Pete and Re-Pete

"Extreme sports and building stuff" describes Pete to a tee. Over the last few months, I've started to see striking similarities in Gavin. Yesterday, he spent the first half of the day diving back and forth over his ride-on toy (in our house, this is an extreme sport). Seriously, he must have climbed back and forth 20 times. The second half of the day was spent with the Mega Blocks that came with his firetruck. He carried his blocks around the room, stopping here and there to put them together and take them apart again. He also threw in a little reading time. He LOVES books. That part doesn't sound a lot like Pete, unless it's a car manual or Auto Trader, but I think we may have a future engineer on our hands.......... or pro snowboarder??

Pete's first babies. Yes, we did have 1/2 of a car in our garage. Hard to see in the picture, but the front 1/2 is missing. And yes, it was up on blocks!

Mountain biking....... Before the downhill race in Durango, Colorado.

Gavin WILL NOT be doing this!

Snowboarding in Snowshoe, WV (Pete is in orange). As Gavin starts to look more like a little boy and less like a baby, he's also looking more and more like Pete! We used to get asked, "which one of you does he look like"? Now, everywhere we go people say with no hesitation that Emery looks like me and Gavin looks like Pete.

What a cute pair....
