Today would be a good day to be a what...?

i used to tell jaden 'today would be a good day to be a... duck (or kite- or whatever)' so one day he said to me 'aunt stephy what would today be a good day to be a what?'

so.....

Today (Wednesday) would be a good day to be a... kite.

The last few days and most of the weekend- would be a good day to be a... duck.

North of here a few days ago- would be a good day to be a... snowman!

anyway i think of that anytime we have some kind of weather that is somewhat extreme- and thought i would share it!

my mom is coming home tonight- i'm going with dad and katie to pick her up in motown around 10pm. i'm know she has had a good time visiting G&G Yeager, her friend Debbie in CA, and all of G&G's friends too- BUT i think she is ready to be home (aka- missing the boys mostly).

hmm well... the end...

Spoiled??? Nah!!!!!

Little Jesse???


He can reach the foot pegs but not the ground.


He was so happy!

The helmet as well as boots, pants, and chest protector come with it.

And so did the training wheels.

he had so much fun- as soon as we got home from picking the bike up (in Bad Axe) he wanted to ride down to grandpa and grandma's to show it off. so we did- jesse and i running next to him all the way- we got down there- NO ONE WAS HOME- we went to the basement to get warmed up then ran back home. on the way down gunner was a little unsure about the throttle (how to work it) but on the way home he had it down! you can control how fast it can go with a screw by the throttle grip- the guy we bought it from had it wide open for his older kids- and we found the screw is missing- so gunner a few times would take right off and jesse had to grab his coat to keep him from getting too far away- and let me tell ya- when you are on foot- that little bike can go a lot faster than you would think it could- so catching him was crucial! this is his birthday present- he doesn't really realize that yet- but i don't think it would do any good to tell him- he wouldn't get it anyway! on the way home from Bad Axe we told him he needed to go to sleep- he was wound! he did finally lay his head back and close his eyes- after a few minutes (just when we thought he was out) he turned his head around to see in the back of the truck so he could see his bike- never said a word- turned back and went to sleep- like he just wanted to make sure it was for real and that it was really back there!
