the warm-up

Saturday continued to warm up, which was a nice change of pace after a long stretch of bitter cold weather.

We decided, nearly 3 weeks after Christmas, that we'd finally try out that new bike Tyler got for Christmas. He did pretty well. He fell once, immediately announced that he thought he'd need an xray, and then determined (with a little nudge from me) that he was okay and he'd survive. Hopped right back on "and just tried again". He's pretty fast, and I now actually need to jog a bit with the jogging stroller to keep up. As you can tell, he's a bit dramatic, so I imagine it will be a while before those training wheels come off but for now I'm happy with his progress and he LOVES his bike.

On our ride we decided to hit the playground at Ty's school. After weeks of Jason being cooped up, I figured he coudl use some fresh air. Unfortunately I hadn't planned on ending up there, so the kid ended up walking around in his blanket sleeper. By the way, rememeber how i said it warmed up a bit? Well, you know you're in NJ when all high school boys start wearing shorts because it hit all of 50 degrees!


On the way home from our walk Tyler found this tree trunk and, for some reason, thought it looked like a face and wanted his picture taken with it.
