He's always sort of having to do whatever Owen wants to do. He's taking soccer lessons right now along side Owen and really doesn't seem to enjoy it...but since we have nothing better to do while Owen runs around at practice for an hour...we are doing it.
Today, Owen wanted to go to "The Jump Place" as our family outing. Adam has hated the jump place in the past. Too much trying to jump and walk on uneven and bouncy surfaces when he's just barely learned how to walk himself. Add a bunch of older kids who are literally bouncing off the walls, and it's just not his jam. Today we tried it again and he lasted about 20 minutes before he was completely done with the place. As a last ditch effort, I let him try the big slides. It's a little nerve wracking because adults aren't really supposed to accompany these kids on the structures. I could have gone in to rescue him (of course), but I couldn't make it any more fun for him...that was up to him. So, we put him in the bounce house and Owen directed him to the ladder. After figuring out how to climb up an inflatable ladder that is moving and shaking because of other bouncing kids, he slid down. Up and down all by himself. Then he went again. And again. And again. This was about the 6th or 7th out of 19 or 20 times.
