1st skating lesson

Today was your first skating lesson. We actually enrolled you in the same skating lessons last year when you were 2, but it was a total fail. The skating program said you were too young at 2 to register, but daddy practically begged them so that's why they took you in last year. However, I know why they don't encourage 2-year olds to register. You threw a huge tantrum in the change room and we couldn't even get your skates on. We had to leave right away and got a credit for it. Both daddy and I were very weary about how you would take it this year, but we've been slowly prepping you for the big day. We made a whole shopping day of it when we bought your skates and helmet. You were so excited leading up to today because of it. We even talked to you about it for a few weeks telling you that you were going to go skating with daddy and you would be wearing your new helmet and skates. We said, "Aidan, no crying when you go skating, right?" You nodded and even pinkie swore to mommy promising that you would be a good boy. We were still pretty worried and even put on your skates outside of the change room just in case you threw a tantrum, but we had nothing to worry about. You were so calm and excited. Mommy and Kendall watched from outside the skating rink where it was warm, but it looked like you were having a blast. The only person that looked like they were struggling was daddy. I could see him struggling trying to keep you standing because at the beginning you were flailing your arms and falling over. I couldn't stop laughing watching him holding you.

There you are sitting with other toddlers your age. You are wearing the blue and red jacket.
Look how cute you guys look with your little helmets.

The first class was basically teaching the kids how to stand up. You struggled at the beginning,
but I think you were getting much better near the end. You were even holding your arms out
to balance yourself.

Here's a video mommy took of you in your skating lesson. Look how you're listening to the instructor.
