Bike Riding

Most afternoons/evenings at our house are spent outside with the kids riding their bikes. (That is if its not snowing!!!) They absolutely love love riding their bikes. Recently we inherited a "Big Boy Bike" from, to be honest I don't know who, but I think it was our neighbor. (either that or Matt stole it from somewhere;) So Zack has been dying to ride his "new" bike and tonight Matt switched his training wheels from his smaller bike to his bigger bike. As he was doing so Sara picked up the smaller bike and started riding it around without training wheels!!! Whatever happened to teaching your first child how to ride their bike!! Needless to say we were then taking her training wheels off her princess bike and off she rode like she had been riding forever!

So here are some pictures of her riding her bike without training wheels and Zack on his new "Big Boy Bike". Now all I need to do is run to the store and load up on band aids, cause I am sure we are in for a lot of scraps and bruises!

Highlights

There have been 2 major things that have happened this week that I just had to comment on! First My sister Alli had her baby yesterday, he was 6lbs 7oz and 19in. (I'm sure she'll have really cute pictures to post) They named him Tyler James and he is a doll, he looks so perfect. Everyone seems to think that he looks just like Blake. My Bro-in-law Michael and his wife Tiffany had a baby a week in a half ago too. He is so cute too! They named him Christian Michael. He weighed 8lbs 5oz. (almost as much as Curtis!) Both baby cousins are healthy and we couldn't be happier to have them!! (For any of you that are interested both were boys, obviously, and that still makes Sara the only girl on both sides!!) I will say that this past week I have been a little baby hungry when holding the babies, however then I come back home and it only takes about 15 minutes at home to realize that if I had another one soon I would indefinitely go insane!!! I'll stick to 3 kids for another yr or so!

So the second thing I just have to comment on is AMERICAN IDOL!!! I have never watched a season before this one and I just have to say that I love it! Last nights performances helped me decide who my favorite American idol is! David Cook won the competition to me last night!! I loved his performance and will be buying his CD as soon as he gets one! I told Matt last night as we were watching it that I wanted him to download his performance last night! I can't wait to hear the whole version! My other favorite is cute little David Archuleta. He has an incredible voice- probably the best on the show- and he's a local! We voted for both Davids! I can't believe that I like this show so much! Well I hope all of your weeks go as good as ours!
