Mama came home from work to a grouchy, frustrated family this evening. So we went out for a ride outside after dinner.
It’s amazing how a little open water and exercise can restore their mood.
Skateboard Break
Garage
Lately we have been using our garage more. We move one car out to guest parking then the kids set up camp with all their “vehicles” (i.e. scooters, bikes, and skateboards) along with camping chairs, a table, and snacks. Today, Mama took over the table to do some work on her computer.
Lonely Playground
The kids rode their scooters around the neighborhood today and stopped to take a look at the playground that has had caution tape all over it for the last few weeks.
Family Run
We went for an afternoon family run. Peanut didn’t last too long so it was a good thing we brought the jogging stroller along. We like this back route because it’s not as crowded.
Kung Fu Moves
Peanut loves Kung Fu movies as much as his Dada. Today, he tried to imitate some moves. He said that last move was “part of the routine” but “still hurt a lot”. These are words of a true martial artist.
Side by Side
I still can’t get over the fact that both kids can ride bikes side by side now. They are ready to ride to school this fall for the first day of school! Let’s hope school will actually open in August.
Ride and Run
This afternoon, the kids rode their bikes while Mama and Dada ran with them. Peanut is getting really good at riding his bike. He just needs a little more practice with getting started on his own.
Push-ups
“Push-up time!”
