A new bike!!

One thing about des: he loves bikes. LOVES them. We could be running and playing at a park having a great time and some kid rolls up on two wheels and it's all over. Have to go see the bike.

Our neighbors have a lot of kid toys out front of their house and that's the first place Des goes if he can cross the great gravel plains of the driveway. (Usually I let him out without his shoes so he stays in the yard--tricky, tricky!!) His favorite toys are the McDonalds colored ride-in car thing (you know, the one with the yellow top and the red bottom...with the arched top?) and the pink big-wheel.

I was driving past a few yard sales on Saturday when there it was. And for the right price too. Two dolla'.

Ladies and gents, meet Des new favorite toy!

Loves it. LOOOOVES it. Like can't get him off of it to come inside because it's really time to eat lunch and mom is starving and can we please just go eat some CHEESE?? RASPBERRIES?? ICECREAM?? He wasn't buying it. He rolls up and down and up and down our little 12 foot walkway over and over again. And then tries to ride in the grass (doesn't work) and tries to ride in the gravel drive-way (doesn't work) so he rolls up and down the walkway again. He can't even reach the peddles but that's alright with him. He has his own bike and it makes him happy!
