A New Favorite

A loves many things. She loves her blanket, her binky (yes, she still has a pacifier and I'm 100% pro binky), her bunny and many other favorites as well. However, when it comes to playtime, A definitely has a new favorite!

A new bike carrier. An absolute favorite. After our family dinner, the Iron Chef and I have tried to make a point to take A to the park, for a walk, or on a bike ride. Her favorite lately has definitely been going on a bike ride. Since she is still signing A TON, if we ask her, "Do you want to go on a bike ride?" she will walk to the back door to the garage, point to the door, and then point to her head where her helmet goes (because the only way we go on a bike ride is if we all wear helmets on our head - safety first).

At first A was a little scared of the helmet and did not like the feeling of confinement to her head, but she's fine now. Rules are rules.





We debated back and forth about which bike carrier to purchase or if we should buy a bike trailer instead. We found this carrier online at Target and thought it looked like a simple investment that would provide hours and hours of fun. We were pleasantly surprised at the ease to put together and it fits nicely on our Schwinn bicycles.

We are even more thrilled to know we'll be able to go on bike rides most of the year now we are moving to California.
