Camden has skillz

For Christmas Camden got a scooter...this scooter.


Aric and I debated over it because I wanted him to have a three wheeler, an expensive three wheeler (a mini kix). My sister has two of them and Camden loves riding them. Aric convinced me that the cheaper radio flyer would be just fine. So the past five months C has been riding it around the house since we live in the most annoying climate ever.

Well last week the sun came out to tease us for a few days and C refused to ride his scooter, he kept wanting to ride one of the girl's. So after fighting with my two year old for about ten minutes I decided to push the handle bars down and let him try and ride it.


I was confident that he was going to crash.



That little guy proved me wrong! He got on it and flew down the street. He has been cruising on a two wheeler ever since and now he even does tricks!


The old lady that lives by us just watches him in amazement. Maya and Eden both couldn't ride a two wheeler scooter until they were at least four and even then they were wobbly.




So now we have a very nice, barely used three wheeler scooter collecting dust in the garage. Good thing Aric won that debate!

I was so impressed when he came crusin down the hill to play group the other day! I have a feeling he's going to be riding a bike in no time. Carter has been asking to play with him a lot lately since I told him that Camden wanted to have a play date with him:) We need to get those two dare devils together soon!

Holy Moly! You can just look at the pictures and see how skilled he is on that baby!!!!! He has great balance and agility for his age.

For his next birthday you should get him the kind that makes sparks. He would look like a little rocket ☺.
