Sam's First Time Ice Skating

Well, we finally did it! We got Sam on the ice for the first time. Needless to say he was very excited about it! Seth finally had a good hockey game time yesterday so we were able to enjoy watching him play and then hang out a little longer to take Sam skating.


It was so cute to see Sam get so excited about skating on his "Hockey Skates" like dad does.

I obviously don't have the skills of how to really tighten hockey skates yet...

because Grandpa had to fit them. It was fun to have Grandpa M there to share in the fun.

James got into it too. We weren't quite ready to have him out there too, although he wanted to be. He did get to have some fun in the stroller though and enjoyed the speed.


I couldn't decide what little video to upload, so here they all are. A progression of his ability to glide on his skates.
At first he couldn't even stand up.

Then he just wanted to run.

Then he got the idea of how to glide.

And that turned into getting a little lazy and loving having Dad do all the work!

This was definitely a fun night, but our backs were definitely tired at the end of this whole experience.
