Thank you Captain Underpants

Sven has recently discovered the joys of reading books to himself. He started with Diary of a Whimpy Kid, but he has really picked up velocity with the Captain Underpants series. I bought him an 8 book set, and he is reading about 1 book a day. He is already talking about bringing them on trips and reading them again.

Sven is learning to ski!


This year Sven said he wanted to learn to ski, so we signed him up for some lessons. Here he is at Summit West at Snoqualmie right before his first lesson.

The snow was pretty wet, as its been unusually warm, but I think that made it easier for him to get around on the skis. Not so great for skiing though. By the end of the lesson Sven could turn and stop. Next week, Sven might be ready for the lift.
