Spring Has Sprung

Too Big

Too Little

Just Right

I don't know about your households, but we have been counting down the days to spring. We have been pointing out the grass turning green, budding flowers and our favorite, the "popcorn trees". Yesterday Kate came home and announced that "Spring has sprung" and we should spend the afternoon outside. Our great yard, kid friendly neighborhood streets and beautiful 70 degree temperatures were calling us and so we did.
Jackson has officially mastered the bike riding now. He can get on and start by himself, and although he has mastered the handbrake his new found confidence is encouraging him to rapidly pick up speed. (yikes!) Yesterday he rode for an hour and wanted to keep going. I have been so focused on Jackson learning to ride that I hadn't noticed how funny the other two looked on their "bikes". It reminded me of a version of Goldilocks but this time it was Too Big, Too Small, and Just Right. Kate outgrew her bike and helmet 1 year ago. Ava is riding Kate's scooter because she doesn't even have a bike and she wears Kate's helmet which is obviously too big for her. Jackson has a brand new bike and is all set. I guess it's a good thing that the girls birthdays are coming up because they need bikes and helmets!
Note-These pictures were taken almost 2 months ago but they captured what I saw yesterday except even funnier since the kids seem to have sprouted another inch since then!
