Pretty Soon
Reagan had a tough day because of some early trouble with Sydney. But after we got that behind us, I tried to focus on just letting her have fun on the skis today. This involved a lot of straight downhill fast! That's her thing. She is getting the hang of it. I really hope to have her on her own this season. But I kind of enjoy getting to spend the time with her as well.
Snack time! Reagan pounded a Hershey bar and an apple juice then made the final run of the day.
She told me that when she is 7, she will ride the lift with Sydney and not need me. OK, I guess. I still have Kayla to train.

Skate Date
We took a family skate night at the Leadville ice rink. Lots of craziness. Such a fun time.

Back On Skis
Reagan, Sydney and I went skiing at Ski Cooper today. Its such a great family spot. Reagan had our kid's skis so we had to wait in line forever to get Syd's rentals. I try my best to minimize time from car to first run because it just seems to drain the enthusiasm. Reagan's was going quick. She really wasn't that keen on skiing this season. She always takes a big amount of coaxing to do anything. Then she usually loves it and cries when its time to stop.
This season, I have Reagan wearing a backpack with two tow ropes coming off of it. I hold these and ski 6 feet behind her. This keeps her from flying downhill. I can also turn her right or left to help guide her as she learns the side to side action. It went pretty well.
Unfortunately, I ran over her once as she fell in front of me and I couldn't react fast enough. Now, I ski slightly to one side.
I literally had my hands full all day with Sydney and Reagan and never managed to get an action shot of Reagan. My bad. But she wouldn't let me leave her long enough to get it.

Tooth Two
After the long agony of tooth number 1 taking forever to come out, this one just popped out at school. Reagan came home with it in a baggie.
