My little athlete!

Everyone always thinks their kids are the best at everything but in my case its true. :) Alex is a super athlete, and I gotta say I think he gets it from me. Not to toot my own horn but back in the day I was pretty good at sports.
Anyways he was hitting a pitch by age 2 as well as hitting a golf ball by age 2. For anyone who has ever played golf it is a hard sport, not to mention frustrating. He has also been very good at basketball for as long as I can remember. Then came the bike riding. We bought him a bike with training wheels and not even a month later the training wheels were off.
This summer we conquered swimming in just 6 trips to the pool and now we are onto rock climbing. The first time he tried he was a little scared and did not go very far up and I thought maybe we found something he might take time to learn. WRONG!!!! Today we tried again.The first time we went half way up and the second time he made it almost to the top. He had a couple more steps and would have been there. So for now I will say rock climbing in also in the win category!His uncle Matt would be so proud! Maybe next winter we will conquer skiing in Jackson Hole! :)
