We took Taylor bowling last weekend as a way to burn off some of her crazy energy.....thinking she would totally not get it, but would find it intriguing nonetheless. She ended up loving it!! Luckily there are bumpers to block the gutters and a slide-type thing for her to just push the ball down so there was little room for too much frustration on her end :) I also figured she'd be running up and down the lanes and I'd be chasing her the whole time, but she was really good about waiting her turn and her inner cheerleader came out full force. Every time anyone bowled (even if it was a gutter ball), she would run up, say "good bob!! five?" (good job! high-five?). She seemed to like being supportive and proud of people more than anything else........I'm also grateful there were only a few people there besides us :)
Oh, and yes, they had bowling shoes in her size-----freaking adorable!!!
You guys are SO cool--taking a 2-year old bowling! Well, not just ANY 2-year old. A sweet, engaging, and fun bowling partner! And shoes her size? That's amazing. "Good bob!! five?" What a gal--and I see grandpa came with. Sorry, just drank a small can of V-8 juice and there was a WORM in there. ACKKKKKKKKKKKK!!! They're so going to hear from me. Blech. alo, alo, Mollie (Oh, I hope I don't get sick.)
ReplyDeleteOh, one more thing--how heavy was her ball?
ReplyDeleteShe looks like she's having fun. Gutter bumpers are genius.
ReplyDeleteMollie, A worm in your V-8?!?!?!!? YUCK!! I'm never drinking V-8 again.
ReplyDeleteGutter bumpers AND a pushing ramp?! Amazing. I can't wait til we go bowling on our next visit. I'm sure Sasha will have no problem lifting a 16-pound ball, but keeping him in the bowling alley is another matter. TG is so well-mannered. And the pictures are too cute!
ReplyDeleteWisco, just give it a year. Carrie will be saying the same thing about her son!! "There go Sasha and xyz running out of the bowling alley!" There go Sasha and xyz running down to the river!" Oh what fun THEY'LL have!!
ReplyDeleteAwwwww, what a sweetheart Taylor is. Telling everyone "good bob" and high fiving them. She's so nice to everyone! I love her :)
