Dare Devil

We just went on our annual week long family vacation to Sunriver, Oregon. What really stood out to me on this trip is how independent Jack is and how little fear he has. Jack sacred me every time he got on to his tricycle! He loved riding the trike to the highest point on the street, pedaling as fast as he could, then coasting down the street with is legs spread eagle. I could not watch, and didn't really approve, but Jack LOVED rocketing down the hill on the bike. Marty was in charge of the biking sessions. There were no falls- so I guess it went well. He also has very little fear of the water. At the beginning of the summer I started swim lessons with Jack. At that time he was very nervous in the water, and wanted to get out of the pool. By his third week in the class he began to really enjoy the water. By the time we got to Sunriver all of Jack's fear of the water was gone. Now mommy is the fearful one! Jack loved jumping into the kiddie pool, splashing in the water, swimming with his ring, and even enjoyed 2 trips down the big water slide (on Daddy's lap).
