The New Bike Trailer

Needless to say, Aidan was just a little excited to hop into his new ride. Since we live just a block from the Sammamish River Bike Trail (which hooks up to the Burke-Gilman trail in Seattle) we decided to find a way for us all to go biking together. Sorry Ruby!

On our first excursion, we rode a few miles down the trail into Woodinville and had dinner at the Redhook Brewery. This place is a great place to take kids. Read: it's really loud. So Aidan can yell his head off and nobody seems to notice.

To our dismay, Aidan wasn't as excited to get in the trailer to return home. He cried the whole way back. Darn! Next time we'll try getting out of the house a little earlier in the day in hopes that the timing will make all of the difference. Otherwise, maybe Ruby will have a new mode of transportation.

It's Been Too Long

Last week I took Aidan to the park in the early morning. We were the only souls up at that hour, and the only people at the playground. Aidan decided to take a walking tour around the whole place and since many of you haven't seen him in action, I made a little movie of him walking.

It's a little long, but worth it! More pictures to come--we've got lots. It's been a good summer here with amazing weather, many outdoor adventures, and visits with friends and family.

How have you all been?
