Sunday

Sunday we didn't do much, slept in and I got up and worked out and then we all decided to go for a walk/ride after that. So I got a lot of steps in before noon this day!
Presley has been getting interested again in riding her bike. We practiced a bit this spring but she just wasn't THAT interested. Then she got really used to her scooter and has been riding that around all summer but we figured that would be good 'balance' practice for her.

Steve took the training wheels off the little bike so she could reach the ground comfortably with her feet and she just practiced going down the drive way balancing, over and over and over again until she finally GOT IT! Then she started pedaling and she was off! She went down the street, got off, turned the bike around, over and over again all afternoon! It was awesome to watch. She wasn't comfortable turning quite yet but she got that down yesterday when she got home from KTC and immediately got on her bike! I've got some better pictures of her that I will have to download soon.

That afternoon we went to my parents to get together for Sam's birthday. We hung outside all evening and ate and talked while the kids played, it was so nice! Loving this weather!

Monday night we got home and Presley just rode her bike over and over again. We sat down for dinner and soon after, I was calling for P to clear her dishes and sure enough she was already outside down the street on her bike! It is so nice that we have a cul-de-sac with little traffic b/c the kids in this neighborhood rule this street! HA!

I snapped a picture of the girls this morning. This is fairly typical, they get dressed and shuffled into our room to brush their hair and teeth....instead they both end up cuddled in our bed and then we have to drag them out to go finish getting ready.
