Fall (???) Fun

So, the calendar says it Fall.....But the weather states otherwise.  It's been HOT here the last week or so.  Brian has been working a ton and got a rare Saturday off this past weekend.  So, we both got to go to Sara's soccer game in the morning.

After lunch, we headed over to We Rock the Spectrum Sensory Gym.  It just opened last weekend in Berkeley.  I was excited to check it out since Sara has been demanding more and more sensory input lately.  We instantly loved the place.  The owners are parents with a 4-year old boy on the Spectrum.  It was like they were speaking our language!  They showed us around and talked about their plans for the gym while we exchanged information about potty training, therapies and school districts.  I'm excited to watch this place grow.  They are hoping to offer classes soon!

Our pictures don't do it justice.  There were theme rooms for dress-up, lego, trains, library/quiet spaces, balls and hoops, trampoline and climbing, and then all sorts of swings and a zipline.  Sara didn't like the zipline, but loved using the carpeted slide.  Everyone was so kind and patient as Sara experimented sliding on carpet on her belly, back, head first, feet first....you name it she tried it!

We can't wait to go back.

Her favorite swing....she kept saying "more swing!"
