It's like Riding a bike . . . and other stuff

We took the kids for a walk this week. We told the older kids that they could ride their bikes. Sammie was so excited. Part way through our walk, Matt decided to help Sammie learn how to work her brake. The girl just doesn't get it. Sammie could apply the brake if she pedaled for 5 seconds, but anything longer than that and she would forget and start to freak out. This is going to talk a while to master. It was fun however to watch father/daughter enter this stage of life. I am trying to figure out when she grew up.



On a different note, the twins have had a few firsts in the last week or so. As of May 23rd, they no longer share a bed. They are just shy of being 7 months. When we would go check on them, we would find something similar to this. . .



They kept waking each other up and would kick one another in the face. Currently Lucy sleeps in the crib and Logan is now in the port-a-crib, until we figure out a more permanent solution.

Both babies have learned to sit on there own. They aren't to steady yet, but are learning fast. Logan has also begun to creep. He will widdle his way to whatever toy he has his eye on. Lucy is slowly learning but for now rolls to her desired destination.

Finn is at the same stage as S with the whole bike riding thing. He freaks if he goes to fast and forgets he's in control if he'd just remember to break. Your kids are so cute and getting so big!

I love the picture of the twins all tangeled in each other and asleep. How sad you finally had to seperate them, but I guess it was time. :) Your kiddos are looking good and getting so big. Where does the time go? Hugs, A

I'm so glad you got a picture of them sleeping together, all intertwined. Those two are so cute.
