Skating with Elmo

Justin is so adventurous and laid back that I thought he would enjoy roller skating but boy was I wrong.  He was really into the lights and music when we first got to the roller rink but was fussy from the moment I put the skates on him until we left the roller rink.  He'd take a few steps in the skates and then throw a tantrum and fall out on the floor.  We barely made it out onto the rink and the one time we did we couldn't even make it 1/4 of the way before Justin had had enough.  Aiden on the other hand absolutely loved it and kept dragging his mom out on the floor so Justin and I spent most of the time watching Carlene and Aiden skate.  

Surprisingly both boys were scared when Elmo came out.  Justin wanted nothing to do with Elmo and wouldn't even go out on the floor with him.  Aiden was fine on his own terms and would slowly inch closer to Elmo, but as soon as Elmo walked his way he started backing up.

Our attempt at skating on the rink.


 
After going out on the rink this was the only way I could get Justin to move.
