The other day at school Adam’s teacher told me she’s very impressed with Adam’s upper body strength and how he can whip across the monkey bars. A lot of the kids in the class have a tough time doing it.

I got to thinking, Adam is so strong in his arms because he’s constantly playing on his rope swing out back and doing tricks and pulling himself up. He gets sort of “puffed up” when you mention his big muscles. Its kind of cute actually.

Yesterday at Pop and Granma’s pool he was swinging on a rope there and was showing off how he can do full on pull-ups. Pop was impressed and told him if he could do TEN of them he’d get to go to Toy’s R Us and pick out a BIG prize. So, Adam is now motivated to try to get to TEN. He can only do about THREE right now. It was pretty cute!
