Last summer we got Lil a balance bike and a few days later she saw a Hello Kitty Big Girl Bike at Target and has been talking about it every since. Because we had just bought the balance bike and well because she was too little for a Big Girl Bike we have been telling her that we will get it for her when the weather gets warmer this spring. As soon as we got paid this month we headed to Target and got the Hello Kitty Big Girl Bike. Lily was in heaven.
A few days before we bought the bike we ordered her a doll bike seat so her Buddies could go for a ride. This was a BIG hit.
Here’s Lil’s first ride.
She spent way more time using her breaks than going forward. But it didn’t take long to figure it out with Daddy’s help.
About 5 minutes later Lil was an expert (well almost).
The next day we searched high and low (I mean it, we went to I don’t know how many stores) to find elbow and knee pads. Hello Kitty of course. We finally found them at Walmart.
We just can’t stop going to the Zoo and Aquarium. We went to the aquarium a week or so ago and had a blast.
We bought Lil a camera for Christmas because she loves to take pictures. She had a great time taking pictures at the aquarium.
The best part was the octopus. Every other time we’ve been there he’s just a glorified rock on the bottom of the exhibit if you can see him at all. This time he was showing off.
We have been taking advantage of the snow and cold weather lately. I hate playing outside when it’s hot, so this snow has been great. And I’m getting some really good pictures out of the deal. These pictures are from the last couple of times we have played in the snow.
I really love taking pictures of the crab apple trees.
My little photographer.
Lil looks at the trees and says ‘The trees have winter coats on’. I love her mind.
This week we finally had perfect snow for a snowman. By the way before moving to Montana I never would have known that not all snow works for snowmen, but it’s totally true.
