After treating Hailey & Riley well, identical, or close to it, for four years, it has been difficult for me to come to terms with the fact that one is much better at something than the other. We know they have different preferences, personality quirks, likes and dislikes. But that one is really just naturally better at something than the other is different. We've always tried to encourage them equally, but I think after ice skating trip #2, it may be time to foster different hobbies. Let's just say Hailey kicked some ice skating butt, while Riley preferred to climb up and down the bleachers with Grandpa Tom! Look at this kid go. (At the end she says "Mom, I'm done with that race." She was pretty tired out.)
Here's Riley after a fall. Don't worry, she's not hurt. She decided to stay there and make snow angels on the ice.

See, she's ok!

This has nothing to do with anything, but here is Riley eating an avocado out of the skin with a spoon. I just thought it was funny.

The next time you hear from me will be during or after our trip to Cancun! First airplane ride coming up on Wednesday; we can't wait!

That's a real "father of the year shot" with me standing over Riley. She was having a ball doing ice angels though.
