Well, my boy Alex is finally a full-fledged Canadian!!!
He is 3 and a half and can stand and walk on skates!!! Ya, I'm a proud dad.
We took him skating on the weekend with Bec's parents and sister, and Alex had a ball. Thanks to my lovely wife and her photo taking and movie making abilities, I dropped 3 little videos for you to watch... And if you watch closely, you'll even see me slip a little bit.. (working on this...)
Alex didn't take too long to be able to stand up on his own either, so I was pretty happy about that. Not so happy about the sore back I got by the end of the 2 hours. He like going around the rink fast, which meant that I had to hold him while I was hunched over... Watch the video to see what I mean. But he absolutely loved it.
I would like to try to take him more often so he could become a skating champion of the world, but it cost us $30 for me and him (including skate hire). Imagine that, 2 hours of skating for one adult and one child = $30. Well, that's one dream that won't get lived out.
I've probably posted too much for today, so bye bye my adoring fans!!!
