When Aunt Beth was visiting recently we went ice skating. Ally's first time on ice skates. We talked about it beforehand and she said she would sit an watch first. Then when we got there that is exactly what she did. It was an outdoor rink, and a typical February day, so about 35 degrees, but she sat and watched for about 15 minutes before we could coax her out on the ice.
Aunt Beth was a pro on skates.
It took mama a while to get her "skate legs" I did not skate.
When she was ready Ally ventured out on to the ice.
She held on to the rail all the way around the rink, Aunt Beth holding her hand the whole way. But one lap was enough for her. After that is was back to sitting and watching with mommy.
But a good time was had by all. And when we got home Ally went right to sleep for a 2 hours nap. Ice skating / ice watching is hard work!

She looks rather freaked out when she is skating! I couldn't see her face while we were on the ice...
