Also have a question. M asked Santa for a skateboard and helmet this past week and I don’t think he would do well with one, so I didn’t get it. He mentioned it today and I felt kind of guilty that I didn’t get it. He didn’t make a big deal about it, just asked where it was. I told him skateboards are for 6 year olds and maybe he would get one next year. I don’t even know where he got the idea. Would anyone else have bought a skateboard? C has been asking for one for 2 yrs. I told him we could get one this summer but I want to find someone who could help teach him since I will be of no use there. Last summer I got him a two wheel razor scooter and told him that was the next step to a skateboard. That tided him over for a while. I believe @cagoldis A is using one already. Yeah, Dude has had a skateboard since his birthday and had previously practiced a little on my sister’s, with her help. He wears elbow and knee pads, plus a helmet, of course. He’s getting better, but I wouldn’t exactly call what he does skateboarding LOL. More like clinging to the nearest adult for dear life then getting up the courage to push off a few times, slowly and gently. He’s pretty cautious by nature. I agree that a scooter is a great precursor and he has had a Razor for a couple years. He practically lives on that thing in the summer and we take him up to the jogging trail with that. |

Yay, tallb! chrisy01 is definitely the DL expert. As to Legoland, the boys had a blast. This time of year, I think you’re okay to spend only one day there because I doubt you’ll want to do the water park and the crowds shouldn’t be too terrible. They do have a lot of areas and rides that cater to little kids so N would have plenty to keep her occupied. |

My family typically always does place cards for holiday meals, typically Thanksgiving. I've never thought anything about it But for just 6 people? Oh. No. That's weird! |

I think she must have had second thoughts about it. It ended up being 9 people, but 4 of them were kids, so there really was no point for it. |
