Bike Update

Luke wanted his bike in bed with him last night. We didn't go that far. We let him sleep on his flip couch on the floor. The bike was parked just at his feet and he had to sleep with his helmet on.

We did move him to his bed before we went to sleep. Then between 11:30 and 1:30 he was up at least 3 times wanting to ride his bike. It was a 'fun' night.

Luke ate his breakfast with the helmet on too. He did however take it off part way through his bowl of cereal and then shortly after that, he fell off the stool. It figures!

New Ride

Luke learned to pedal his tricycle a few months ago. Since then, he has been obsessed with riding things...his tricycle, scooter, tractor, basically anything with wheels. Since then, we wanted to get him a bike for his birthday and we found this one today. We even let the bike eat dinner with us tonight.

The Lightning McQueen helmet and elbow pads cost more than the bike!!

He loves the bike! We showed it to him and his response after riding it was, "Daddy, I love that bike!" I know his little legs will be tired tomorrow!

I've Seen it All!!!

I've officially seen it all!! Last Saturday Craig, Luke, Grandma Renee and I went to watch Kyle in a demolition derby. Not just any derby, but a lawn tractor derby. Only in Carroll County!!! Kyle spent a lot of time preparing for this. He didn't do so well in the tractor derby, but his friend Jessy did. It was the craziest thing I've ever seen. These guys were knocking each other over and they would just jump up, flip the tractor back over and keep going. Kyle also ran in the truck heat and did great, but I don't have any pictures of that. The tractor above is Jessy's. Kyle's Tractor

Mallory Update

Mallory visited her cardiologist today. Over the past few months we have been weaning her off one of her blood pressure medications. She has been completely off this medicine for a month now. When her blood pressure was checked today, it was on the high side, so her doctor upped one of her other medications to hopefully help lower her blood pressure. She had an EKG and an Echocardiogram. The good news is that the blood flow through her aorta looks great!

Here are some recent pictures of Mallory.

Luke Update

Here are some recent pictures of Luke. He can finally peddle his tricycle!!!

Mowing the yard. We're training him for the real thing soon.

Mr. Potato Head's glasses don't fit Luke well.

On the Hunt

Here are some pictures of Luke and Mallory searching for eggs a few weeks back. No eggs under here!

Mallory started walking really well, just before Easter.

Happy Easter

Luke got new Thomas the Train undies in his Easter basket and a Lightning McQueen hat. He was ecstatic. Mallory was deprived and got some eggs with Smarties in them.
She was happy though!
