Well... we tried down hill skiing this weekend and it was not awful, but it was not great either. I could definitely see the possibilities of fun but, they were just a little out of reach for this trip. We went with a group of people from school. It is always hard going place with a group. To make a long story short, by the time we actually got to skiing Cian had been bundled up for almost three hours. Needless to say, he was already tired, hungry and needed a potty break before we even began. Once we did start to ski Cian was fine as long as I was right there in case he needed help. He would go up a flat belt like thingy and then he would ski down a small hill. I think he really would have had a blast if we had been able to start out earlier. It was fun to do a new thing though. I have a lot of anxiety when we go places and do things that we have never been before. So I am glad that this new experience is over and the next time we go it should be a lot less stressful. I think we will wait for another year so that Cian will be a little older and we will go on a day that is not 17 degrees and windy and we will go on our schedule! We had a great week though. Cian started his swim lessons back up. There are a lot more kids in his class this session and he has new teachers. They seem to be more playful which is good. We are already talking about Cian's birthday next month. He wants a Ben 10 party. So if you have any ideas...send them my way.
