Noah's New Bike

Noah inherited Miles' bike when Miles upgraded to a 20inch frame.  It was clear pretty quickly that it was too small for Noah (his knees were always super bent while he petaled).  While we were at the beach (post about that later) we could tell that Noah was ready for a bigger bike -- so the day after we got home we raced to the bike shop and got one.  He picked out the same bike as Miles but in green.  He LOVES it!  Noah's old bike now has training wheels on it and Griffin is zooming around.  Wonder how fast we can teach him to ride a two-wheeler?  :)

Memorial Day Weekend

We were doubly treated this Memorial Day with visits from both my and Mike's parents.  Love it when their visits cross!

It was hot -- so we spent some time at a local splash park.

After such great playtime in the blazing sun, frozen yogurt was in order!

A movie and pop's lap are always a great combination.

Griffin took awhile to eat his dinner, so Gram helped out with the good ole airplane game.

Griffin wanted to replay the favor...with a keep-away twist.

Our keep-away game was much fun too!  I did more snapping than playing, but it was still fun (i gotta get a better system of "pics for 5-10 minutes, then camera down & play" - vs only taking pictures or only playing).  The kids had a hard time remembering who was on who's team, so we decided on a 'bandana team' and a non-bandana team'.
