Connor Climbing

Recently Connor took up a new hobby. Two weeks ago we joined a gym that offers indoor rockclimbing (specifically for that reason). For the first week and a half Connor would climb halfway, only to come back down- believe it or not he seemed little scared of the height. But the other night, he successfully conquered two walls and yesterday, he climbed all six of the autobelay routes. Here are some photos of his endeavors.






In other news, he is really reading now- chapter books on his own. He still likes the Black Lagoon chapter books. This past week he entered the reading-in-bed-with-flashlight phase. According to one preliminary test, his reading level is first grade, third month.

High School Musical is still a dominant force in our lives, both the movies and the soundtrack. Spring soccer practice starts next Saturday- he will meet his new teammates and run around the field.

Spring Break is close to a month away. We are thinking about taking our rockclimbing skills on the road, either to the Smoky Mountains or Arkansas.
