his big sister's bike

The bike lover strikes again :)


Isaac daily asks to ride Lydia's bike.  He's actually pretty good, considering his feet barely reach the peddles.... it's pretty impressive how much ground he actually covers.  Julianna likes to coach him "look straight ahead buddy, it's the most important thing to do when you are riding a bike".

She herself has heard that advice about six trillion times, and it hasn't sunk in yet, so I'm encouraged to see Isaac is getting an early start with this particular bike riding tip. 


The bike fun doesn't stop at riding.  Sunday afternoon Matt and the kids washed bikes - one adult bike, two child bikes and two riding toys.  Lots of water was enjoyed by all.  And the bikes were actually cleaner at the end of the afternoon.  Success. 


This afternoon we are going to the pool!  The girls and I checked it out Friday and it is open .... with the weirdest, most UN-user friendly hours ever.  Oh well, that seems to be the way things tend to work here.  We'll enjoy it regardless - when it's open, that is :)

That was some serious bike washing going on - what fun to have three little helpers! And that Isaac is going to be riding on his own real soon! We love you!
