A Lucas and Mommy Date

Clint had a meeting to go to Sunday night, so Lucas and I decided to take a walk together. He has been enjoying riding his bike lately. He can't reach the pedals very well, but his little feet can run on the ground like the Flintstones! He

can get going pretty fast! And he does not want any help! So, he rode his bike, and I had to almost jog along to keep up with him. He knows the way to the park, so he took us there. Usually at the park, he goes a little crazy and runs all over. But this time, we just sat together and relaxed. Maybe he was tired from the bike riding?! It was nice to have him just be calm for a little bit!

About halfway home he got off his bike and tried to run back to the park because he decided he DID want to slide after all! His bike rides generally consist of some major tantrum throwing, me dragging him and his bike along, Lucas screaming, people staring. Sounds fun, huh??? :) Luckily, I was able to convince him to get back on his bike without too much fuss. By the time we were almost home, his little legs were barely moving! I said, "Are you tired?" He said, "Yeeahhhh." "Do you want mommy to help you?" "NO!!!" So independent!

Anyway, we made it back safely, and we had a lot of fun. Here is a video of Luke riding his bike and of some of the other things we did that night! Sorry about the wind!
