Assorted goings on

Our weekend appeared to be very busy, but now I can't really remember what we did. It's probably that prego brain kicking in (hey, I've got 5.5 more months of using that as an excuse and I'm going to make the most of it!!)

Aidan got a new bike - a shiny, red, 16 in frame beauty. It's a tad too big for him, but I figure he'll be able to use it this summer and next. He gave it a try yesterday, and after some initial grumbling ("Mummy, I don't like my new bike - it's too hard!") He figured it out and was zipping along like always.

Quinn loves his new tricycle (thanks Nanna and Nannu), but he's really excited to try out his new bike seat on our bike. This one sits in front so it should be interesting to see how he responds to it because now he'll actually be able to see in front of him (instead of staring at our backs).

And, in more exciting bike news, we also got Aidan a tandem so that he can 'ride' with us. Essentially, it's a bar that connects my bike to a single wheel, seat and handle bars which he will use. He assures me that if I get too tired pedalling he'll be able to pedal for both of us.

The weather's supposed to be pretty nice on the weekend, so hopefully we'll be able try all the new equipment out without any serious injuries!!
