Skater-Boy

Here's Kleven's latest hobby, thanks to something he saw on someone else's blog! No names... but just know that it was the cause of an entire two days of my son begging like never before and a completely embarrassing tantrum at WalMart last week. In the past, Kleven would be found quite often standing on the surfboard Wallwoody in his room pretending to surf. Out of the blue one day last week he came running to me with the surfboard in his hands telling me , quite seriously, that he needed one with wheels.

He doesn't do a whole lot more than ride down the driveway sitting backwards, but we're for sure investing in a helmet and pads. He threw a hissy fit when we told him he couldn't ride it in the house, and it took four days to convince him the skateboard would be safe in the garage instead of in his bedroom. So, wish us luck... we've got a skater-boy on our hands!

I think that pads and a helmet are a necessity for that one....I can just picture it in my mind!! Good luck!

LOL He looks so cute on his skateboard! And sorry...about the fit in Walmart and constant asking for a skateboard. On the bright side, Stratton is excited to see another neighborhood (kind of) kid with a skateboard and wants you guys to come over and skate! We are outside most days from 4-6 or so skating so come over sometime! There is another little boy down the street in our ward too that Stratton also inspired who comes over all the time now to skateboard. Cute!
