Snowmobile

Cal did some trade work for a little 60 kitty cat snowmobile.  When he brought it home Addie was so excited that she couldn't wait to ride it. So Cal started it up. At first he tried to ride with her until she knocked him off and he got road rash. Then he let her ride on the grass from the back to the front. She absolutely loved it. This is going to be big hit around the neighborhood when the snow flies.

No training wheels

Addie stayed at grandpa and grandma's last weekend because I was over a big craft day and Cal was out of town. While there she learned how to ride a bike without training wheels and she is only 3 1/2 years old. I do need to add that this bike had a flat tire and she wasn't wearing any shoes, helmet, and was in a swimming suit. But since then she has learned that shoes, a helmet and clothes are a good idea. She feels like a big girl now (like the other girls in the circle) and just loves to ride her bike that she has learned how to open the garage door.

Improving

 Over the last month we have been working to improve our house.  From adding cabinets in the laundry room, crown molding in the kitchen and fencing our yard. We have lived in our house for 8 years and it has taken us this long to make some bid improvements to the house.

All Done!!
The fully fenced yard only held Addie in for 1 day until she learned how to carry a chair the gates and  open. That same day I bought pad locks for 3 of the 4 gates.
