Gold Medals
Michael Phelps, are you ready for the next generation of gold-medal winners? My grandson, Capt. Adorable, has started his own collection with this gold medal he won from an unanimous panel of awestruck judges got at the end of spring classes at Baby Gym. He probably is the most skilled and talented baby ever — ever! — to go 
through Baby Gym. That’s what I think, anyway. His skills at running under the parachute, playing with bubbles and refusing to give up the blue ball already are legendary. And these medals sure do come in handy — they also double as a snack. So convenient! But sometimes, you know, you just need to lay down on the mat and take a break from all the excitement and fan admiration.

So cute Cathy! You will never run out of things to write about with Capt Adorable around! He is just precious!
Thank you, Cheryl. I do have to agree with you!
Oh what fun. True mark of a champion is knowing when to take a break.
I love Capt. Adorable and the way in which you describe him.
