was old enough, the Alphas and the Things joined the gym. Alpha Female has been taking the Things to the gym all week. Thing 1 seems to love the experience. One day she played tea party with the teacher. One day she wandered around and talked to other toddlers. One day she played on the slide. And one day she met her boyfriend. The teachers told Alpha Female that they hit it off right away. It seems that they both spoke the same language (one that neither I nor the Alphas understand) and found each other quite hysterical. They would talk to each other and then laugh and laugh. Thing 1 liked him so much that she decided she needed to start chasing him around and hugging him. It sounds like his disposition is like mine and he could have done with less hugging. But, with him and with me, Thing 1 disregards our wishes and hugs away. When Alpha Female came in to pick up the Things, she saw Thing 1 tackle her boyfriend to the ground with a hug. Thing 1 then cried and reached for him when Alpha Female told her it was time to go. Maybe they'll have a second date next week. Thing 2 also likes going to the gym. She thinks it's another good place to nap. I ask you, is there ever a bad place to nap?
