A Sporting Adventure

Today we took the boys to the local Sporting Goods store to try out some cool gear. We thought we would have to teach them how to use the equipment, but they quickly demonstrated that they were already recreational geniuses.

First stop: footwear. Noah is excited about all the options available, and already knows the importance of good shoes in getting you where you want to go (when you're tired of being carried everywhere, that is) !

Next stop: safety equipment. Noah demonstrates the importance of wearing a helmet while riding in a bicycle trailer or pedaling on your own. In fact, the helmet was almost the right size! I knew the kid had a big brain to go with those powerful lungs...

Now that the basics of head and footwear were covered, Noah and Oliver set their sights on some wheels. Watch those little legs legs go!

Next, Noah and Oliver set their sights on a big orange sled. Oliver is driving, and Noah is hanging on tight!

Finally, Oliver set off to charm the manager, who also had twin boys, while Noah checked out the watersports area. Remembering how to kayak from being in mommy's tummy, Noah found himself a sturdy inflatable model and hopped right in:

A great time was had by all, and the boys are looking forward to warmer weather and their trip to San Diego this summer, so they can show off their skills in front of all those baby girls on the beach!
