Hockey Mama?

This morning I had a request for a new blog post, so here it is!  I've been meaning to get this one out for  a while now but sometimes there just isn't enough time in the day...or week...or month, you get the drift!

Anyway, last month using the money we got for christmas, we splurged and bought new skates, hockey sticks and helmets for Casey and Liam. We've been a little hesitant about introducing hockey to the boys for a number of reasons but soon came to realize there's no stopping them.  So, with an 'all or nothing' attitude, we went to the city to the hockey store (yep, there's a store just for hockey) and got them fully outfitted.

At the hockey store! Casey left, Liam right
Our first time out on the pond was quick and painful...Quick because it was 3 o'clock and Liam really needed a nap; and painful for Rob and I...that hunched over position isn't easy on the back. 


Liam getting laced up
Lacing up was about as far as Liam got that day...like I said, he really needed a nap. 
We didn't have one of those skating aids at first so it was pretty difficult but Casey did really well and was just starting to find his balance by the end.

More to come on this... :)
