The weather in the last month has been perfect for bike rides and we know it won't last so we've been doing a lot of them. The kids really like them and are getting fast. Leah keeps up really well and is the bravest when it comes to slanted pavement and bumps and other possible obstacles. Maybe she doesn't know enough to be afraid like the others. Jack and Anna stress about biking along the sidewalk where it slants down to a driveway and walk their bike over that section. Leah peddles along and just bikes on by them. Can I shame them into being more brave about it and trusting me that they won't fall? Probably not a good idea but I think on their own they've seen Leah go and realize maybe they could try it, too.
We're up in the 80's this week. I think that is warmer than normal, but I know that the 90's come regularly in April so it won't be long until these aren't as much fun anymore. Who would have guessed we'd bring our bikes out in winter and put them away for the summer?
There they go!

Luke in his 'ride'. He enjoys it now but didn't the first time we took him out a month or so ago. When we say, 'Want to go for a bike ride?' to the kids he makes an excited yell, sticks his hands in the air and tries to jump around. Then he makes a bee-line for the shoes and the garage. Sooo cute!
