Big Girl BIKES!

We were going to wait for Santa...but the girl's knees were banging against their tricycles and they really, really, really love riding their bikes. So we took the girls to Target and let them pick out their first big girl bikes (with training wheels, of course!)! Our fashion diva, Riley of course picked a Disney Princess bike as she loves all things princesses and anything girly. Her bike has all of the princesses all over it and is pink and has streamers and she is in love with it. Reagan chose a Lightning McQueen bike from the movie CARS.  Ha! Classic. She loves it and says she's "blazing fast" on it. They are amazing on these things and are so proud of themselves.  I took them to the park with their bikes the other day and they rode all around this bike path before we played on the playground. They were so fast that I had to run really fast to catch up to them. Then this past weekend we took our first ever family bike ride. Matt and I couldn't get over the fact that the girls are old enough to be riding alongside of us on a bike ride. I don't think I've even been ON my bike since they were born! They rode all the way around our neighborhood which is about a mile and a half. They were tired at the end but had a ball and we were just amazed at what big girls we have!!!! Wahhh...they are growing up too fast!!! SLOW DOWN, TIME!!!
(Adding a picture in here from last week...Riley picked out the girl's outfits complete with their headbands and then asked me to go outside so that I could take their pictures and "send it to everyone" HA! We're in so much trouble!)!
