Blue Skies & Bike Rides

We've had some amazing weather the last couple days...

And we've spent almost every minute of daylight outside soaking it up before it disappears again...

And the cherry on top is that Ben finally decided to give riding his big bike another try. You see, he's the stubborn type, and when he couldn't get the pedaling thing down right away this past summer, he gave up and didn't want a thing to do with that darn bike. I randomly pulled it out of the garage a couple days ago and he hopped right on and took off like a pro... and hasn't wanted to do anything but ride it since! The only thing he needed help with was slowing down and stopping...

So, we had a quick lesson on how to...

No problem. Mo had fun watching and doing what he does best...

And he has his most prized possessions (diapey, bear blanket, and binky) with him at all times these days. When he wasn't wandering the, thankfully very dead, streets as he tried to keep up with brother, he took a few minutes to check his messages (he's very popular)...

Apparently, they were a little too personal to share with me...

After taking care of his personal matters, he waited patiently to hear back from whoever it was...

Or maybe he was just waiting for an invitation from his cool big brother...

Hope you all have a beautiful day!
