The Boy Has Skills

Shane is a gross motor skills kid. I've been noticing a lot of development lately. 

It used to be I would roll a ball by him and he'd stand still and watch it pass. Once it was stopped, he run over and grab it. Now, he chases and intercepts. Sometimes he's even successful! Going from passive watching to reacting and sometimes succeeding is big.

Then we went to the park and Shane surprised me again.


Shane's first attempt at the moving steps resulted in a bump and tears. Today, he was a pro. I told Shane to "hold on tight!" and showed how to reach from one pole to the next. 

He listened.

Then he made it look easy.

Big improvement!


I got a few other action shots to post afterward.


Shane's a high-energy boy!
