One of the things we will miss the most when we move is having playgrounds in all directions. This one, down the street from us, has provided hours of fun for our family recently. It has a playground full of sand, a structure, swings, etc, a basketball court, and a baseball field. Last week, we took the opportunity to finally take Finley's birthday bike (from Aunt Caitlin) out on the road (as opposed to our basement). A basketball court seemed like the perfect place for a test ride and thankfully, Finley remembered to bring his helmet (seriously, he asked Dan go back into the basement to get it just before we left the house!). Safety first!
Dan got him moving and then let him go, but it's hard to know if Finley's got enough power in his legs to keep the momentum going while he pedals.
Good effort :)
After bike riding, Finley got out his bat, ball, and glove from the canvas bag of sports equipment that we never leave home without. This video is taken from the catcher's perspective, but it is nonetheless awesome!
Finley adores playing baseball these days and never seems discouraged--which is impressive since for every hit he gets, he probably swings and misses a half dozen times at least. I love his determination and love of the game!
