After learning to ride comes....

a NEW bike!!! Allie got a new bike and is SO proud! Her small one was perfect to learn on, but once she got going, those tiny tires just did not go fast enough! She is ALL over the place now!! The new bike is all pink and sparkly which makes it perfect for Allie!

Look at her GO!!

It seems that Allie is determined to grow up no matter what and she has reached yet another milestone!! Today she learned to ride her bike without training wheels! She definitely does not have the same "drive to succeed" that Adysen has and was ready to give up after one fall (see picture below :), but with some encouragement and a few bribes, she managed to keep trying long enough to make it happen! :)

Happy New Year!!

We celebrated New Years Day on a Nautilus Boat - It's a 1/2 submerged boat with a regular upper deck and windows in the lower deck where you can look out! There was a stop for snorkeling and there were TONS of fish around - Jason and Adysen took advantage and although the water was a little rough, they enjoyed the snorkeling. Kelsey was reading a book during the first part of the ride which is why she is not in the family photo! :) It's fun being a tourist!!!
