Ready to Ride

As a special surprise, we finally got Noah a bicycle on Easter!

He had his tricycle, which he enjoyed for a few months when we first got here, but once he was told he had to wear his helmet to ride it, his interest really started to wane. Luckily, he loved riding around on his Big Wheel but he was starting to get too big for it.

First time on his Cars bicycle :-)
 
 One very happy boy!
 
 
Noah and his friend Lauren decided to swap bikes (and helmets) the other night
He was soooo excited about the pink bike!
The bike swap didn't last long since neither one of them fit very well on the other's bike, haha

As we all know, Noah has always pushed to get to the next level as soon as possible (i.e. walking and crawling early). So it should come as no surprise that after less than 2 months of training wheels, Noah decided he wanted to take them off and he's now officially riding his bike "like a big kid"!

Memorial Day

This year, we spent Memorial Day as a family out on our beach here at Barking Sands!

The waves were a little rougher than we had hoped so we didn't spend a ton of time in the water, but we still had a nice day together and Lucas really enjoyed eating a lot of sand :-P

It's amazing the amout of stuff that is needed to take two young kids to the beach!

Lucas's new favorite activity is "helping" Mommy unload the dishwasher ;-)
