Isn't it March that comes in like a Lion and goes out like a Lamb? That could also describe Leif and skiing. He got super excited for skiing on Saturday, but once he hit on the hill he became a bit more reserved. At least until he realized he knew how to do it, and he saw his neighborhood friend racing down the slopes. Being the competitor he is, he wasn't about to be left in the dust. So, he enjoyed a couple hours of skiing on Saturday, which was followed but hot chocolate and watching the slush cup. Maybe it's something about first borns being the parent pleasers, because when I asked Leif if he would ever do that he said "no." I think Mikko will be the one racing down the slopes and skimming across the water - or falling in - that's really what the crowds love anyway.
While Mikko loves people watching, being outdoors and even the snacks, I am sure he is disappointed he cannot ski too. He does, however, like to play ball. I beleive he even says the word ball (bah) but, that is up for debate. When we returned from skiing, Mikko and Daddy played ball. We are all having such fun laughing and watching Mikko grow and discover new things.
So, even though March can be a "blah" month, we are finding that we have many enjoyable, fun moments with these boys. We are certainly looking forward to more fun times with them!
