Recent Happenings

This winter our son has made the big leap to riding on his own with amazing proficiency! Now, I ride with Evie in the Burley trailer and Leyton rides beside me and away we go. He's such a great rider we end up riding for several miles and Evie sometimes falls asleep. It's so fun to ride with Leyton on the road and I love that Evie is still content in the trailer. She really likes the trail-a-bike (a bike that sticks out behind my bike with pedals and handlebars) but I don't love having her on it while I'm watching him so closely, so she gets to ride that when Jared is with us.

As I reflect on our recent biking adventures, it makes me so thankful for this time we have with our children and grateful for healthy and happy kids. They are such a blessing to me!

Here is my baby as she approaches her 4th birthday in exactly 1 week.
She is still so little and precious!

He wanted to try a mohawk...but he didn't really like it.

So cool - you crazy Portland-biking-family. Hard to believe Evie is going to be 4 in a week! I think Leyton looks more like Jared in that photo.

She doesn't look so little! She is losing her toddler cheeks! Miss you!

That pizza looked delicious!! :0)

And the pics of your kiddos are so cute. Evie's face has matured so much since I last saw her---and LOVE the haircut on Leyton! Sweet!!
