The bike buggy

Our next door neighbors gave us a new toy. It's a bike buggy that can also be a double stroller and it's actually really nice and hardly been used. I had to go online to find the manual that goes with it so I would know how to attach it to the bike, but it was easy enough to find and very easy to attach to the bike too.

The hard part was actually riding the bike. It actually wasn't as hard as I thought pulling around both kids, but there are no flat areas around where we live, so while it's great fun to go downhill, it always means there will be an uphill somewhere. So I took them 3 laps around our neighborhood and Braden took them 1 lap. Here's a little video clip. As we pass our house, we're on a downward slant, so check out our super-fastness.

The kids wanted to keep going, but the adults were too tired, so we'll try again maybe today.

We've had a lot of rain, so just before bathtime, the kids were outside finding puddles of water on the deck and playing in them. Then Blythe started getting water and putting it in Ethan's hair and giving him mohawks and crazy hairdo's. Which she called "hairdudes". Probably not a bad term for male hairdo's actually.
