February has been a month for skiing. Nathan has been taking Logan skiing on Fridays. Then, we typically ski as a family on Sundays. Logan has had a "break through" on skis. He is able to ski independently of mom and dad. He has a "edgy wedgey" on the tips of his skis. This rubber band like device allows him to put his skis in a pie shape while keeping his tips together. Logan is able to turn using exaggerated, airplane arms to shift his weight. Today he skied at Beaver Creek. From nearly top to bottom, Logan skied his last run using cat walks and short, easy blue runs.
Its fun watching Logan trying to imitate his dad skiing parallel turns. Logan is quite wobbly and has taken a few falls doing so. Most importantly, Logan is confident and has fun. He's been known to have a few tantrums because it was time to leave. A sure sign that its in fact time to go. He always falls asleep in the truck on the way home.
The first video is from early this year. The following video is recent. You will see Logan's "break through" on skis.
We're proud parents!
