A Scooter for Olin

Last Thursday we got Olin a scooter as a fun treat amongst all the recent change.  However, a meltdown on the way out of the store over a toy fire truck made us reluctant to give him his new scooter right away.  

As a result, we devised a system where Olin could earn "stars" for star behavior and once he earned 10 stars, the scooter was his.  Josh and Olin even made the cutest little chart to track stars earned that we hung on the refrigerator.  Unfortunately, our little guy has not been listening as well as we would like so it took him until yesterday to earn that last star, but earn it he did and he finally got that scooter.  And he so cutely said "thank you, Daddy! thank you, Mommy!" when we gave it to him

He is not really riding it yet - he mostly walks it around the house like it's a horse, but I am confident that he is going to pick it up in no time and will be zooming through the park all summer long.  Also, I can't get enough of him in that helmet... so cute!
