new bikes!!

over the weekend, jim and i took a break from painting to purchase new bikes! jessica, james and i all have new bikes now. we also found a cute little trike for jenna at the DI - really solid and in great condition. it even has a little bell on it. we bought her a new basket to adorn the new tricycle.

on monday, during naptime, we revealed to jessica her new bike. she was ecstatic! right away, jim spent time teaching jessica how to ride her new bike. he was an awesome teacher! it was fun to watch them together.

when james and jenna woke from their naps, they tried out their bikes, too. we quickly learned that jenna's legs aren't long enough for her new, pink trike - so she'll be using the other one for now. james quickly hopped on his new bike and has a great time riding up and down the street.

in addition to the bikes, we bought a couple trailers - one for jess to ride behind one of us and another for james and jenna to sit in. with jim having monday off, we seized the opportunity to hit the trails!! first, we rode the new trailers up and down our cul de sac - then, we were on our way!
