Pump-It-Up

Addy is in quite a predicament -- she can't decide where she wants to have her birthday party.  I know it isn't going to be at the house, but there are a few options she keeps jumping between.  One of the options is Pump It Up so we went to play on Monday.  I had hoped to find a friend for Addy to play around with, but schedules didn't work out so Addy, Ella and I went.  Addy calls this the "big" Pump It Up, it is more geared towards older kids.  So, there wasn't much for Ella but a fun time was still had by all. 

 Addy at the top of the slide at the end of the obstacle course.  I tried to do the obstacle course with Ella but it was pretty much impossible for me to make it up the last big climb, so we backtracked.  Addy could just zip on up no problem!

 This was a very standard view of Ella.  Wide open spaces, running too fast and down she goes.  Fortunately she did a great job catching herself and we didn't leave with carpet burn on her face.

 Ella went down the big slide with me once, but this turned out to be more her style.  It is just the wedge to climb up to get into the obstacle course, but it was perfect for a 1 year old to slide down.  And it didn't require mom to climb to the top of a tall slide, holding a heavy kid, and doing her best to not fall down on the kid climbing up behind her!
