Two-Wheeler School

Meg is such a great big sister! She often has "Baby School" for Garrett where she reads him books and asks him questions. He's very smart and always points at the right answer.

This time Meg focused her efforts on Davis and the bike. After about half hour or so, Davis came in to tell me the good news..."I can ride Meg's bike without training wheels!" I had to see this for myself. After showing me that he could indeed ride Meg's bike without training wheels, we decided we should make a movie of it. I hope you enjoy the two clips. Please excuse my commentary. (Do I really sound like that?) I think it's not bad for a low budget "film." Maybe Sundance will pick it up. :)

I told Davis, once he finally stopped, that we'd get him a bigger helmet the next day. He looked and me and said, "I like pink." Then he got back on Meg's bike and was ready to ride again!

Just so you know, Davis did get a new helmet the next day. Scott also took the training wheels off of his bike. He's now covered in bruises and scratches, but he sure is having a great time!

We're Under Attack!!!

As you can see, we've been invaded by toy soldiers.

One afternoon I came downstairs and had to chuckle.

Davis was playing with army guys and they were strategically placed around the front room. This clearly gives them the best vantage point.

They stormed all over the "Welcome" sign.

Apparently it was serious business!

Scott and I noticed that each row has a different group of army guys.

They are sorted very nicely, don't you think?
