Move On Over Bode Miller, Cuz' Avery is in town!

We were finally able to take Avery skiing!  He has natural talent at it!  He has been wanted to go ever since the first snow of the season (way back in the first of November), but because of lack of time and lack of snow, we haven't been able to make it up to the ski hill.  Well we finally took him up to a little ski resort (Wolf Mountain) and got a pass on the Magic Carpet.  He was a little nervous to get going too fast the first couple of runs down, but then he became completely fearless!  He knows how to do the "pizza" and even wanted to try to do it without the edgie wedgie (that ties his tips together).
 He can even do "snakes," or turns down the slope a little bit.  He wasn't the greatest at slowing down or stopping, but he could make it down the little run (not very steep) without help.  (It still made mom nervous though).  He never wanted to slow down (he said he just wanted to go faster).  Toward the end of the night, Avery kept asking to go on the "big hill."  I guess the little slope wasn't enough- hopefully next time we go.  We were such proud parents!  It was one of those sweet moments when your children learn something for the first time (we missed him walking his first steps so this makes up for it).
  Here are some sweet videos of Avery in his first day of skiing.

Avery didn't want to leave the ski hill!  Hopefully next time we go we can go on the "big hill."
