It has been very hot and humid here, but it hasn't stopped us from enjoying the outdoors. The boys have been riding their bikes around. Leaf has inherited Everest's first tricycle. Everest still tries to ride it sometimes, it is hilarious to see him on it.
Leaf is still hanging out in the buff, but he is peeing in a bucket more often. He was out cruising on his trike and I had to take pictures. His legs are not quite long enough to reach the pedals the whole time, so he is still not moving too much. He is having fun though.
Everest is relearning how to ride without training wheels. He was doing great at 2 1/2 with no training wheels, but for some reason we put them on for him (I think he fell and was scared to ride again.). He does really well, but he doesn't have the confidence to ride without Nathan right beside him. Once again (I was pregnant with Leaf when he first learned), I can not run beside him waiting to catch him. Nathan does it every time (sometimes even carrying Leaf-who always wants upppppppp) and never complains, even when the bike falls on him and bruises his legs. He is a great dad.
We rode the bikes around the Montessori school parking lot one evening. Everest was tired and didn't want to ride home, but Leaf did. Everest's bike has pegs on the back tires (for doing tricks-why a bike that small would have them is beyond me, but they do come in handy). Nathan was pushing the bike and then riding along with Leaf. Of course, Leaf loved it, he wants so much to be like Everest.
