First Time Skating!

With Yoyo's obsession with hockey, it was obvious we needed to get the kid on skates as soon as possible. Well, not surprisingly, it is difficult to find skates small enough. Craig finally found a little pair of Bauer's in a size 6...they are tiny and extremely cute :) So on Friday we went out to Millenium Place where they have a little indoor rink to take Yonas skating for the very first time. I figured he would either love it or hate it....he loved it! Which you can't really tell by the expression on his face but I think he was just concentrating so hard ;)
And while I get that all parents think their child is the greatest, Yoyo did really well for his first time! Near the end he was even trying to push off with his feet and he was able to use the pusher thingy (not sure what it's called) without Craig hanging onto it. People. the kid is not even 2 yet!!!
Looks like there really is a future little hockey player living under this roof!

Very cute!!! Don't they rent the skates that kids can attach to their shoes at MP? I have never taken D, but was thinking I should one day.
