Trade-ins

Last year's models:                                                   

The bigger upgrades this year make it easier for family bike rides... How much fun this summer is going to be!!!  We're even hoping to get them both off training wheels... we'll see.  Hannah is more cautious.  Oliver basically just goes as fast as he can.  An insight to their personalities, a bit.



Our first family bike ride was on May 22

A word

Evend - The kids use this word in place of "too" or "also" or "even"
So they will say, "I have one evend", or, "I'll bring my ball evend".

Can you teach me some moves?

The latest craze in the house is the kids putting on "dancing shows".  At least twice a day we go into Hannah's room where she turns her music up full blast and she and Oliver dance their little hearts out.  Her audience has to buy tickets (with real money... pennies, but still very entrepreneurial) and then the dancing begins.  It's adorable... completely wild and crazy, with some "moves" thrown in.  We've seen disco, walking like Egyptians, breakdancing and all sorts of official moves that they practice and throw into the mix.  At the end, flourishing bows.  Hannah tries so hard to keep a straight face, but is so pleased with herself the whole way through that now and then the little smiles escape, she glances to see if we are looking, and she can't help asking, "did you see that move?"

Hannah, my baby, we most certainly did see that move.  We love to watch you be creative.  You are totally adorable.  Oliver has so much fun trying to keep up with you as you go.  You are both so full of energy and such fun!!  It is fun that we come up with new moves during the day so that the evening concert has something new for Daddy.  He loves it!
