Skating - Takes 1 & 2

Take 1
In theory, these "skates" sounded just perfect for Henry (and the reviews on Amazon agreed, as well), so I ordered them for Christmas.  I couldn't find any real skates that were small enough for him, so I thought we'd try them.  

Phil shoveled off a mini-rink for us down on the lake.  The ice is as smooth as be, it's wonderful.  We tried them, the wild man couldn't keep them on, therefore I'll be sending them back this week.

 Besides, he was having waaaaay more fun running around on the lake anyways.  
Who made these tracks?

And he's off.....going to check out the hockey game going on over there.  Man, there are some hard-core rinks going on around here!

Take 2
We hit up Play it Again Sports today to find a pair of used hockey skates and they recommended these 'Lil Bauers instead, for the toddlers.  They're still pretty big and they'll definitely fit next year too, so that's good.  

 He liked it for the first few seconds, then hated it, then liked it, then hated it (you get the picture), then it got just downright cold and we headed in.  Unfortunately we didn't have a fire pit going, to warm us up, like the guys down the street!
